Provides a subclass of socket.socket that enables a TCP/IP socket that can send and recieve Numpy arrays with the same interface as a regular Python socket.
The subclass of socket.socket provides three key method overrides. All other socket methods are untouched.
sendall- takes a Numpy array as an argument to send an Arrayrecv- outputs a Numpy array (len() == 0if no data received)
pip install numpysocket
There are two separate examples showing how to create a client and sever using a NumpySocket
./examples/Simple shows a server which closes after the client disconnects.
In terminal 1, run:
python simple_server.py
In terminal 2, run:
python simple_client.py
./examples/OpenCV shows an actual usecase for this library (sending video frames). This example requires installing additional requirements (./examples/openCV/requirements.txt).
This example also shows how to create a persistent server which allows for new clients to connect after old clients disconnects.
In terminal 1, run:
python cv_server.py
In terminal 2, run:
python cv_client.py
Kill terminal 2 and re-run the command and the server will allow for the new connection.
