nodenet

nodenet is an asynchronous, event-driven, node-based UDP networking library for python.

This is still a work in progress. Read the TODO section.

'node-based'?

(No, I don't mean node.js.)

nodenet is centered around nodes rather than clients and servers. Each node is bound to a port and can connect to an arbitrary number of other nodes, and all of them can exchange messages in the form of 'events'. All that a node actually is is an extension of pyuv's UDP handler.

Docs

API

Read the dosctrings (help(nodenet)).

TODO

• better docs
