# PortKeeper

Reserve and manage localhost hosts/ports for starting servers. Transparently updates `.env` and `config.json` files and keeps a local registry so multiple processes and users can coordinate port reservations.

## Features

- **Unique Port Reservations**: Ensures that ports are uniquely reserved within a specified range, preventing conflicts.
- **Concurrency Safety**: Uses file locking to ensure safe port reservation and release operations in concurrent environments.
- **Multi-Port Reservations**: Allows reserving multiple ports at once with a single call using the `count` parameter, ideal for applications needing multiple ports.
- **Flexible Port Ranges**: Supports both default and custom port ranges for reservations.
- **Host-Specific Reservations**: Supports reserving ports for specific hosts, allowing for host-specific configurations.
- **CLI Interface**: Provides a command-line interface for easy port management.

## Install

```bash
python3 -m pip install -U portkeeper
```

For local development (editable install):
```bash
make install-dev
```

## Quick Start (TL;DR)

```bash
# Get a free backend port (service profile 8888–8988) and run a server
python3 -m http.server $(portkeeper port --profile service)

# Or run without $(...) using token replacement
portkeeper run --profile service -- python3 -m http.server {PORT}

# Preflight multiple ports and update .env/config before starting your stack
cat > pk.config.json << 'JSON'
{
  "host": "127.0.0.1",
  "ports": [
    { "key": "SERVICE_PORT",  "preferred": 8888, "range": [8888, 8988] },
    { "key": "FRONTEND_PORT", "preferred": 8080, "range": [8080, 8180] }
  ],
  "outputs": [ { "type": "env", "path": ".env" } ]
}
JSON
portkeeper prepare --config pk.config.json
```

## Usage

### Python API

```python
from portkeeper import PortRegistry

reg = PortRegistry()
# Prefer 8888, then search 8888-8988; bind to 127.0.0.1
res = reg.reserve(preferred=8888, port_range=(8888, 8988), host="127.0.0.1", hold=False, owner="myapp")

# Write/merge .env
reg.write_env({"PORT": str(res.port)}, path=".env", merge=True)

# Update config.json atomically (backup config.json.bak if present)
reg.update_config_json({"server": {"host": res.host, "port": res.port}}, path="config.json", backup=True)
```

Context manager:
```python
from portkeeper import PortRegistry

with PortRegistry().reserve(preferred=8080, port_range=(8080, 8180), hold=True) as r:
    # start your server with r.host, r.port
    pass  # server init here
# automatically released
```

### CLI

```bash
# Reserve preferred 8888 or a port in 8888..8988, hold it, and print JSON
portkeeper reserve --preferred 8888 --range 8888-8988 --hold --owner myapp

# To write to .env file, use:
portkeeper reserve --range 8080-8180
# Then manually update .env with PORT=[reserved_port]

# For different services, specify manually:
portkeeper reserve --range 8888-8988 --hold --owner service
portkeeper reserve --range 8080-8180 --hold --owner frontend

# Generic presets (no product-specific names):
#   service  -> preferred 8888, range 8888-8988, default env key SERVICE_PORT
#   frontend -> preferred 8080, range 8080-8180, default env key FRONTEND_PORT
portkeeper reserve --profile service --write-env
portkeeper reserve --profile frontend --write-env

# Release from registry (best-effort)
portkeeper release 8080

# Show registry json
portkeeper status
```

#### Which `portkeeper` am I running?

Make sure your shell resolves to the expected binary (e.g., project venv):

```bash
which portkeeper
python - << 'PY'
import portkeeper, sys
print('path:', getattr(portkeeper, '__file__', '?'))
print('version:', getattr(portkeeper, '__version__', '?'))
PY

# To force the venv version explicitly
python -m portkeeper.cli status
```

### Command Line Interface

PortKeeper now includes a CLI for easy port management:

```bash
# Reserve a port
portkeeper reserve --host 127.0.0.1 --hold

# Reserve a port within a specific range
portkeeper reserve --range 8000-9000

# Reserve a specific port
portkeeper reserve --port 8080
```

### Reserving a Single Port

```bash
portkeeper reserve
```

This command reserves a single port in the default range (1024-65535).

### Reserving Multiple Ports

```bash
portkeeper reserve --count 3 --range 5000-5100
```

This command reserves 3 ports within the range 5000-5100.

### Reserving a Port with Hold

```bash
portkeeper reserve --hold
```

This reserves a port and holds it open with a socket, preventing other processes from using it even if they don't check the registry.

### Reserving Multiple Ports with Hold

```bash
portkeeper reserve --count 2 --hold --range 5000-5100
```

This reserves 2 ports within the specified range and holds them open with sockets.

### Releasing Ports

Ports are automatically released when the process ends if not held. To manually release:

```bash
portkeeper release 5000
```

Or release multiple ports:

```bash
portkeeper release 5000 5001 5002
```

## Network Scanning for Free Ports and Hosts

PortKeeper can scan your local network to find free ports and hosts:

```bash
# Using the provided bash example
bash examples/bash/port_scan.sh

# Using the provided Python example
python examples/python/network_scan.py
```

### Python API for Network Scanning

```python
from portkeeper import PortRegistry

# Initialize registry
registry = PortRegistry()

# Scan local network for free ports
free_ports_by_host = registry.scan_local_network(port_range=(8000, 8050))

# Reserve a port on any available host
reservation = registry.reserve_network_port(port_range=(8000, 8050), hold=True)
print(f"Reserved port {reservation.port} on host {reservation.host}")
```

## Preflight multiple ports and outputs with `prepare`

Use a single config (JSON or YAML) to reserve several ports and update multiple outputs before starting your stack.

`pk.config.json` example:

```json
{
  "host": "127.0.0.1",
  "ports": [
    { "key": "SERVICE_PORT", "preferred": 8888, "range": [8888, 8988] },
    { "key": "FRONTEND_PORT", "preferred": 8080, "range": [8080, 8180] }
  ],
  "outputs": [
    { "type": "env", "path": ".env" },
    { "type": "json", "path": "config.json", "map": {
      "httpUrl": "https://${SERVICE_HOST:-localhost}:${SERVICE_PORT}",
      "wsUrl":   "wss://${SERVICE_HOST:-localhost}:${SERVICE_PORT}/ws"
    }},
    { "type": "runtime_js", "path": "runtime-config.js", "map": {
      "httpUrl": "https://${SERVICE_HOST:-localhost}:${SERVICE_PORT}",
      "wsUrl":   "wss://${SERVICE_HOST:-localhost}:${SERVICE_PORT}/ws"
    }}
  ]
}
```

YAML example (`pk.config.yaml`):

```yaml
host: 127.0.0.1
ports:
  - key: SERVICE_PORT
    preferred: 8888
    range: [8888, 8988]
  - key: FRONTEND_PORT
    preferred: 8080
    range: [8080, 8180]
outputs:
  - type: env
    path: .env
  - type: json
    path: examples/visual-programming/config.json
    map:
      httpUrl: "https://${SERVICE_HOST:-localhost}:${SERVICE_PORT}"
      wsUrl:   "wss://${SERVICE_HOST:-localhost}:${SERVICE_PORT}/ws"
      visualUrl: "http://${FRONTEND_HOST:-localhost}:${FRONTEND_PORT}"
  - type: runtime_js
    path: examples/visual-programming/runtime-config.js
    map:
      httpUrl: "https://${SERVICE_HOST:-localhost}:${SERVICE_PORT}"
      wsUrl:   "wss://${SERVICE_HOST:-localhost}:${SERVICE_PORT}/ws"
```

Run preflight:

```bash
portkeeper prepare --config pk.config.json
# Optional YAML support (requires pyyaml): portkeeper prepare -c pk.config.yaml
```

- Reserves all ports up front
- Writes `.env` generically (e.g., SERVICE_PORT, FRONTEND_PORT)
- Updates JSON targets (including package.json) and a runtime JS snippet
- Variable expansion supports `${VAR}` placeholders from reserved keys or environment

### Integration: EDPMT (example)

```bash
# In EDPMT repo root
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -e /home/tom/github/dynapsys/portkeeper

# Preflight ports and configs
python -m portkeeper.cli prepare --config pk.config.json

# Start services (wrapper for scripts/start-all.sh)
make start

# Or run frontend via run mode
portkeeper run --profile frontend --env-key FRONTEND_PORT --write-env FRONTEND_PORT --env-path .env -- \
  python3 -m http.server {PORT}
```

### Troubleshooting

#### TypeError: `PortRegistry.reserve() got an unexpected keyword argument 'preferred'`

Cause: CLI and core versions are mismatched (older core signature). Fixes:

```bash
# Ensure you use the intended venv
source /path/to/venv/bin/activate
pip install -U portkeeper

# Force the venv’s CLI invocation
python -m portkeeper.cli status

# If needed, reinstall editable from your repo
pip install -e /path/to/portkeeper
```

As a fallback to print a port using the positional signature:

```bash
python - << 'PY'
from portkeeper.core import PortRegistry
r = PortRegistry().reserve(8888, (8888, 8988), '127.0.0.1', False, None)
print(r.port)
PY
```

## Examples

- See `examples/` for:
  - Basic reserve + `.env` + `config.json`: `examples/basic_reserve.py`
  - Reserve + run simple HTTP server: `examples/reserve_and_run_http_server.py`
  - CLI workflow: `examples/cli_examples.sh`
  - Docker patterns: `examples/docker/README.md`

## Docker integration

See `examples/docker/README.md` for a few common patterns:
- Compose + `.env` (recommended for dev)
- `docker run` + `.env`
- App image with configurable internal port

## Tests

Run tests:
```bash
make install-dev
make test
```

Tests cover:
- Reserving ports with ranges and preferred ports
- Holding ports and preventing rebinds while held
- Atomic writes to `.env` and `config.json`
- CLI `reserve` and `release`

## Lint & Format

```bash
make lint
make format
```

## Build & Publish

Build artifacts:
```bash
make build
```

Publish (requires PyPI credentials via environment variables or `~/.pypirc`):
```bash
make publish           # to PyPI
make publish-test      # to TestPyPI
```

If you see `HTTP 400 File already exists`, bump the version and retry:
```bash
make bump-patch && make publish
```

One-liner release flows:
```bash
make release-patch
make release-minor
make release-major
```

## Publishing to PyPI or TestPyPI

PortKeeper provides a streamlined process for building and publishing releases to PyPI or TestPyPI using a combination of `Makefile` rules and a dedicated `publish.sh` script. This section explains how to publish new versions, with detailed steps, diagrams, and examples.

### Publication Workflow

The publication process follows these key steps, ensuring builds are clean, versions are unique, and credentials are handled securely:

```
+-------------------+       +-------------------+       +-------------------+       +-------------------+
| Bump Version      | ----> | Clean Artifacts   | ----> | Build Package     | ----> | Upload to PyPI    |
| (if needed)       |       | (optional)        |       |                   |       | or TestPyPI       |
+-------------------+       +-------------------+       +-------------------+       +-------------------+
```

### Prerequisites

Before publishing, ensure you have:
1. **PyPI/TestPyPI Account**: Register on [PyPI](https://pypi.org/) and [TestPyPI](https://test.pypi.org/) if you haven't already.
2. **API Token**: Generate an API token for secure authentication. Use `__token__` as the username and the token value as the password (format: `pypi-<YOUR_TOKEN>`).
3. **Credentials Setup**: Configure your credentials using one of these methods to avoid interactive prompts:
   - **Environment Variables**: Set `TWINE_USERNAME` and `TWINE_PASSWORD` in your shell.
   - **Command-Line Arguments**: Use `--username` and `--password` with the `publish.sh` script.
   - **~/.pypirc File**: Add your credentials to the `~/.pypirc` file as shown below.

#### Setting Up ~/.pypirc

Create or edit the file `~/.pypirc` with the following content, replacing `<YOUR_TOKEN>` with your actual token:

```ini
[distutils]
index-servers =
  pypi
  testpypi

[pypi]
repository = https://upload.pypi.org/legacy/
username = __token__
password = pypi-<YOUR_TOKEN>

[testpypi]
repository = https://test.pypi.org/legacy/
username = __token__
password = pypi-<YOUR_TOKEN>
```

### Simplified Usage

The easiest way to publish a new version is to use the `Makefile` rules, which handle version bumping, building, and uploading in a single command. Here are the primary commands:

- **Release a Patch Version to PyPI**: Increments the patch version (e.g., 0.1.11 to 0.1.12), builds, and publishes to PyPI.
  ```bash
  make release-patch
  ```
- **Release to TestPyPI**: Builds and publishes the current version to TestPyPI for testing.
  ```bash
  make publish-test
  ```

For more control, you can use the `publish.sh` script directly with custom options (see detailed examples below).

### Detailed Usage Examples

Here are several scenarios to demonstrate different ways to publish PortKeeper:

1. **Basic Release to PyPI with Version Bump**:
   Use the Makefile to handle everything in one step.
   ```bash
   make release-patch
   ```
   *Output*: Bumps version (e.g., 0.1.11 to 0.1.12), cleans artifacts, builds, and uploads to PyPI.

2. **Publish to TestPyPI for Testing**:
   Test a release on TestPyPI before publishing to PyPI.
   ```bash
   make publish-test
   ```
   *Output*: Builds and uploads the current version to TestPyPI.

3. **Manual Control with publish.sh and Custom Credentials**:
   Use the script directly with explicit credentials for PyPI (avoid interactive prompts).
   ```bash
   scripts/publish.sh --username "__token__" --password "pypi-<YOUR_TOKEN>" --bump patch --clean
   ```
   *Output*: Bumps patch version, cleans artifacts, builds, and uploads to PyPI with provided credentials.

4. **Using Environment Variables for Credentials**:
   Set credentials as environment variables to avoid command-line arguments.
   ```bash
   export TWINE_USERNAME="__token__"
   export TWINE_PASSWORD="pypi-<YOUR_TOKEN>"
   scripts/publish.sh --test --bump minor
   ```
   *Output*: Bumps minor version, builds, and uploads to TestPyPI using environment variables for credentials.

5. **Manual Steps for Full Control**:
   Perform each step manually for maximum control over the process.
   ```bash
   make bump-patch  # Bump patch version
   make clean       # Clean old artifacts
   make build       # Build package
   make publish     # Upload to PyPI
   ```
   *Output*: Increments version, cleans, builds, and publishes to PyPI in separate steps.

### Troubleshooting Common Issues

- **Version Conflict**: If you see "File already exists" on PyPI, ensure you bump the version before publishing:
  ```bash
  make bump-patch
  make publish
  ```
- **Credential Prompt Issues**: If the terminal doesn't support secure input, use environment variables or command-line arguments as shown in examples. For a persistent solution, configure `~/.pypirc`:
  1. Open or create the file `~/.pypirc` with a text editor.
  2. Add the following content, replacing `<YOUR_TOKEN>` with your actual token for PyPI or TestPyPI:
     ```ini
     [distutils]
     index-servers =
       pypi
       testpypi

     [pypi]
     repository = https://upload.pypi.org/legacy/
     username = __token__
     password = pypi-<YOUR_TOKEN>

     [testpypi]
     repository = https://test.pypi.org/legacy/
     username = __token__
     password = pypi-<YOUR_TOKEN>
     ```
  3. Save the file and ensure its permissions are set to readable only by you:
     ```bash
     chmod 600 ~/.pypirc
     ```
  4. Retry the publication command:
     ```bash
     make publish-test  # For TestPyPI
     make publish       # For PyPI
     ```
- **Build Failures**: Ensure your `pyproject.toml` is compliant with PEP 639 (license classifiers removed). If issues persist, clean the virtual environment and rebuild:
  ```bash
  rm -rf .venv
  make build
  ```
