I'm looking for get the outputs from a python script to my django web server.
I will use pySmartDL in my script, so i need it to run even when django close itself and django needs to get data from a running script when it start-up.
pySmartDL exemple script :
import time
from pySmartDL import SmartDL
url_100mb_file = ['http://ipv4.download.thinkbroadband.com/100MB.zip']
obj = SmartDL(url_100mb_file, progress_bar=False)
obj.start(blocking=False)
while not obj.isFinished():
print("Speed: %s" % obj.get_speed(human=True))
print("Already downloaded: %s" % obj.get_dl_size(human=True))
print("Eta: %s" % obj.get_eta(human=True))
print("Progress: %d%%" % (obj.get_progress()*100))
print("Progress bar: %s" % obj.get_progress_bar())
print("Status: %s" % obj.get_status())
print("\n"*2+"="*50+"\n"*2)
time.sleep(0.2)
if obj.isSuccessful():
print("downloaded file to '%s'" % obj.get_dest())
print("download task took %ss" % obj.get_dl_time(human=True))
print("File hashes:")
print(" * MD5: %s" % obj.get_data_hash('md5'))
print(" * SHA1: %s" % obj.get_data_hash('sha1'))
print(" * SHA256: %s" % obj.get_data_hash('sha256'))
else:
print("There were some errors:")
for e in obj.get_errors():
print(str(e))
# Do something with obj.get_dest()
As you can see here the script will print output several times while a file is downloading with this :
time.sleep(0.2)
So i need to get the output dynamically.
I found some answer with websocket (with redis and django-channels or django-redis) and nodeJS but i can't find code example for sending the script output to redis server and how to get them from django. And i don't know much about nodeJS.
Thanks for your time!
Don't complicated matters by involving node.js and django channels. This is something that you can do with just redis.
rdb = redis.Redis()
while not obj.isFinished():
print("Speed: %s" % obj.get_speed(human=True))
print("Already downloaded: %s" % obj.get_dl_size(human=True))
print("Eta: %s" % obj.get_eta(human=True))
print("Progress: %d%%" % (obj.get_progress()*100))
print("Progress bar: %s" % obj.get_progress_bar())
print("Status: %s" % obj.get_status())
print("\n"*2+"="*50+"\n"*2)
rbd.set('download_progress',obj.get_progress_bar())
time.sleep(0.2)
Then in your django views that need to know about this download
rdb = redis.Redis()
val = rdb.get('download_progress')
