BEEPy - a Python BEEP library / News: Recent posts

A bugfix release, BEEPy 0.6.2 fixes issues with the unit tests. They now use twisted trial and are vastly improved from what they once were.

Enjoy!

BEEPy is now available under the MIT license.

It is with great joy and relief that I announce the release of version 0.5 of BEEPy. About bloody time! I hear you say. Hopefully it's been worth the wait.

The release is available in three formats for the first time, now that I've bothered to find out how distutils does it:
.tar.gz for the standard unix crowd
.tar.bz2 for those who want something a little smaller
.zip for those trapped somewhere without tar, gzip or gnutar.... read more

I am proud to announce the release of BEEPy version 0.4. This release brings significant changes and enhancements to BEEPy, including:
- Implementation as twisted framework classes
- TLS support for encrypted transport layer security
- Significant performance and stability enhancements
- Loads of examples to help make learning BEEPy easier

If you haven't tried BEEPy yet, now is definitely the time to give it a go!

The latest version of the BEEPy library is now available! Version 0.3 brings with it a host of improvements including the following major features:

- Python distutils for easy installation.
- SASL/OTP support. Support for one time passwords via the SASL/OTP mechanism is now available.
- Even more testing and example code.

Work is now progressing on adding TLS support to the library to enable secure, authenticated and encrypted sessions as well as improving code stability and ease-of-use.

Huzzah! BEEPy has now achieved a base level of functionality and can be used to build real actual BEEP applications! Though still very much under development, BEEPy is well on the way to providing all the goodness that is BEEP to Python programmers everywhere. In this release:
- Working channel setup/teardown.
- Example code and explanatory HOWTO on using BEEPy.
- SASL/ANONYMOUS authentication support.
and heaps more good stuff.

BEEPy - a Python BEEP Library, has its first release available: 0.1a. As you might guess from the version number, this is a very early alpha that isn't really all that functional but exists for people to play with, find bugs, offer suggestions, etc. Expect lots to change from this version to the next as things stabilise.

Enjoy!

BEEPy is a Python library implementation of the Blocks Extensible Exchange Protocol (BEEP).
