asgilifespan 2.1.0
asgi-lifespan
Programmatically send startup/shutdown lifespan events into ASGI applications. When used in combination with an ASGI-capable HTTP client such as HTTPX, this allows mocking or testing ASGI applications without having to spin up an ASGI server.
Features
Send lifespan events to an ASGI app using LifespanManager.
Support for asyncio and trio.
Fully type-annotated.
100% test coverage.
Installation
pip install 'asgi-lifespan==2.*'
Usage
asgi-lifespan provides a LifespanManager to programmatically send ASGI lifespan events into an ASGI app. This can be used to programmatically startup/shutdown an ASGI app without having to spin up an ASGI server.
LifespanManager can run on either asyncio or trio, and will auto-detect the async library in use.
Basic usage
# example.py
from contextlib import asynccontextmanager
from asgi_lifespan import LifespanManager
from starlette.applications import Starlette
# Example lifespan-capable ASGI app. Any ASGI app that supports
# the lifespan protocol will do, e.g. FastAPI, Quart, Responder, ...
@asynccontextmanager
async def lifespan(app):
print("Starting up!")
yield
print("Shutting down!")
app = Starlette(lifespan=lifespan)
async def main():
async with LifespanManager(app) as manager:
print("We're in!")
# On asyncio:
import asyncio; asyncio.run(main())
# On trio:
# import trio; trio.run(main)
Output:
$ python example.py
Starting up!
We're in!
Shutting down!
Sending lifespan events for testing
The example below demonstrates how to use asgi-lifespan in conjunction with HTTPX and pytest in order to send test requests into an ASGI app.
Install dependencies:
pip install asgi-lifespan httpx starlette pytest pytest-asyncio
Test script:
# test_app.py
from contextlib import asynccontextmanager
import httpx
import pytest
import pytest_asyncio
from asgi_lifespan import LifespanManager
from starlette.applications import Starlette
from starlette.responses import PlainTextResponse
from starlette.routing import Route
@pytest_asyncio.fixture
async def app():
@asynccontextmanager
async def lifespan(app):
print("Starting up")
yield
print("Shutting down")
async def home(request):
return PlainTextResponse("Hello, world!")
app = Starlette(
routes=[Route("/", home)],
lifespan=lifespan,
)
async with LifespanManager(app) as manager:
print("We're in!")
yield manager.app
@pytest_asyncio.fixture
async def client(app):
async with httpx.AsyncClient(app=app, base_url="http://app.io") as client:
print("Client is ready")
yield client
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_home(client):
print("Testing")
response = await client.get("/")
assert response.status_code == 200
assert response.text == "Hello, world!"
print("OK")
Run the test suite:
$ pytest -s test_app.py
======================= test session starts =======================
test_app.py Starting up
We're in!
Client is ready
Testing
OK
.Shutting down
======================= 1 passed in 0.88s =======================
Accessing state
LifespanManager provisions a lifespan state which persists data from the lifespan cycle for use in request/response handling.
For your app to be aware of it, be sure to use manager.app instead of the app itself when inside the context manager.
For example if using HTTPX as an async test client:
async with LifespanManager(app) as manager:
async with httpx.AsyncClient(app=manager.app) as client:
...
API Reference
LifespanManager
def __init__(
self,
app: Callable,
startup_timeout: Optional[float] = 5,
shutdown_timeout: Optional[float] = 5,
)
An asynchronous context manager that starts up an ASGI app on enter and shuts it down on exit.
More precisely:
On enter, start a lifespan request to app in the background, then send the lifespan.startup event and wait for the application to send lifespan.startup.complete.
On exit, send the lifespan.shutdown event and wait for the application to send lifespan.shutdown.complete.
If an exception occurs during startup, shutdown, or in the body of the async with block, it bubbles up and no shutdown is performed.
Example
async with LifespanManager(app) as manager:
# 'app' was started up.
...
# 'app' was shut down.
Parameters
app (Callable): an ASGI application.
startup_timeout (Optional[float], defaults to 5): maximum number of seconds to wait for the application to startup. Use None for no timeout.
shutdown_timeout (Optional[float], defaults to 5): maximum number of seconds to wait for the application to shutdown. Use None for no timeout.
Yields
manager (LifespanManager): the LifespanManager itself. In case you use lifespan state, use async with LifespanManager(app) as manager: ... then access manager.app to get a reference to the state-aware app.
Raises
LifespanNotSupported: if the application does not seem to support the lifespan protocol. Based on the rationale that if the app supported the lifespan protocol then it would successfully receive the lifespan.startup ASGI event, unsupported lifespan protocol is detected in two situations:
The application called send() before calling receive() for the first time.
The application raised an exception during startup before making its first call to receive(). For example, this may be because the application failed on a statement such as assert scope["type"] == "http".
TimeoutError: if startup or shutdown timed out.
Exception: any exception raised by the application (during startup, shutdown, or within the async with body) that does not indicate it does not support the lifespan protocol.
