What is this?
-------------
EPC is an RPC stack for Emacs Lisp and Python-EPC is its server side
and client side implementation in Python. Using Python-EPC, you can
easily call Emacs Lisp functions from Python and Python functions from
Emacs. For example, you can use Python GUI module to build widgets
for Emacs (see `examples/gtk/server.py`_ for example).
Python-EPC is tested against Python 2.6, 2.7 and 3.2.
Install
-------
To install Python-EPC and its dependency sexpdata_, run the following
command.::
pip install epc
.. _sexpdata: https://github.com/tkf/sexpdata
Usage
-----
Save the following code as ``my-server.py``.
(You can find functionally the same code in `examples/echo/server.py`_)::
from epc.server import EPCServer
server = EPCServer(('localhost', 0))
@server.register_function
def echo(*a):
return a
server.print_port()
server.serve_forever()
And then run the following code from Emacs.
This is a stripped version of `examples/echo/client.el`_ included in
Python-EPC repository_.::
(require 'epc)
(defvar my-epc (epc:start-epc "python" '("my-server.py")))
(deferred:$
(epc:call-deferred my-epc 'echo '(10))
(deferred:nextc it
(lambda (x) (message "Return : %S" x))))
(message "Return : %S" (epc:call-sync my-epc 'echo '(10 40)))
.. _examples/echo/server.py:
https://github.com/tkf/python-epc/blob/master/examples/echo/server.py
.. _examples/echo/client.el:
https://github.com/tkf/python-epc/blob/master/examples/echo/client.el
If you have carton_ installed, you can run the above sample by
simply typing the following commands::
make elpa # install EPC in a separated environment
make run-sample # run examples/echo/client.el
.. _carton: https://github.com/rejeep/carton
For example of bidirectional communication and integration with GTK,
see `examples/gtk/server.py`_. You can run this example by::
make elpa
make run-gtk-sample # run examples/gtk/client.el
.. _examples/gtk/server.py:
https://github.com/tkf/python-epc/blob/master/examples/gtk/server.py
