Pyro module management.

Use this module to manage a Pyro name server.

Classes

class servermgr.pyro_ns.Manager(host, port, data_dir, name='pyro_ns', process_name='Pyro NameServer', **kwargs)

Pyro manager object.

Parameters:

• host – the interface to listen on.

health()

Check Pyro health.

Raises :base.WorkerError if we cannot locate the Pyro name server.

process

Return the process object.

ready_wait(timeout=10.0, verbose=False)

Wait until the worker subprocess is responding to requests.

Parameters:

• timeout (float, seconds) – Give the server this many seconds to start. If the timeout expires before the server has started, kill the server and raise WorkerError.

Raises :

WorkerError if the worker is not ready within the time limit.

Raises :

WorkerError if there is no subprocess.

start(wait=True, timeout=10.0)

Launch the Pyro name server in its own process.

Parameters:

• wait – If true, call self.ready_wait() after starting the subprocess.
• timeout (float, number of seconds) – When calling ready_wait(), use this timeout value.

Raises :

base.WorkerError if the worker hasn’t started before timeout elapses.

stop(wait=True)

Terminate the worker subprocess.

Parameters:

• wait (boolean) – If True, wait for the worker to exit.

wait()

Wait for the worker process to exit.

servermgr.pyro_ns.main()

You can use this script to start a copy of the pyro nameserver; however, you could just as easily run the pyro-ns script installed by pyro.

Usage: pyro.py [options]

Options:

-h, --help	show this help message and exit
-H HOST, --host=HOST
	Pyro nameserver hostname
-p PORT, --port=PORT
	Pyro nameserver port
-d DATADIR, --datadir=DATADIR
	Pyro data directory
