aiohttp-json-rpc
================

Implements `JSON-RPC 2.0 Specification `_ using `aiohttp `_

+---------------+---------------+
| Protocol | Support |
+===============+===============+
| Websocket | since v0.1 |
+---------------+---------------+
| POST | TODO |
+---------------+---------------+
| GET | TODO |
+---------------+---------------+

Installation
------------

.. code-block:: shell

pip install aiohttp-json-rpc

Usage
-----

RPC methods can be added by using ``rpc.add_method()``.

All RPC methods are getting passed a ``aiohttp_json_rpc.communicaton.JsonRpcRequest``.

Server
~~~~~~

The following code implements a simple RPC server that serves the method ``ping`` on ``localhost:8080``.

.. code-block:: python

from aiohttp.web import Application, run_app
from aiohttp_json_rpc import JsonRpc
import asyncio

async def ping(request):
return 'pong'

if __name__ == '__main__':
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()

rpc = JsonRpc()
rpc.add_methods(
('', ping),
)

app = Application(loop=loop)
app.router.add_route('*', '/', rpc.handle_request)

run_app(app, host='0.0.0.0', port=8080)

Client (JS)
~~~~~~~~~~~

The following code implements a simple RPC client that connects to the server above
and prints all incoming messages to the console.

.. code-block:: html



var ws = new WebSocket("ws://localhost:8080");
var message_id = 0;

ws.onmessage = function(event) {
console.log(JSON.parse(event.data));
}

function ws_call_method(method, params) {
var request = {
jsonrpc: "2.0",
id: message_id,
method: method,
params: params
}

ws.send(JSON.stringify(request));
message_id++;
}

These are example responses the server would give if you call ``ws_call_method``.

.. code-block:: html

--> ws_call_method("get_methods")
<-- {"jsonrpc": "2.0", "result": ["get_methods", "ping"], "id": 1}

--> ws_call_method("ping")
<-- {"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "ping", "params": "pong", "id": 2}

Client (Python)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There's also Python client, which can be used as follows:

.. code-block:: python

from aiohttp_json_rpc import JsonRpcClient

async def ping_json_rpc():
"""Connect to ws://localhost:8080/, call ping() and disconnect."""
rpc_client = JsonRpcClient()
try:
await rpc_client.connect('localhost', 8080)
call_result = await rpc_client.call('ping')
print(call_result) # prints 'pong' (if that's return val of ping)
finally:
await rpc_client.disconnect()

asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(ping_json_rpc())

Or use asynchronous context manager interface:

.. code-block:: python

from aiohttp_json_rpc import JsonRpcClientContext


async def jrpc_coro():
async with JsonRpcClientContext('ws://localhost:8000/rpc') as jrpc:
# `some_other_method` will get request.params filled with `args` and
# `kwargs` keys:
method_res = await jrpc.some_other_method('arg1', key='arg2')

return method_res

asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(jrpc_coro())

Features
--------

Error Handling
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All errors specified in the `error specification `_ but the InvalidParamsError are handled internally.

If your coroutine got called with wrong params you can raise an ``aiohttp_json_rpc.RpcInvalidParamsError`` instead of sending an error by yourself.

The JSONRPC protocol defines a range for server defined errors.
``aiohttp_json_rpc.RpcGenericServerDefinedError`` implements this feature.

.. code-block:: python

from aiohttp_json_rpc import RpcInvalidParamsError

async def add(request):
try:
a = params.get('a')
b = params.get('b')

return a + b

except KeyError:
raise RpcInvalidParamsError

async def add(request):
raise RpcGenericServerDefinedError(
error_code=-32050,
message='Computer says no.',
)

Error Logging
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Every traceback caused by an RPC method will be caught and logged.

The RPC will send an RPC ServerError and proceed as if nothing happened.

.. code-block:: python

async def divide(request):
return 1 / 0 # will raise a ZeroDivisionError

.. code-block::

ERROR:JsonRpc: Traceback (most recent call last):
ERROR:JsonRpc: File "aiohttp_json_rpc/base.py", line 289, in handle_websocket_request
ERROR:JsonRpc: rsp = yield from methods[msg['method']](ws, msg)
ERROR:JsonRpc: File "./example.py", line 12, in divide
ERROR:JsonRpc: return 1 / 0
ERROR:JsonRpc: ZeroDivisionError: division by zero

Publish Subscribe
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Any client of an RPC object can subscribe to a topic using the built-in RPC method ``subscribe()``.

Topics can be added using ``rpc.add_topics``.

Authentication
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The auth system works like in Django with decorators.
For details see the corresponding Django documentation.

+--------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Decorator | Django Equivalent |
+==================================================+=======================================================================================================================================================================+
| aiohttp_json_rpc.django.auth.login_required | `django.contrib.auth.decorators.login_required `_ |
+--------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| aiohttp_json_rpc.django.auth.permission_required | `django.contrib.auth.decorators.permission_required `_ |
+--------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| aiohttp_json_rpc.django.auth.user_passes_test | `django.contrib.auth.decorators.user_passes_test `_ |
+--------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

.. code-block:: python

from aiohttp_json_rpc.auth import (
permission_required,
user_passes_test,
login_required,
)

from aiohttp_json_rpc.auth.django import DjangoAuthBackend
from aiohttp_json_rpc import JsonRpc

@login_required
@permission_required('ping')
@user_passes_test(lambda user: user.is_superuser)
async def ping(request):
return 'pong'

if __name__ == '__main__':
rpc = JsonRpc(auth_backend=DjangoAuthBackend())

rpc.add_methods(
('', ping),
)

rpc.add_topics(
('foo', [login_required, permission_required('foo')])
)

Using SSL Connections
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you need to setup a secure RPC server (use own certification files for example) you can create a ssl.SSLContext instance and pass it into the aiohttp web application.

The following code implements a simple secure RPC server that serves the method ``ping`` on ``localhost:8080``

.. code-block:: python

from aiohttp.web import Application, run_app
from aiohttp_json_rpc import JsonRpc
import asyncio
import ssl

async def ping(request):
return 'pong'

if __name__ == '__main__':
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()

rpc = JsonRpc()
rpc.add_methods(
('', ping),
)

app = Application(loop=loop)
app.router.add_route('*', '/', rpc.handle_request)

ssl_context = ssl.create_default_context(ssl.Purpose.CLIENT_AUTH)
ssl_context.load_cert_chain('path/to/server.crt', 'path/to/server.key')

run_app(app, host='0.0.0.0', port=8080, ssl_context=ssl_context)

The following code implements a secure RPC client using the ``JsonRpcClient`` Python client.

.. code-block:: python

from aiohttp_json_rpc import JsonRpcClient
import ssl

async def ping_json_rpc():
"""Connect to wss://localhost:8080/, call ping() and disconnect."""
rpc_client = JsonRpcClient()
ssl_context = ssl.create_default_context(ssl.Purpose.CLIENT_AUTH)
ssl_context.load_cert_chain('path/to/server.crt','path/to/server.key')
try:
await rpc_client.connect('localhost', 8080, ssl=ssl_context)
call_result = await rpc_client.call('ping')
print(call_result) # prints 'pong' (if that's return val of ping)
finally:
await rpc_client.disconnect()

asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(ping_json_rpc())

See `aiohttp documentation `_ for more details on SSL control for TCP sockets.
