This file is included in README.rst from the top-level
so it is limited to pure ReST markup, not Sphinx.
gevent is a coroutine_ -based Python_ networking library that uses
`greenlet <https://greenlet.readthedocs.io>`_ to provide a high-level synchronous API on top of the `libev`_
or `libuv`_ event loop.
Features include:
* Fast event loop based on `libev`_ or `libuv`_.
* Lightweight execution units based on greenlets.
* API that re-uses concepts from the Python standard library (for
examples there are `events`_ and
`queues`_).
* `Cooperative sockets with SSL support <http://www.gevent.org/api/index.html#networking>`_
* `Cooperative DNS queries <http://www.gevent.org/dns.html>`_ performed through a threadpool,
dnspython, or c-ares.
* `Monkey patching utility <http://www.gevent.org/intro.html#monkey-patching>`_ to get 3rd party modules to become cooperative
* TCP/UDP/HTTP servers
* Subprocess support (through `gevent.subprocess`_)
* Thread pools
gevent is `inspired by eventlet`_ but features a more consistent API,
simpler implementation and better performance. Read why others `use
gevent`_ and check out the list of the `open source projects based on
gevent`_.
gevent was written by `Denis Bilenko <http://denisbilenko.com/>`_.
Since version 1.1, gevent is maintained by Jason Madden for
`NextThought <https://nextthought.com>`_ with help from the
`contributors <https://github.com/gevent/gevent/graphs/contributors>`_
and is licensed under the MIT license.

Installation and Requirements
===============================
.. _installation:
..
This file is included in README.rst so it is limited to plain
ReST markup, not Sphinx.
.. note::
If you are reading this document on the `Python Package Index`_
(PyPI, https://pypi.org/), it is specific to the version of gevent that
you are viewing. If you are viewing this document on gevent.org, it
refers to the current state of gevent in source control (git
master).
Supported Platforms
===================
This version of gevent runs on Python 2.7.9 and up, and Python 3.5, 3.6, 3.7 and
3.8. gevent requires the `greenlet <https://greenlet.readthedocs.io>`_
library and will install the `cffi`_ library by default on Windows.
The cffi library will become the default on all platforms in a future
release of gevent.
This version of gevent also runs on PyPy 7.0 or above. On PyPy, there
are no external dependencies.
gevent is tested on Windows, macOS, and Linux, and should run on most
other Unix-like operating systems (e.g., FreeBSD, Solaris, etc.)
.. note::
Windows is supported as a tier 2, "best effort," platform. It is
suitable for development, but not recommended for production.
On Windows using the deprecated libev backend, gevent is
limited to a maximum of 1024 open sockets due to
`limitations in libev`_. This limitation should not exist
with the default libuv backend.
Older Versions of Python
------------------------
Users of older versions of Python 2 or Python 3 may install an older
version of gevent. Note that these versions are generally not
supported.

Installation
============
.. note::
This section is about installing released versions of gevent as
distributed on the `Python Package Index`_. For building gevent
from source, including customizing the build and embedded
libraries, see `Installing From Source`_.
.. _Python Package Index: http://pypi.org/project/gevent
gevent and greenlet can both be installed with `pip`_, e.g., ``pip
install gevent``. Installation using `buildout
<http://docs.buildout.org/en/latest/>`_ is also supported.
On Windows, macOS, and Linux, both gevent and greenlet are
distributed as binary `wheels`_.
.. tip::
You need Pip 8.0 or later, or buildout 2.10.0 to install the binary
wheels on Windows or macOS. On Linux, you'll need `pip 19
<https://github.com/pypa/pip/pull/5008>`_ to install the
manylinux2010 wheels.
.. tip::
Binary wheels cannot be installed on non-manylinux2010 compatible
Linux systems, such as those that use `musl
<https://musl.libc.org>`_, including `Alpine Linux
<https://alpinelinux.org>`_. Those systems must install from source.
Installing From Source
----------------------
If you are unable to use the binary wheels (for platforms where no
pre-built wheels are available or if wheel installation is disabled),
you can build gevent from source. A normal ``pip install`` will
fall back to doing this if no binary wheel is available. See
`Installing From Source`_ for more, including common installation issues.
Extra Dependencies
==================
gevent has no runtime dependencies outside the standard library,
greenlet, and (on some platforms) `cffi`_. However, there are a number
of additional libraries that extend gevent's functionality and will be
used if they are available. All of these may be installed using
`setuptools extras
<https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setuptools.html#declaring-extras-optional-features-with-their-own-dependencies>`_,
as named below, e.g., ``pip install gevent[events]``.
events
Configurable event support using `zope.event
<https://pypi.org/project/zope.event>`_ is highly recommended for
configurable event support.
dnspython
Enables the new pure-Python resolver, backed by `dnspython
<https://pypi.org/project/dnspython>`_. On Python 2, this also
includes `idna <https://pypi.org/project/idna>`_. They can be
installed with the ``dnspython`` extra.
monitor
Enhancements to gevent's self-monitoring capabilities. This
includes the `psutil <https://pypi.org/project/psutil>`_ library
which is needed to monitor memory usage. (Note that this may not
build on all platforms.)
recommended
A shortcut for installing suggested extras together.
test
Everything needed to run the complete gevent test suite.
