txEffect is a small library for integrating Twisted and Effect, mostly around Deferred<->Effect interoperation. Documentation is available at https://txeffect.readthedocs.org/
Effect is a library for helping you write purely functional code by isolating the effects (that is, IO or state manipulation) in your code. Documentation is available at https://effect.readthedocs.org/.
Perform an Effect to get a Deferred with txeffect.perform.
from txeffect import perform d = perform(my_dispatcher, some_effect) d.addCallback(log.msg)
Implement a performer for an intent that returns a Deferred with txeffect.deferred_performer.
from twisted.internet.defer import succeed from txeffect import deferred_performer @deferred_performer def perform_foo(dispatcher, intent): return succeed('hello, world')
Perform standard Delay and parallel effects using asynchronous implementations with txeffect.make_twisted_dispatcher.
from twisted.internet import reactor from txeffect import make_twisted_dispatcher dispatcher = make_twisted_dispatcher(reactor) p_effs = parallel([Effect(Delay(5), Effect(Delay(3), Effect(Delay(1))))]) perform(dispatcher, p_effs).addCallback( lambda: print("5 seconds have passed!"))
Working examples can be found at the effect-examples GitHub repo.
Thanks to Rackspace for allowing me to work on this project, and having an excellent open source employee contribution policy
There is a #python-effect IRC channel on irc.freenode.net.
