socketify.py

socketify.py brings:

• WebSocket with pub/sub support
• Fast and realiable Http/Https
• Support for Windows, Linux and macOS Silicon & x64
• Support for PyPy3 and CPython

This project aims to bring high performance PyPy3 web development and will bring:

• fetch like API powered by libuv
• async file IO powered by libuv
• full asyncio integration with libuv

We created and adapt the full C API from uNetworking/uWebSockets and integrate libuv powered fetch and file IO, this same C API is used by Bun

Benchmark

HTTP requests per second (Linux x64)

framework	req/s	runtime
socketify.py	124,943	PyPy3
socketify.py	70,877	Python3
uvicorn	30,173	Python3
uvicorn	17,580	PyPy3

Runtime versions: PyPy3 7.3.9 and Python 3.10.7
Framework versions: gunicorn 20.1.0 + uvicorn 0.19.0, socketify alpha
Tested with ./http_load_test 40 127.0.0.1 8000 from uSockets Source code in bench

Today socketify have about 30% performance hit due to workarounds between asyncio + libuv, so we will got even faster! See more info in this issue, in PyPy3 we can get about 186,760 req/s and 77,774 req/s in Python3 without these workarounds and almost double of the scores with PyPy3 in TechEmPower plaintext, Python3 performance will improve when we migrate to HPy. In TechEmPower benchmarks we are faster than japronto in plaintext (about 1,300k req/s using PyPy3 without workaround and about 770k req/s with the current state vs 582k from japronto you can follow details in this discussion

Examples

Hello world app

from socketify import App

app = App()
app.get("/", lambda res, req: res.end("Hello World socketify from Python!"))
app.listen(3000, lambda config: print("Listening on port http://localhost:%d now\n" % config.port))
app.run()

SSL version sample

from socketify import App, AppOptions

app = App(AppOptions(key_file_name="./misc/key.pem", cert_file_name="./misc/cert.pem", passphrase="1234"))
app.get("/", lambda res, req: res.end("Hello World socketify from Python!"))
app.listen(3000, lambda config: print("Listening on port http://localhost:%d now\n" % config.port))
app.run()
