add_async_request

View source

add_async_request(
    method,
    relative_url,
    headers,
    body,
    source_ip,
    module_name=None,
    version=None,
    instance_id=None
)

Dispatch an HTTP request asynchronously.

Args
method	A str containing the HTTP method of the request.
relative_url	A str containing path and query string of the request.
headers	A list of (key, value) tuples where key and value are both str.
body	A str containing the request body.
source_ip	The source ip address for the request.
module_name	An optional str containing the module name to service this request. If unset, the request will be dispatched to the default module.
version	An optional str containing the version to service this request. If unset, the request will be dispatched to the default version.
instance_id	An optional str containing the instance_id of the instance to service this request. If unset, the request will be dispatched to according to the load-balancing for the module and version.

add_event

View source

add_event(
    runnable, eta, service=None, event_id=None
)

Add a callable to be run at the specified time.

Args
runnable	A callable object to call at the specified time.
eta	An int containing the time to run the event, in seconds since the epoch.
service	A str containing the name of the service that owns this event. This should be set if event_id is set.
event_id	A str containing the id of the event. If set, this can be passed to update_event to change the time at which the event should run.
