| = INSTALLATION = |
| |
| Extract the release archive into a directory of your choice and set |
| your PYTHONPATH accordingly: |
| |
| tar -xzf qpid-python-<version>.tar.gz -C <install-prefix> |
| export PYTHONPATH=<install-prefix>/qpid-<version>/python |
| |
| = GETTING STARTED = |
| |
| The python client includes a simple hello-world example that publishes |
| and consumes a message: |
| |
| cp <install-prefix>/qpid-<version>/python/hello-world . |
| ./hello-world |
| |
| = EXAMPLES = |
| |
| More comprehensive examples can be found here: |
| |
| cd <install-prefix>/qpid-<version>/python/examples |
| |
| = RUNNING THE TESTS = |
| |
| The "tests" directory contains a collection of unit tests for the |
| python client. The "tests_0-10", "tests_0-9", and "tests_0-8" |
| directories contain protocol level conformance tests for AMQP brokers |
| of the specified version. |
| |
| The qpid-python-test script may be used to run these tests. It will by |
| default run the python unit tests and the 0-10 conformance tests: |
| |
| 1. Run a broker on the default port |
| |
| 2. ./qpid-python-test |
| |
| If you wish to run the 0-8 or 0-9 conformence tests, they may be |
| selected as follows: |
| |
| 1. Run a broker on the default port |
| |
| 2. ./qpid-python-test tests_0-8.* |
| |
| -- or -- |
| |
| ./qpid-python-test tests_0-9.* |
| |
| See the qpid-python-test usage for for additional options: |
| |
| ./qpid-python-test -h |
