Example 1: Building a Simple TCP Based Server that allows multiple connections at once and sends a fortune cookie to the client. Includes simple TCP based client that displays the fortune cookie. Components used: SimpleServer, FortuneCookieProtocol, Pipeline, TCPClient, ConsoleEchoer

#!/usr/bin/python

from Kamaelia.Protocol.FortuneCookieProtocol import FortuneCookieProtocol
from Kamaelia.SimpleServerComponent import SimpleServer
from Kamaelia.Internet.TCPClient import TCPClient
from Kamaelia.Util.Console import ConsoleEchoer
from Kamaelia.Chassis.Pipeline import Pipeline
import random

clientServerTestPort=random.randint(1500,1599)

SimpleServer(protocol=FortuneCookieProtocol, port=clientServerTestPort).activate()

Pipeline(TCPClient("127.0.0.1",clientServerTestPort),
         ConsoleEchoer()
        ).run()
