Python Client for Pub/Sub Lite API

stable pypi versions

Pub/Sub Lite API: is designed to provide reliable, many-to-many, asynchronous messaging between applications. Publisher applications can send messages to a topic and other applications can subscribe to that topic to receive the messages. By decoupling senders and receivers, Google Cloud Pub/Sub allows developers to communicate between independently written applications.

Compared to Google Pub/Sub, Pub/Sub Lite provides partitioned zonal data storage with predefined capacity. Both products present a similar API, but Pub/Sub Lite has more usage caveats.

See the [Google Pub/Sub Lite docs](https://cloud.google.com/pubsub/quickstart-console#before-you-begin) for more details on how to activate Pub/Sub Lite for your project, as well as guidance on how to choose between Cloud Pub/Sub and Pub/Sub Lite.

Quick Start

In order to use this library, you first need to go through the following steps:

  1. Select or create a Cloud Platform project.
  2. Enable billing for your project.
  3. Enable the Pub/Sub Lite API.
  4. Setup Authentication.

Installation

Install this library in a virtualenv using pip. virtualenv is a tool to create isolated Python environments. The basic problem it addresses is one of dependencies and versions, and indirectly permissions.

With virtualenv, it's possible to install this library without needing system install permissions, and without clashing with the installed system dependencies.
