Asynchronous Server App Boilerplate Video Tutorial
If you ever wondered about how to enter the fast asynchronous world, where web servers and other responsive applications utilize hardware components to their maximum and sleep when no work is necessary, you are in the right place.
Asynchronous Server App Boilerplate (ASAB) was built exactly for the purpose of letting newcomers quickly enter the asynchronous programming with just a few lines of code. ASAB can then be used for building complex applications or foundations for other frameworks and base components.
Introduction
Presentation of the ASAB architecture together with basics of asynchronous programming in Python with asyncio library.
Hello world
How to build a few line long "Hello world" application.
Web server example
Web server application made easy with ASAB using aiohttp.
Publish-subscribe (PubSub) example
Publish-subscribe mechanism of events in the ASAB application.
Logging & Configuration
How to use hierarchy configuration and simple logging.
Modules & Services
ASAB is based on modules, services and their handlers to ensure loose coupling and independent microservices.
Other examples
ASAB provides many examples, which are part of the source code on GitHub: https://github.com/TeskaLabs/asab/
