Preview(!!) of something I'm working on: evel, an easy to use Python pub/sub event library.
In my FastAPI applications (and other asyncio-based apps), I sometimes need a way for one part of the code to send data or events to other parts, while still keeping them decoupled and supporting multiple publishers and subscribers to the same topic.
evel attempts to make this as easy as
with bus.subscribe("a", "b") as events:
async for topic, msg in events:
…
It's also the first project I've set up with Cookiecutter.
It took me the better part of the day to set up my template files for Python projects (because of course I'm not copying someone else's templates, that would be _cheating_), but it's going to allow me to start new projects much faster.
And another preview of an upcoming little Python library:
Multidog is a SIGALRM-based watchdog that can handle multiple timeouts. It works by keeping track of one or more timeouts configured by you, and set up an alarm signal that will cause the OS to terminate your process when the timeout occurs.
Its main purpose is to kill your application when something _doesn't_ happen for a certain time, and then have systemd or whatever restart your app.
Preview releases of evel and Multidog are now on PyPI, simplifying installation:
https://pypi.org/project/evel/

And I've moved from Cookiecutter to Copier after just two days, simply because Cookiecutter lacks one essential feature: The ability to re-apply the template to an existing project.

@scy Ich war bisher einfach nur zu faul was besseres zu suchen wenn das alte einigermaßen tut was es soll. Wenn mir jemand allerdings ein Tool präsentiert, dass den größten Schmerz lindert, dann schreckt mich die Arbeit nicht.
(Update: doofe Tippfehler)
@scy Jetzt habe ich einen Ohrwurm 😁
