Hands-On Reactive Programming with Python

Introduction to Cyclotron

So far, the code written in this book was done completely from scratch. This is great to learn how to write code, but there is some boilerplate that always has to be written:

• Creating and running the AsyncIO event loop
• Managing observable cycles with subjects

Cyclotron is a set of Python packages that aims at implementing this boilerplate instead of having to rewrite it again and again. It also defines a common prototype for ReactiveX components and drivers so that they can be shared between projects. Cyclotron is composed of several packages:

• cyclotron: This is a very small package that manages the connection of observables, with the support of observable cycles.
• cyclotron-std: This package contains drivers and ...
