## Introduction

**Autobahn|Python** is a subproject of
[Autobahn](https://crossbar.io/autobahn) and provides open-source
implementations of

- [The WebSocket Protocol](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6455)
- [The Web Application Messaging Protocol (WAMP)](https://wamp-proto.org/)

for Python 3.7+ and running on
[Twisted](https://twistedmatrix.com/) and
[asyncio](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio.html).

You can use **Autobahn|Python** to create clients and servers in
Python speaking just plain WebSocket or WAMP.

**WebSocket** allows
[bidirectional real-time messaging on the Web](https://crossbario.com/blog/post/websocket-why-what-can-i-use-it/)
and beyond, while [WAMP](https://wamp-proto.org/) adds real-time
application communication on top of WebSocket.

**WAMP** provides asynchronous **Remote Procedure Calls** and
**Publish & Subscribe** for applications in _one_ protocol
running over [WebSocket](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6455).
WAMP is a _routed_ protocol, so you need a **WAMP Router** to
connect your **Autobahn|Python** based clients. We provide
[Crossbar.io](https://crossbar.io), but there are
[other options](https://wamp-proto.org/implementations.html#routers)
as well.

Note

**Autobahn|Python** up to version v19.11.2 supported Python 2 and
3.4+, and up to version v20.7.1 supported Python 3.5+, and up to
version v21.2.1 supported Python 3.6+.

## Show me some code

To give you a first impression, here are two examples. We have
lot more
[in the repo](https://github.com/crossbario/autobahn-python/tree/master/examples).

### WebSocket Echo Server

Here is a simple WebSocket Echo Server that will echo back any
WebSocket message received:

    from autobahn.twisted.websocket import WebSocketServerProtocol
    # or: from autobahn.asyncio.websocket import WebSocketServerProtocol

    class MyServerProtocol(WebSocketServerProtocol):

        def onConnect(self, request):
            print("Client connecting: {}".format(request.peer))

        def onOpen(self):
            print("WebSocket connection open.")

        def onMessage(self, payload, isBinary):
            if isBinary:
                print("Binary message received: {} bytes".format(len(payload)))
            else:
                print("Text message received: {}".format(payload.decode('utf8')))

            # echo back message verbatim
            self.sendMessage(payload, isBinary)

        def onClose(self, wasClean, code, reason):
            print("WebSocket connection closed: {}".format(reason))

To actually run above server protocol, you need some lines of
[boilerplate](https://autobahn.readthedocs.io/en/latest/websocket/programming.html#running-a-server).

### WAMP Application Component

Here is a WAMP Application Component that performs all four types
of actions that WAMP provides:

1.  **subscribe** to a topic
2.  **publish** an event
3.  **register** a procedure
4.  **call** a procedure

<!-- -->

    from autobahn.twisted.wamp import ApplicationSession
    # or: from autobahn.asyncio.wamp import ApplicationSession

    class MyComponent(ApplicationSession):

        @inlineCallbacks
        def onJoin(self, details):

            # 1. subscribe to a topic so we receive events
            def onevent(msg):
                print("Got event: {}".format(msg))

            yield self.subscribe(onevent, 'com.myapp.hello')

            # 2. publish an event to a topic
            self.publish('com.myapp.hello', 'Hello, world!')

            # 3. register a procedure for remote calling
            def add2(x, y):
                return x + y

            self.register(add2, 'com.myapp.add2')

            # 4. call a remote procedure
            res = yield self.call('com.myapp.add2', 2, 3)
            print("Got result: {}".format(res))

Above code will work on Twisted and asyncio by changing a single
line (the base class of `MyComponent`). To actually run above
application component, you need some lines of
[boilerplate](https://autobahn.readthedocs.io/en/latest/wamp/programming.html#running-components)
and a
[WAMP Router](https://autobahn.readthedocs.io/en/latest/wamp/programming.html#running-a-wamp-router).

## Packaging

The Autobahn|Python OSS project:

- build & publish *binary wheels* on [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/crossbario/autobahn-python/releases) and [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/autobahn/)
- plans to publish on [pyx](https://astral.sh/blog/introducing-pyx) once that launches
- plans to support [WheelNext](https://wheelnext.dev/) once that launches (see also: https://lwn.net/Articles/1028299/, https://labs.quansight.org/blog/python-wheels-from-tags-to-variants)
- no longer bakes & publishes Docker images *
- no longer explicitly supports [PyInstaller](https://pyinstaller.org/) packaging

> *: for commercial users, *typedef int GmbH (Germany)*, original creator and active maintainer of Autobahn, Crossbar.io and WAMP provides production grade, optimized and supported Docker images based on RHEL 9 and Debian 12, including complete SBOM for both the base system and full Python application run-time environment based on [CycloneDX v1.6](https://cyclonedx.org/) in JSON format and as a audit-level PDF/A document fulfilling strict cybersecurity requirements addressing e.g. EU CRA and [BSI TR-03183](https://www.bsi.bund.de/DE/Themen/Unternehmen-und-Organisationen/Standards-und-Zertifizierung/Technische-Richtlinien/TR-nach-Thema-sortiert/tr03183/TR-03183_node.html).

## Package Releases

Autobahn|Python provides comprehensive binary wheel coverage for all major platforms and Python implementations.

### Generic

- **Source distribution**: `autobahn-25.9.1.tar.gz`
- **Pure Python 3 wheel**: `autobahn-25.9.1-py3-none-any.whl`

> **Note**: The pure Python wheel cannot include NVX (Native Vector Extensions) optimizations and will fall back to pure Python implementations. This provides maximum compatibility but slower performance compared to platform-specific wheels with native CFFI extensions.

- `autobahn-25.9.1-pp311-pypy311_pp73-win_amd64.whl`

All wheels include native CFFI extensions for optimal performance and are available from [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/autobahn/) and [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/crossbario/autobahn-python/releases).

## Extensions

### Networking framework

Autobahn runs on both Twisted and asyncio. To select the
respective netoworking framework, install flavor:

- `asyncio`: Install asyncio (when on Python 2, otherwise it's
  included in the standard library already) and asyncio support
  in Autobahn
- `twisted`: Install Twisted and Twisted support in Autobahn

---

### WebSocket Acceleration and Compression

#### Acceleration (Deprecated)

The `accelerate` optional dependency is **no longer recommended**. Autobahn now includes **NVX** (Native Vector Extensions), which provides SIMD-accelerated native code for WebSocket operations (XOR masking and UTF-8 validation) using CFFI. See the [NVX section](#native-vector-extensions-nvx) below for details.

- ~~`accelerate`~~: Deprecated - Use NVX instead

#### Compression

Autobahn supports multiple WebSocket per-message compression algorithms via the `compress` optional dependency:

    pip install autobahn[compress]

**Compression Methods Available:**

| Method | Availability | Standard | Implementation | Notes |
|--------|--------------|----------|----------------|-------|
| **permessage-deflate** | Always | [RFC 7692](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7692) | Python stdlib (zlib) | Standard WebSocket compression |
| **permessage-brotli** | `[compress]` | [RFC 7932](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7932) | brotli / brotlicffi | **Recommended** - Best compression ratio |
| **permessage-bzip2** | Optional | Non-standard | Python stdlib (bz2) | Requires Python built with libbz2 |
| **permessage-snappy** | Manual install | Non-standard | python-snappy | Requires separate installation |

**Platform-Optimized Brotli Support:**

Autobahn includes **Brotli compression** with full binary wheel coverage optimized for both CPython and PyPy:

- **CPython**: Uses [brotli](https://github.com/google/brotli) (Google's official package, CPyExt)
- **PyPy**: Uses [brotlicffi](https://github.com/python-hyper/brotlicffi) (CFFI-based, optimized for PyPy)

**Advantages of Brotli:**
- **Superior compression ratio** compared to deflate or snappy
- **Binary wheels** for all major platforms (Linux x86_64/ARM64, macOS x86_64/ARM64, Windows x86_64)
- **IETF standard** ([RFC 7932](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7932)) for HTTP compression
- **Fast decompression** suitable for real-time applications
- **Widely adopted** by browsers and CDNs

**Resources:**
- [RFC 7932 - Brotli Compressed Data Format](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7932)
- [Google Brotli](https://github.com/google/brotli) - Official implementation
- [brotlicffi](https://github.com/python-hyper/brotlicffi) - CFFI bindings for PyPy
- [PyPI: brotlicffi](https://pypi.org/project/brotlicffi/)
- [WAMP Brotli Extension Discussion](https://github.com/wamp-proto/wamp-proto/issues/555)

**Note on Snappy:**

[Snappy](https://github.com/google/snappy) compression is available but requires manual installation of [python-snappy](https://pypi.org/project/python-snappy/) (no binary wheels):

    pip install python-snappy  # Requires libsnappy-dev system library

For most use cases, **Brotli is recommended** over Snappy due to better compression ratios and included binary wheels.

---

### Encryption and WAMP authentication

Autobahn supports running over TLS (for WebSocket and all WAMP
transports) as well as **WAMP-cryposign** authentication.

To install use this flavor:

- `encryption`: Installs TLS and WAMP-cryptosign dependencies

Autobahn also supports **WAMP-SCRAM** authentication. To install:

- `scram`: Installs WAMP-SCRAM dependencies

---

### Native vector extensions (NVX)

&gt; This is NOT yet complete - ALPHA!

Autobahn contains **NVX**, a network accelerator library that
provides SIMD accelerated native vector code for WebSocket (XOR
masking) and UTF-8 validation.

> NVX lives in namespace
> <span class="title-ref">autobahn.nvx</span> and currently
> requires a x86-86 CPU with at least SSE2 and makes use of
> SSE4.1 if available. The code is written using vector
> instrinsics, should compile with both GCC and Clang,and
> interfaces with Python using CFFI, and hence runs fast on PyPy.

---

### WAMP Serializers

**As of v25.11.1, all WAMP serializers are included by default** - batteries included!

Autobahn|Python now ships with full support for all WAMP serializers out-of-the-box:

- **JSON** (standard library) - always available
- **MessagePack** - high-performance binary serialization
- **CBOR** - IETF standard binary serialization (RFC 8949)
- **UBJSON** - Universal Binary JSON
- **Flatbuffers** - Google's zero-copy serialization (vendored)

#### Architecture & Performance

The serializer dependencies are optimized for both **CPython** and **PyPy**:

| Serializer | CPython | PyPy | Wheel Type | Notes |
|------------|---------|------|------------|-------|
| **json** | stdlib | stdlib | - | Always available |
| **msgpack** | Binary wheel (C extension) | u-msgpack-python (pure Python) | Native + Universal | PyPy JIT makes pure Python faster than C |
| **ujson** | Binary wheel | Binary wheel | Native | Available for both implementations |
| **cbor2** | Binary wheel | Pure Python fallback | Native + Universal | Binary wheels + py3-none-any |
| **ubjson** | Pure Python | Pure Python | Source | Set `PYUBJSON_NO_EXTENSION=1` to skip C build |
| **flatbuffers** | Vendored | Vendored | Included | Always available, no external dependency |

**Key Design Principles:**

1. **Batteries Included**: All serializers available without extra install steps
2. **PyPy Optimization**: Pure Python implementations leverage PyPy's JIT for superior performance
3. **Binary Wheels**: Native wheels for all major platforms (Linux x86_64/ARM64, macOS x86_64/ARM64, Windows x86_64)
4. **Zero System Pollution**: All dependencies install cleanly via wheels or pure Python
5. **WAMP Compliance**: Full protocol support out-of-the-box

**Total Additional Size**: ~590KB (negligible compared to full application install)

#### Platform Coverage

All serializer dependencies provide binary wheels for:
- **Linux**: x86_64, ARM64 (manylinux, musllinux)
- **macOS**: x86_64 (Intel), ARM64 (Apple Silicon)
- **Windows**: x86_64 (AMD64), ARM64
- **Python**: 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, 3.14 (including 3.14t free-threaded)
- **Implementations**: CPython, PyPy 3.11+

#### Backwards Compatibility

The `serialization` optional dependency is maintained for backwards compatibility:

    pip install autobahn[serialization]  # Still works, but now a no-op

#### ujson Acceleration

To speed up JSON on CPython using the faster `ujson`, set:

    AUTOBAHN_USE_UJSON=1

> **Warning**: Using `ujson` will break the ability of Autobahn to transport and translate binary application payloads in WAMP transparently. This ability depends on features of the standard library `json` module not available in `ujson`.

#### Recommendations

- **General use**: JSON (stdlib) or CBOR
- **High performance**: MessagePack or Flatbuffers
- **Strict standards**: CBOR (IETF RFC 8949)
- **Zero-copy**: Flatbuffers (for large payloads)

---

## Dependency Analysis

**Autobahn|Python is fully optimized for both CPython and PyPy with comprehensive binary wheel coverage.**

All dependencies follow these design principles:

1. **CFFI over CPyExt**: All native extensions use CFFI for optimal PyPy compatibility
2. **Binary Wheels First**: Native wheels available for all major platforms
3. **PyPy-Optimized**: Platform-specific packages leverage PyPy's JIT compiler
4. **Zero System Pollution**: No system libraries or build tools required for installation
