How to start twisted's reactor from ipython

问题

I need to start a twisted'reactor from within ipython in a way that allows to go on interacting. Ipython's man page has references to twisted but I couldn't understand the way I should proceed. Documentation references IPython.kernel.twistedutil so that my impression is that it should be a standard solution... Thanks in advance

Is this what you mean?

This will start the Twisted reactor in a thread alongside IPython's main thread. You should be able to access the Twisted thread from IPython.

Another possible solution would be to start a manhole "Service" alongside your Twisted application in a .tac file.

回答2:

import thread

from twisted.internet import reactor, defer

# This usualy raises Unhandled Error
# exceptions.ValueError: signal only works in main thread
thread.start_new(reactor.run, ())

@defer.inlineCallbacks
def check():
    print "It works!"
    yield

reactor.callFromThread(check)
