rfoo - Fast RPC client/server module.

Maintainer: Anand Aiyer
Original Author: Nir Aides

Version: 1.3.1

rfoo (remote foo) is a fast Python RPC package which can do 160,000 RPC
calls per second on a regular PC. It includes a fast serialization module
called rfoo.marsh which extends the Python built in marshal module by
eliminating serialization of code objects and protecting against bad input.
The result is a safe to use ultra fast serializer.

Example server code:

class MyHandler(rfoo.BaseHandler):
def echo(self, str):
return str

rfoo.InetServer(MyHandler).start()

Example client code:

c = rfoo.InetConnection().connect()
Proxy©.echo(‘Hello World!’)

rconsole - included with rfoo package is a remote Python console with
auto completion, which can be used to inspect and modify namespace of a
running script.

To activate in a script do:

from rfoo.utils import rconsole
rconsole.spawn_server()

To attach from a shell do:
$ rconsole

SECURITY NOTE:
The rconsole listener started with spawn_server() will accept any local
connection and may therefore be insecure to use in shared hosting
or similar environments!
