socktools.udp_sock - UDP implementation

This module contains the class you probably want most of the time: it implements P2P UDP.

class socktools.udp_sock.UDPSock(bind=None, connect=None, handlers={}, timeout=10, tick_interval=0.25, sock=None, meta_sock=None, logger=None, no_async=False)

Bases: socktools.base_sock.BaseSock

Simple UDP implementation - both client and server

Read the code to see just HOW trivially simple this is, application logic belongs elsewhere

create_socket(no_reuse=False)

Creates the physical socket object

Note

The socket sets SO_REUSEADDR by default, this saves a LOT of time in testing your code, but if you don’t want this behaviour turn it off in child_setup()

Returns:the physical socket object for inbound connections Return type:socket.socket
