RPyC v3.3.0 Release Notes

    • RPyC integrates with plumbum <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/plumbum>_; plumbum is required for some features, like rpyc_classic.py and zero deploy, but the core of the library doesn't require it. It is, of course, advised to have it installed.

    • SshContext, SshTunnel classes killed in favor of plumbum's SSH tunneling. The interface doesn't change much, except that ssh_connect now accept a plumbum.SshMachine instance instead of SshContext.

    • 🚀 Zero deploy: deploy RPyC to a remote machine over an SSH connection and form an SSH tunnel connected to it, in just one line of code. All you need is SSH access and a Python interpreter installed on the remote machine.

    • ⬇️ Dropping Python 2.4 support. RPyC now requires Python 2.5 - 3.3.

    • rpycd - a well-behaved daemon for rpyc_classic.py, based on python-daemon <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-daemon/>_

    • The OneShotServer is now exposed by rpyc_classic -m oneshot

    • scripts directory renamed bin

    • ✅ Introducing Splitbrain Python - running code on remote machines transparently. Although tested, it is still considered experimental.

    • ⏱ Removing the BgServerThread and all polling/timeout hacks in favor of a "global background reactor thread" that handles all incoming transport from all connections. This should solve all threading issues once and for all.

    • ➕ Added MockClassicConnection - a mock RPyC "connection" that allows you to write code that runs either locally or remotely without modification

    • ➕ Added teleport_function
