`kiwiPy`_ is a library that makes remote messaging using RabbitMQ (and possibly other message brokers) EASY. It was
designed to support high-throughput workflows in big-data and computational science settings and is currently used
by `AiiDA`_ for computational materials research around the world. That said, kiwiPy is entirely general and can
be used anywhere where high-throughput and robust messaging are needed.

Here's what you get:

* RPC
* Broadcast (with filters)
* Task queue messages

Let's dive in, with some examples taken from the `rmq tutorial`_. To see more detail head over to the `documentation`_.

RPC
---

The client:

.. code-block:: python

import kiwipy

with kiwipy.connect('amqp://localhost') as comm:
# Send an RPC message
print(" [x] Requesting fib(30)")
response = comm.rpc_send('fib', 30).result()
print((" [.] Got %r" % response))

`(rmq_rpc_client.py source) `_

The server:

.. code-block:: python

import threading
import kiwipy

def fib(comm, num):
if num == 0:
return 0
if num == 1:
return 1

return fib(comm, num - 1) + fib(comm, num - 2)

with kiwipy.connect('amqp://127.0.0.1') as comm:
# Register an RPC subscriber with the name 'fib'
comm.add_rpc_subscriber(fib, 'fib')
# Now wait indefinitely for fibonacci calls
threading.Event().wait()

`(rmq_rpc_server.py source) `_

Worker
------

Create a new task:

.. code-block:: python

import sys
import kiwipy

message = ' '.join(sys.argv[1:]) or "Hello World!"

with rmq.connect('amqp://localhost') as comm:
comm.task_send(message)

`(rmq_new_task.py source) `_

And the worker:

.. code-block:: python

import time
import threading
import kiwipy

print(' [*] Waiting for messages. To exit press CTRL+C')

def callback(_comm, task):
print((" [x] Received %r" % task))
time.sleep(task.count(b'.'))
print(" [x] Done")

try:
with kiwipy.connect('amqp://localhost') as comm:
comm.add_task_subscriber(callback)
threading.Event().wait()
except KeyboardInterrupt:
pass

`(rmq_worker.py source) `_

Citing
======

If you use kiwiPy directly or indirectly (e.g. by using `AiiDA`_) then please cite:

Uhrin, M., & Huber, S. P. (2020). kiwiPy : Robust , high-volume , messaging for big-data and computational science workflows, 5, 4–6. http://doi.org/10.21105/joss.02351

This helps us to keep making community software.

Versioning
==========

This software follows `Semantic Versioning`_

Contributing
============

Want a new feature? Found a bug? Want to contribute more documentation or a translation perhaps?

Help is always welcome, get started with the `contributing guide `__.

.. _Semantic Versioning: http://semver.org/

Development
===========

This package utilises `tox `__ for unit test automation, and `pre-commit `__ for code style formatting and test automation.

To install these development dependencies:

.. code-block:: bash

pip install tox pre-commit

To run the unit tests:

.. code-block:: bash

tox

For the ``rmq`` tests you will require a running instance of RabbitMQ.
One way to achieve this is using Docker and launching ``test/rmq/docker-compose.yml``.

To run the pre-commit tests:

.. code-block:: bash

pre-commit run --all

To build the documentation:

.. code-block:: bash

tox -e docs-clean

Changes should be submitted as Pull Requests (PRs) to the ``develop`` branch.

Publishing Releases
===================

1. Create a release PR/commit to the ``develop`` branch, updating ``kiwipy/version.py`` and ``CHANGELOG.md``.
2. Fast-forward merge `develop` into the `master` branch
3. Create a release on GitHub (https://github.com/aiidateam/kiwipy/releases/new), pointing to the release commit on `master`, named ``v.X.Y.Z`` (identical to version in ``kiwipy/version.py``)
4. This will trigger the ``continuous-deployment`` GitHub workflow which, if all tests pass, will publish the package to PyPi. Check this has successfully completed in the GitHub Actions tab (https://github.com/aiidateam/kiwipy/actions).

(if the release fails, delete the release and tag)
