2025 Report: Destructive Malware in Open Source Packages
Destructive malware is rising across open source registries, using delays and kill switches to wipe code, break builds, and disrupt CI/CD.
aio-udp-server
Advanced tools
Yet another async UDP server. Based on bare sockets.
Killer-feature: bandwidth throttling for uploading & downloading.
UDPServer.__init__UDP server constructor.
Arguments:
upload_speed — maximum outgoing traffic speed in "byter per second" (default: 0 — unlimited);download_speed — maximum incoming traffic speed in "byter per second" (default: 0 — unlimited);recv_max_size — maximum socket window size for receiving (default: 262144).UDPServer.runServer startup function.
Arguments:
host — socket bind host/interface (e.g. "0.0.0.0", "127.0.0.1" or "localhost");port — socket listen port;loop — event loop.UDPServer.sendEnqueue data for sending.
Arguments:
data — bytes or bytearray data for sending;addr — tuple of host and port (e.g. ("127.0.0.1", 9876) or ("some.domain.com", 5556)).UDPServer.subscribeSubscribe coro or future on a datagram received event.
Arguments:
fut — coroutine or future with arguments data and addr.UDPServer.unsubscribeUnsubscribe coro or future from a datagram received event.
Arguments:
fut — coroutine or future.UDPServer._connection_made() — virtual method, call after socket bind successfully;UDPServer._socket_error(data, addr) — virtual method, call when got socket error;UDPServer._datagram_received(data, addr) — virtual method, call each time when server got incoming data, can be used for modify data before pass it to subscribers;UDPServer._notify_subscribers(data, addr) — virtual method, call with params returned from _datagram_received.import asyncio
