Python STTP (IEEE 2664) Implementation

Streaming Telemetry Transport Protocol

The Streaming Telemetry Transport Protocol (STTP) is optimized for the demands of transporting high volume streaming data. The protocol allows for the transmission of any information that can be represented longitudinally, e.g., time-series data.

STTP is currently undergoing IEEE standardization (P2664), see: https://standards.ieee.org/ieee/2664/7397/

Example Usage

from sttp.subscriber import Subscriber
from time import time
from threading import Thread

def main():
    subscriber = Subscriber()

    try:
        # Start new data read at each connection
        subscriber.set_connectionestablished_receiver(
            lambda: Thread(target=read_data, args=(subscriber,)).start())

        subscriber.subscribe("FILTER TOP 20 ActiveMeasurements WHERE True")
        subscriber.connect("localhost:7175")

        # Exit when enter key is pressed
        input()
    finally:
        subscriber.dispose()


def read_data(subscriber: Subscriber):
    subscriber.default_connectionestablished_receiver()
    reader = subscriber.read_measurements()
    lastmessage = 0.0

    while subscriber.connected:
        measurement, success = reader.next_measurement()

        if not success:
            break

        if time() - lastmessage < 5.0:
            continue
        elif lastmessage == 0.0:
            subscriber.statusmessage("Receiving measurements...")
            lastmessage = time()
            continue

        message = [
            f"{subscriber.total_measurementsreceived:,}",
            " measurements received so far. Current measurement:\n    ",
            str(measurement)
        ]

        subscriber.statusmessage("".join(message))
        lastmessage = time()
