IPC PurePy

The package allow sent core Python objects between two likely independent Python processes using UNIX sockets.

It provides a Server class (Server), a Client function (communicate), and a PyCoreObject type alias.

PyCoreObject alias:

It's a type alias defined as the union of the basic types of Python language (str, int, float, bool, None) and common collections (list[PyCoreObject] and dict[str, PyCoreObject]).
The dict type key must be are str type and value are PyCoreObject.

function is_pycoreobject(object: Any) -> bool:

This recursive function allows to check if the object passed to it is a valid PyCoreObject.

class Server(socket_path: str):

The class defines the server socket as a context handler. Through the wait_connection() method it waits for some external connection and returns the PyCoreObject sent to it.
The connection to the client is expected to be closed with the close_connection() method.
Server class implements the reply() method that allows to send a PyCoreObject to the client if the connection is alive.

function communicate(socket_path: str, data: PyCoreObject) -> PyCoreObject:

Client endpoint to communicate with the server socket, send data to server socket and expect receive a response from it.
