AMPS Module Reference¶

The BadRegexTopicException is raised when a topic query containing a regular expression is unable to be compiled by the AMPS regular expression compiler.

exception AMPS.BadSowKeyException¶

Bases: AMPS.CommandException

The BadSowKeyException is raised when command uses an invalid sow key

class AMPS.CMessageHandler¶

Bases: object

Wraps a C/C++ message handler function for use as a higher-performance AMPS message handler. To use, create a shared library or DLL with an exported function of type AMPS::MessageHandlerFunc.

For example:

extern "C" void my_message_handler(const AMPS::Message& message, void* userdata) { ... }

and then use the python ctypes module to load and supply it:

import ctypes
client = AMPS.Client(...)

my_dll = ctypes.CDLL("./mymessagehandler.so") # load my DLL
client.subscribe( AMPS.CMessageHandler( my_dll.my_message_handler, "user data"), "my_amps_topic" )

As messages arrive they are sent directly to my_message_handler, without passing through the python interpreter or taking the python global interpreter lock, resulting in potentially higher performance.

Note

No checking is performed to make sure your C/C++ function is of the appropriate signature. Supplying a function of a different signature than that shown, results in undefined behavior.

class AMPS.Client(name)¶

Bases: object

The base AMPS Client object used in AMPS applications. Each Client object manages a single connection to AMPS. Each AMPS connection has a name, a specific transport (such as tcp), a protocol (used for framing messages to AMPS), and a message type (such as FIX or JSON).

The Client object creates and manages a background thread, and sends and receives messages on that thread. The object provides both a synchronous interface for processing messages on the calling thread, and an asynchronous interface suitable for populating a queue to be processed by worker threads.

Each Client has a name. The AMPS server uses this name for duplicate message detection, so the name of each instance of the client application should be unique.

An example of a Python client publishing a JSON message is listed below:

client = AMPS.Client("test_client")

try:
  client.connect("tcp://127.0.0.1:9004/amps/json")
  client.logon()
  client.publish("topic_name",'{"a":1,"b":"2"}')
finally:
  client.close()

Constructor Arguments:

Parameters:	name – The unique name for this client. AMPS does not enforce specific restrictions on the character set used, however some protocols (for example, XML) may not allow specific characters. 60East recommends that the client name be meaningful, short, human readable, and avoid using control characters, newline characters, or square brackets.

class Bookmarks¶

Bases: object

This class provides special values for bookmark subscriptions:

EPOCH - Begin the subscription at the beginning of the journal.

MOST_RECENT - Begin the subscription at the first undiscarded message in the bookmark store, or at the end of the bookmark store if all messages have been discarded.

NOW - Begin the subscription at the time that AMPS processes the subscription.

For example, to begin a bookmark subscription at the beginning of the journal, provide AMPS.Client.Bookmarks.EPOCH as the bookmark in the call to AMPS.Client.bookmark_subscribe().

class Client.ConnectionStateListener¶

Bases: object

AMPS ConnectionStateListener type used to determine the new connection state.

Client.ack(message, options=None) OR ack(topic, bookmark, options=None)¶

Acknowledges a message queue message.

Parameters:	message – An `AMPS.Message` object to ack, OR topic – The topic of the message to ack. bookmark – The bookmark of the message to ack. options – An optional string to include in the ack such as ‘cancel’.

Client.add_connection_state_listener(listener_callable)¶

Sets a function to be called when this client connects or disconnects from AMPS.

Parameters: listener_callable (A python function or other callable that takes a single value.) – The function or callable to be called. This function will be passed True if a connection is established, False if a disconnect occurs. Notice that when a connection is established, the client has not yet logged in or completed any recovery steps. The application should not issue commands on the client until recovery is completed.

Client.add_message_handler(command_id, message_handler, acks, is_subscribe)¶

Add a message handler to the Client to handle messages and the requested acknowledgments sent in response to the given command_id.

Parameters:	command_id (str) – The command, query, or sub ID for messages and acks. message_handler (`MessageHandler`) – The message handler that will receive messages for the `command_id`. acks (str) – The acknowledgments requested to go to the `message_handler`. is_subscribe (int) – If the `message_handler` is for a subscribe command.

Client.allocateMessage()¶: A legacy method name for allocate_message().

Client.allocate_message()¶

Creates a new Message appropriate for this client.

This function should be called rarely, since it does allocate a handful of small objects.

Returns:	A new Message instance.

Client.bookmark_subscribe()¶

Signatures:

Client.bookmark_subscribe(on_message, topic, bookmark, filter=None, sub_id=None, options=None, timeout=0)
Client.bookmark_subscribe(topic, bookmark, filter=None, sub_id=None, options=None, timeout=0)

Places a bookmark subscription with AMPS. Starts replay at the most recent message reported by the bookmark parameter.

There are two ways to use this method:
1. When a message handler is provided, this method submits the bookmark_subscribe command on a background thread and calls the message handler with individual messages from the transaction log replay (if any) and then cuts over to live messages that match the subscription.
2. When no message handler is provided, this method returns a message stream that can be iterated on to process messages received from the transaction log replay (if any) and then cuts over to live messages that match the subscription.

Parameters:	on_message (`MessageHandler`) – The message handler to invoke with matching messages (specified only in the case where async processing is used). topic (str) – The topic to subscribe to. bookmark (str) – A bookmark identifier or one of the constants from `Bookmarks`. filter (str) – The filter. sub_id (str) – The subscription ID. You may optionally provide a subscription ID to ease recovery scenarios, instead of having the system automatically generate one for you. When used with the ‘replace’ option, this is the subscription to be replaced. With a bookmark store, this is the subscription ID used for recovery. So, when using a persistent bookmark store, provide an explicit subscription ID that is consistent across application restarts. options (str) – A comma separated string of options. Default is None. timeout (int) – The maximum time to wait for the client to receive and and consume a processed ack for this subscription (in milliseconds). `0` indicates to wait indefinitely.
Returns:	The command identifier assigned to this command if a message handler was provided. If no message handler was provided, returns a `MessageStream` containing the results of the command.
Raises:	`SubscriptionAlreadyExistsException`, `BadFilterException`, `BadRegexTopicException`, `TimedOutException`, `DisconnectedException`.

Client.close()¶: Disconnect from the AMPS server.

Client.connect(uri)¶

Connects to the AMPS instance through the provided URI.

The URI is a string with the format:

transport://userId:password@host:port/protocol

The components of the URI are as follows:

transport – The network transport used for the connection.

userId – If authentication is enabled, this is the unique user ID used to authenticate the connection.

password – If authentication is enabled, this is the password used to authenticate the connection.

host – The hostname or IP address of the host where AMPS is installed.

port – The port to connect to the AMPS instance.

protocol – The protocol used by this connection.

Note

Authentication is optional. If the system is using the default authentication with AMPS, which allows all users in without regard for their userId or password, then the userId:password@ string can be omitted from the connect URI.

Parameters:	uri (str) – The `URI` used to connect to AMPS.
Raises:	`ConnectionException`

Client.convert_version_to_number(version)¶

Converts the provided version string to a number using 2 digits for each dot. A value such as 4.0.0.0 will become 4000000 while 3.8.1.7 will return 3080107.

Parameters:	version (str) – The version string to convert.
Returns:	The numeric value for the version string.

Client.deltaPublish(topic, data)¶: This is a legacy method name for delta_publish().

Client.deltaSubscribe(on_message, topic, filter=None, options=0, timeout=0)¶: A legacy method name for delta_subscribe().

Deprecated since version 3.2.0.0: Use delta_subscribe() instead.

Client.delta_publish(topic, data, expiration=None)¶

Delta publish a message to an AMPS topic. This method does not wait for a response from the AMPS server. To detect failure, install a failed write handler. If the client was created with a persistent store on construction, then the client will store before forwarding the message to AMPS.

Parameters:	topic (str) – The topic to publish the data to. data (str) – The data to publish to the topic. expiration (int) – Number of seconds until published messages should expire.
Returns:	The sequence number assigned to this message by the publish store or 0 if there is no publish store and the server is assigning sequence numbers.
Raises:	`DisconnectedException`

Client.delta_subscribe()¶

Signatures:

Client.delta_subscribe(on_message, topic, filter=None, options=None, timeout=0, sub_id=None)
Client.delta_subscribe(topic, filter=None, options=None, timeout=0, sub_id=None)

Places a delta subscription with AMPS.

There are two ways to use this method:
1. When a message handler is provided, this method submits the delta_subscribe command on a background thread and calls the message handler with individual messages that match the subscription and that contain the updated fields.
2. When no message handler is provided, this method returns a message stream that can be iterated on to process messages received that match the subscription and that contain the updated fields.

Parameters:	on_message (str) – The message handler to invoke with matching messages (specified only in the case where async processing is used). topic (str) – The topic to subscribe to. filter (str) – The filter. options (str) – A comma separated list of values indicating additional processing options. timeout (int) – The maximum time to wait for the client to receive and consume the processed ack for this subscription (in milliseconds). `0` indicates to wait indefinitely. sub_id (str) – The subscription ID. You may optionally provide a subscription ID to ease recovery scenarios, instead of having the system automatically generate one for you. When used with the `replace` option, this is the subscription to be replaced.
Returns:	The command identifier assigned to this command if a message handler was provided. If no message handler was provided, returns a `MessageStream` containing the results of the command.
Raises:	`SubscriptionAlreadyExistsException`, `BadFilterException`, `BadRegexTopicException`, `TimedOutException`, `DisconnectedException`

Client.disconnect()¶: Disconnects and closes any active connections.

Client.execute(command)¶

Execute the provided command and process responses using a MessageStream. This method creates a Message based on the provided Command, sends the Message to AMPS, and returns a MessageStream that can be iterated on to process messages returned in response to the command.

Parameters:	command (AMPS.Command) – The command to execute.
Returns:	A `MessageStream` to iterate over.

Client.execute_async(command, on_message)¶

Execute the provided command and process responses on the client receive thread using the provided handler. This method creates a Message based on the provided Command, sends the Message to AMPS, and invokes the provided handler to process messages returned in response to the command. Rather than providing messages on the calling thread, the AMPS Python client runs the handler directly on the client receive thread.

When the provided handler is not None, this function blocks until AMPS acknowledges that the command has been processed. The results of the command after that acknowledgment are provided to the handler.

Parameters:	command (AMPS.Command) – The command to execute. on_message (A function or other callable object.) – A handler for messages returned by this command execution.
Returns:	The command ID assigned to the executed command.

Logs into AMPS with the parameters provided in the connect() method.

Parameters:	timeout (int) – The maximum time to wait for the command to receive a processed ack from AMPS for the logon command (in milliseconds). `0` indicates to wait indefinitely. authenticator (Authenticator) – An Authenticator object used to negotiate logon. options (string) – An options string to be passed to the server during logon, such as `ack_conflation=100ms`.
Returns:	The command identifier.
Raises:	`ConnectionException`

Client.name()¶

The name of the Client object.

Returns:	The `Client` name.

Client.publish(topic, data, expiration=None)¶

Publish a message to an AMPS topic. This method does not wait for a response from the AMPS server. To detect failure, install a failed write handler. If the client was created with a persistent store on construction, then the client will store before forwarding the message to AMPS. If a DisconnectException occurs, the message is still stored in the publish store.

Parameters:	topic (str) – The topic to publish to. data (str) – The data to publish. expiration (int) – Number of seconds until published message should expire.
Returns:	The sequence number assigned to this message by the publish store or 0 if there is no publish store and the server is assigning sequence numbers.
Raises:	`DisconnectedException`

Client.publish_flush(timeout=0, ack_type=Message.AckType.ProcessedEnum)¶

Ensures that pending AMPS messages are sent and have been processed by the AMPS server. When the client has a publish store configured, waits until all messages that are in the store at the time the command is called have been acknowledged by AMPS. Otherwise, issues a flush command and waits for the server to acknowledge that command.

This method blocks until messages have been processed or until the timeout expires, and is most useful when the application reaches a point at which it is acceptable to block to ensure that messages are delivered to the AMPS server. For example, an application might call publish_flush before exiting.

One thing to note is that if AMPS is unavailable (HA Client), publish_flush needs to wait for a connection to come back up, which may look like it’s hanging.

Parameters:	timeout (int) – The maximum time to wait for the messages to be acknowledged as persisted, or for the flush command to be acknowledged by AMPS (in milliseconds). `0` indicates to wait indefinitely. ack_type (int) – Whether the command should wait for a Processed or a Persisted ack when sending the `flush` command.

Client.remove_connection_state_listener(listener_callable)¶

Removes a listener function previously supplied to add_connection_state_listener().

Parameters:	listener_callable (A python function or other callable that takes a single value.) – The function or callable to be removed.

Client.remove_message_handler(command_id)¶

Remove a message handler from the Client.

Parameters:	command_id (str) – The command ID for the handler to remove.

Client.send(message, message_handler=None, timeout=None)¶

Send a Message to AMPS via the Transport used in the Client.

Parameters:	message (`Message`) – The message to send. message_handler (`MessageHandler`) – The message handler that will receive messages for this command. timeout (int) – The maximum time to wait for the client to receive and consume a processed ack for this command (in milliseconds). `0` indicates to wait indefinitely.
Returns:	The command identifier assigned to this command, or None if one is not assigned.

Sets the batch size used for batching message queue ack messages.

Parameters:	batch_size – The number of ack messages to batch before sending.

Client.set_ack_timeout(timeout)¶

Sets the time before queued ack messages are sent.

Parameters:	timeout – The maximum amount of time to wait after adding the first message to an acknowledgment batch before sending the batch, in milliseconds. 0 indicates that the client will wait until the batch is full. A value of 0 is not recommended unless the batch size is set to 1.

Client.set_auto_ack(enabled)¶

Enables or disables auto-acknowledgment of message queue messages.

Parameters:	enabled (Boolean) – True to enable auto-acknowledgment of message queue messages.

Client.set_bookmark_store(bookmark_store)¶

Sets a bookmark store on self.

Parameters:	bookmark_store – A `MMapBookmarkStore` or `MemoryBookmarkStore` instance, or a custom object that implements the required bookmark store methods.

Client.set_default_max_depth(depth)¶

Sets a default maximum depth for all new MessageStream objects that are returned from synchronous API calls such as execute().

Parameters:	depth (int) – The new depth to use. A depth of `0` means no max and is the default.

Client.set_disconnect_handler(client_disconnect_handler)¶

Client.set_exception_listener(exception_listener)¶

Sets the exception listener instance used for communicating absorbed exceptions.

Parameters:	exception_listener (`Exception`) – The exception listener instance to invoke for exceptions.

Client.set_failed_write_handler(failedWriteHandler)¶

Sets a failed write handler on self.

For example, you might implement a function like:

def PrintFailedWrites(message, reason):
    output = "Uh-oh, something went wrong writing to AMPS. (%s) " % reason
    if (message != None):
          output += "Topic: %s, Data snippet: %s..." % 
                  (message.get_topic(), message.get_data()[0:20])
    print output

Parameters: failedWriteHandler – A callable object to be invoked when AMPS indicates that a published message is not written. This could be because a duplicate message already exists in the transaction log, this client is not entitled to publish to the topic, the message failed to parse, or other similar reasons. Parameters to this callable are an AMPS message when the client has a message saved in the publish store, and a string that contains the reason the publish failed.

Client.set_global_command_type_message_handler(command, message_handler)¶

Add a message handler to the Client to handle messages from the server with the specified command.

Parameters:	command (str) – The command to send to the handler. Valid values are `ack` and `heartbeat`. message_handler (`MessageHandler`) – The message handler that will receive messages of the command specified.

Client.set_heartbeat(interval_seconds, timeout_seconds=None)¶

Used to enable heartbeating between the client and the AMPS Server. When a Client sends a heartbeat message to an AMPS instance, the AMPS instance will send back an acknowledgment message. From this point forward the Client and AMPS instance will each monitor that the other is still active. AMPS sends heartbeat messages to the client at the specified interval. If the Client does not receive a heartbeat message within the time interval specified in timeout_seconds, then the Client will assume that the connection has ended, close the connection and invoke the DisconnectHandler. Likewise, if the server sends a heartbeat and does not receive a response within the timeout, the server will consider the client to be nonresponsive and close the connection.

Heartbeats are processed in the client receive thread. If you use asynchronous message processing, your message handler must process messages within the timeout interval, or risk being disconnected by the server.

Parameters:	interval_seconds (int) – The time between heartbeat messages being sent to AMPS. timeout_seconds (int) – The maximum time to wait for AMPS to acknowledge the start of heartbeating (in seconds).

Client.set_last_chance_message_handler(message_handler)¶

Parameters:	message_handler (`MessageHandler`) – The message handler to invoke when no other incoming message handler matches.

Client.set_logon_correlation_data(logon_correlation_data)¶

Sets the data used to correlate the logon of this Client in the server.

Parameters:	logon_correlation_data – The base64 data string to send with the logon.

Client.set_name(name)¶

Sets the Client name.

Parameters:	name – The `Client` name.

Client.set_publish_store(publish_store)¶

Sets a publish store on self.

Parameters:	publish_store – a `PublishStore` or `MemoryPublishStore` instance.

Client.set_retry_on_disconnect(enabled)¶

Enables or disables automatic retry of a command to AMPS after a reconnect. This behavior is enabled by default.

Note

Clients using a publish store will have all publish messages sent, regardless of this setting. Also, Clients with a subscription manager, including all HAClients, will have all subscribe calls placed.

Parameters:	enabled (Boolean) – False to disable automatic retry of commands to AMPS.

Client.set_thread_created_callback(thread_created_callable)¶

Sets a function to be called when this client creates a thread used to receive data from the server.

Parameters:	thread_created_callable (A python function or other callable that takes no parameters.) – The function or callable to be called. This function is called by the newly created thread.

Client.set_transport_filter(transport_filter_callable)¶

Sets a function to be called when this client sends or receives data.

Parameters:	transport_filter_callable (A python function or other callable that takes two parameters: data and direction.) – The function or callable to be called. This function is passed a string (‘data’) containing the raw bytes sent or received. The ‘direction’ parameter is False if the data is being sent to the server, or True if data is received from the server.

Client.set_unhandled_message_handler(message_handler)¶: A legacy method name for set_last_chance_message_handler().

Deprecated since version 4.0.0.0: Use set_last_chance_message_handler() instead.

Client.sow()¶

Executes a SOW query.

There are two ways to use this method:
1. When a message handler is provided, this method submits the SOW query on a background thread and calls the message handler with individual messages, including the group_begin and group_end messages, that indicate the beginning and end of the SOW results.
2. When no message handler is provided, this method returns a message stream that can be iterated on to process messages received including the group_begin and group_end messages, that indicate the beginning and end of the SOW results.

For example:

client = AMPS.Client("test_client")

try:
    client.connect("tcp://127.0.0.1:9004/amps/fix")
    client.logon()
    for message in client.sow("MySowTopic"):
        print(message.get_data())
finally:
    client.close()

Parameters:	on_message (`MessageHandler`) – The message handler to invoke with matching messages. If this parameter is not present, AMPS creates a `MessageStream` and returns that message stream from the call to sow (specified only in the case where async processing is used). topic (str) – The topic to execute the SOW query against. filter (str) – The filter. batch_size (int) – The batching parameter to use for the results. timeout (int) – The maximum time to wait for the client to receive and consume a processed ack for this command (in milliseconds). `0` indicates to wait indefinitely. top_n (int) – The maximum number of records to return from the SOW. order_by (str) – To have the records ordered by the server. bookmark (int) – The bookmark for historical query of the SOW. options (str) – A comma separated list of values indicating additional processing options.

Client.sow_and_subscribe(on_message, topic, filter=None, batch_size=1, oof_enabled=False, timeout=0, top_n=None, order_by=None, bookmark=None, options=None)
Client.sow_and_subscribe(topic, filter=None, batch_size=1, oof_enabled=False, timeout=0, top_n=None, order_by=None, bookmark=None, options=None)

Executes a SOW query and places a subscription.

There are two ways to use this method:
1. When a message handler is provided, this method submits the sow_and_subscribe command on a background thread and calls the message handler with individual messages received from the SOW query, including the group_begin and group_end messages, that indicate the beginning and end of the SOW results and then with messages received that match the subscription.
2. When no message handler is provided, this method returns a message stream that can be iterated on to process messages received from the SOW query, including the group_begin and group_end messages, that indicate the beginning and end of the SOW results and then processes messages received that match the subscription.

Parameters:	on_message (`MessageHandler`) – The message handler to invoke with matching messages (specified only in the case where async processing is used). topic (str) – The topic to execute the SOW query against. filter (str) – The filter. batch_size (int) – The batching parameter to use for the results. oof_enabled (boolean) – Specifies whether or not Out-of-Focus processing is enabled. timeout (int) – The maximum time to wait for the client to receive and consume the processed ack for this command (in milliseconds). `0` indicates to wait indefinitely. top_n (int) – The maximum number of records to return from the SOW. order_by (str) – To have the records ordered by the server. bookmark (str) – The bookmark for historical query of the SOW. options (str) – A comma separated list of values indicating additional processing options.
Returns:	The command identifier assigned to this command if a message handler was provided. If no message handler was provided, returns a `MessageStream` containing the results of the command.
Raises:	`SubscriptionAlreadyExistsException`, `BadFilterException`, `BadRegexTopicException`, `TimedOutException`, `DisconnectedException`

Client.sow_delete()¶

Signatures:

Client.sow_delete(on_message, topic, filter=None, timeout=0)
Client.sow_delete(topic, filter=None, timeout=0)

Executes a SOW delete with a filter.

There are two ways to use this method:
1. When a message handler is provided, this method submits the sow_delete command on a background thread and calls the message handler with the results of the delete.
2. When no message handler is provided, this method returns an acknowledgment message with the result of the delete command.

For example, to delete all messages that match a filter:

...
ackMessage = client.sow_delete("sow_topic","/status = 'obsolete'")
print("%s: %s" % (ackMessage.get_ack_type(), ackMessage.get_status()))
...

Parameters:	on_message (`MessageHandler`) – The message handler to invoke with stats and completed acknowledgments (specified only in the case where async processing is used). topic (str) – The topic to execute the SOW delete against. filter (str) – The filter. To delete all records, set a filter that is always true (‘1=1’). timeout (int) – The maximum time to wait for the client to receive and consume the processed ack for this command (in milliseconds). `0` indicates to wait indefinitely.
Returns:	The command identifier assigned to this command if a message handler was provided. If no message handler was provided, returns an acknowledgment.
Raises:	`BadFilterException`, `BadRegexTopicException`, `TimedOutException`, `DisconnectedException`

Client.sow_delete_by_data()¶

Signatures:

Client.sow_delete_by_data(on_message, topic, data, timeout=0)
Client.sow_delete_by_data(topic, data, timeout=0)

Executes a SOW delete using the provided message data to determine the SOW key of the record to delete.

There are two ways to use this method:
1. When a message handler is provided, this method submits the sow_delete_by_data on a background thread, and calls the message handler with the results of the delete.
2. When no message handler is provided, this method provides an acknowledgment message with the result of the delete command.

For example, to efficiently delete a message that your program has received from AMPS:

...
topic= aMessage.get_topic()
data = aMessage.get_data()
ackMessage = client.sow_delete_by_data(topic,data)
print("%s: %s" % (ackMessage.get_ack_type(), ackMessage.get_status()))
...

In addition to deleting a message from AMPS, this method allows deletion of a message whose keys match one that is already stored, for example:

data = orders[orderId]
ackMessage = client.sow_delete_by_data('orders', data)
del orders[orderId]

Parameters:

on_message (MessageHandler) – The message handler to invoke with stats and completed acknowledgments (specified only in the case where async processing is used).
topic (str) – The topic to execute the SOW delete against.
data (str) – A message whose keys match the message to be deleted in the server’s SOW.
timeout (int) – The maximum time to wait for the client to receive and consume the processed ack for this command (in milliseconds). 0 indicates to wait indefinitely.

Returns:

The command identifier assigned to this command if a message handler was provided. If no message handler was provided, returns an acknowledgment.

Client.sow_delete_by_keys()¶

Signatures:

Client.sow_delete_by_keys(on_message, topic, keys, timeout=0)
Client.sow_delete_by_keys(topic, keys, timeout=0)

Executes a SOW delete using the provided SOW key(s) to determine the record(s) to delete.

There are two ways to use this method:
1. When a message handler is provided, this method submits the sow_delete_by_keys command on a background thread and calls the message handler with the results of the delete.
2. When no message handler is provided, this method provides an acknowledgment message with the result of the delete command.

Parameters:

on_message (MessageHandler) – The message handler to invoke with stats and completed acknowledgments (specified only in the case where async processing is used).
topic (str) – The topic to execute the SOW delete against.
keys (str) – A comma separated list of SOW keys to be deleted.
timeout (int) – The maximum time to wait for the client to receive and consume the processed ack for this command (in millseconds). 0 indicates to wait indefinitely.

Returns:

The command identifier assigned to this command if a message handler was provided. If no message handler was provided, returns an acknowledgment.

There are two ways to use this method:
1. When a message handler is provided, this method submits the subscribe command on a background thread and calls the message handler with individual messages that match the subscription.
2. When no message handler is provided, this method returns a message stream that can be iterated on to process messages received that match the subscription.

Parameters:	on_message (str) – The message handler to invoke with matching messages (specified only in the case where async processing is used). topic (str) – The topic to subscribe to. filter (str) – The filter. options (str) – A comma separated list of values indicating additional processing options. timeout (int) – The maximum time to wait for the client to receive and consume the processed ack for this command (in milliseconds). `0` indicates to wait indefinitely. sub_id (str) – The subscription ID. You may optionally provide a subscription ID to ease recovery scenarios, instead of having the system automatically generate one for you. When used with the ‘replace’ option, this is the subscription to be replaced.
Returns:	The command identifier assigned to this command if a message handler was provided. If no message handler was provided, returns a `MessageStream` containing the results of the command.
Raises:	`SubscriptionAlreadyExistsException`, `BadFilterException`, `BadRegexTopicException`, `TimedOutException`, `DisconnectedException`

exception AMPS.ClientNameInUse¶

Bases: AMPS.ConnectionException

deprecated - use NameInUseException

class AMPS.Command(command_name)¶

Bases: object

AMPS.Command represents a single message (or command) sent to the AMPS server. The class provides methods for headers that are used for commands to the server. Applications typically use this class to create outgoing requests to AMPS. The responses to requests, whether acknowledgments or messages that contain data, are returned as instances of the AMPS.Message class.

The AMPS.Client provides named convenience methods that support a subset of the options available via a Command. For most applications, the recommended approach is to use the publish() methods for sending data to AMPS (unless the application needs to set options not available through that method) and use the Command class for queries, subscriptions, and to remove data.

To use the Command class to run a command on the server, you create the Command, set options as described in the Command Cookbook in the Python Developer Guide or the AMPS Command Reference, and then use AMPS.Client.execute_async() to process messages asynchronously, or AMPS.Client.execute() to process messages synchronously.

Constructor Arguments:

Parameters:	command_name – The name of the command to send to the server. For example, `sow`, `sow_and_subscribe` or `publish`.

Parameters:	value – The new value to set for the header.
Returns:	This command.

set_sow_keys(value)¶

The SOW keys for a command are a comma-separated list of the keys that AMPS assigns to SOW messages. The SOW key for a message is available through the Message.get_sow_key() method on a message.

For a sow_delete command, this list indicates the set of messages to be deleted.

For a query or subscription, this list indicates the set of messages to include in the query or subscription.

Not all headers are processed by AMPS for all commands. See the AMPS Command Reference for which headers are used by AMPS for a specific command.

Sets the amount of time that the Client will wait for a processed acknowledgment from the server to be received and consumed before abandoning the request; this option is only used by the Client and is not sent to the server. The acknowledgment is processed on the client receive thread. This option is expressed in milliseconds, where a value of 0 means to wait indefinitely.

Parameters:	value – The value to set.
Returns:	This command.

set_top_n(value)¶

Sets the top N header of this command. Although AMPS accepts a top N value in the header of a command, most AMPS applications pass the value in the top_n option for clarity.

Not all headers are processed by AMPS for all commands. See the AMPS Command Reference for which headers are used by AMPS for a specific command.

Parameters:	value – The new value to set for the header.
Returns:	This command.

set_topic(value)¶

Sets the value of the topic header, which specifies the topic that the command applies to. For a publish command, this field is interpreted as the literal topic to publish to. For commands such as sow or subscribe, the topic is interpreted as a literal topic unless there are regular expression characters present in the topic name. For those commands, if regular expression characters are present, the command will be interpreted as applying to all topics with names that match the regular expression.

Not all headers are processed by AMPS for all commands. See the AMPS Command Reference for which headers are used by AMPS for a specific command.

Bases: object

ExponentialDelayStrategy is an implementation that exponentially backs off when reconnecting to the same server, with a maximum time to retry before it gives up entirely.

By default, an ExponentialDelayStrategy has an initial delay of 200 ms, a maximum delay of 20 seconds, a backoff exponent of 2.0, and has no limit to the amount of time to retry the connection.

Constructor Arguments:

Parameters:

initial_delay – The time (in milliseconds) to wait before reconnecting to a server for the first time after a failed connection.
maximum_delay – The maximum time to wait for any reconnect attempt (milliseconds). Exponential backoff will not exceed this maximum.
backoff_exponent – The exponent to use for calculating the next delay time. For example, if the initial time is 200ms and the exponent is 2.0, the next delay will be 400ms, then 800ms, etc.
maximum_retry_time – The maximum time (milliseconds) to allow reconnect attempts to continue without a successful connection, before ‘giving up’ and abandoning the connection attempt.
jitter – The amount of ‘jitter’ to apply when calculating a delay time, measured in multiples of the initial delay. Jitter is used to reduce the number of simultaneous reconnects that may be issued from multiple clients.

  client.publish("topic_name",'{"a":1,"b":"2"}')
finally:
  client.close()

Constructor Arguments:

Parameters:

name – The unique name for this client. AMPS does not enforce specific restrictions on the character set used, however some protocols (for example, XML) may not allow specific characters. 60East recommends that the client name be meaningful, short, human readable, and avoid using control characters, newline characters, or square brackets.
publish_store – An optional file name for the client’s local publish store. If not supplied, a memory-backed publish store is used.
bookmark_store – An optional file name for the client’s local bookmark store. If not supplied, a memory-backed bookmark store is used.
no_store – Pass no_store=True to indicate that a memory bookmark and/or publish store should not be used.

connect()¶: Connects and logs on using the ServerChooser you’ve supplied via set_server_chooser(). Will continue attempting to connect and logon to each URI returned by the ServerChooser until the connection succeeds or the ServerChooser returns an empty URI.

Bases: object

A bookmark store that maintains information about the recovery point for bookmark subscriptions in memory.

When the bookmark store is set on a Client or HAClient, the AMPS client library manages adding subscriptions to the store and tracking bookmarks as they arrive. The AMPS HAClient uses the bookmark store on failover to recover bookmark subscriptions at the appropriate point.

For a bookmark subscription, an application must discard() messages when they have been processed. The other methods on this class are not typically called by the application during normal use.

A publish store that keeps messages in memory. This class is the default publish store for a python HAClient. The HAClient manages storing messages in the publish store, replaying messages to the server after failover, and removing messages from the store. With this publish store, an application typically checks to be sure that the publish store is empty (that is, all messages have been persisted in the AMPS server) before exiting.

Parameters:	error_on_publish_gap (Boolean) – If true, PublishStoreGapException can be thrown by the client publish store if the client logs onto a server that appears to be missing messages no longer held in the store.

set_resize_handler()¶: Sets the object to call when the store needs to resize.

class AMPS.Message¶

Bases: object

AMPS.Message represents a single message sent to or received from the AMPS server. The class provides methods for every header that can be present, whether or not that header will be populated or used in a particular context.

Applications typically use an AMPS.Command to create outgoing requests to AMPS, and receive instances of AMPS.Message in response.

The AMPS Command Reference provides details on which headers are used by AMPS and which will be populated on messages received from AMPS, depending on the command the AMPS.Message responds to, the optionsand headers set on that command, and the type of the response message.

AMPS.Message has been designed to minimize unnecessary memory allocation. Copying a Message does not copy the underlying content of the message. When the AMPS client provides a Message to a message handler function, the data in that Message is a region in the buffer that the AMPS client uses to read from the socket. If your application will use the Message after the message handler returns, you should use the __deepcopy__() function to copy the underlying data as well as the Message, since in this case the AMPS client will reuse the underlying buffer once the MessageHandler returns. See the AMPS Python Developer Guide section on asynchronous message processing for more details.

If your application has the need to bypass most of the AMPS.Client infrastructure for some reason when sending commands to AMPS, the AMPS.Message / AMPS.Client.send() interface provides the flexibility to do so. In return, your application must provide functionality that is normally provided automatically by the AMPS.Client (for example, tracking subscriptions for failover, recording the message in the publish store and managing success or failure of the publish, and so on). Although this functionality is available for flexibility, it is rarely needed in practice. 60East recommends using AMPS.Command objects with AMPS.Client.execute() and AMPS.Client.execute_async() for sending commands to AMPS.

class Options¶

Bases: object

AMPS.Message.Options is a class that provides convenience methods for constructing an options string for use in a command to AMPS. This class is intended to help in formatting the options. It does not validate the values provided, that the options apply to any particular command,or that the options have a particular result. The AMPS Python client (and the AMPS server itself) accept options as a string, so there is no requirement to use this class to format options.

cmd = AMPS.Command("sow_and_subscribe").set_topic("my_cool_topic") \ 
          .set_options(str(AMPS.Message.Options().set_OOF().set_conflation("5s") ))
