Overview
--------

circuits is a **Lightweight** **Event** driven and **Asynchronous**
**Application Framework** for the `Python Programming Language`_
with a strong **Component** Architecture.

circuits also includes a lightweight, high performance and scalable
HTTP/WSGI compliant web server as well as various I/O and Networking
components.

To take full advantage of circuits and its architecture, circuits
encourages you to design your application in terms of loosely coupled
components. Circuits has a very powerful message passing system that
enables components to interact with each other via events. Applications
written this way tend to be more maintainable, easier to develop and
scale to complex systems.

circuits' **Loosely Coupled** **Component Architecture** allows for a
high level of **Reuse** and **Scalability**. Simpler components can be
combined together to form Complex Components and provide higher level
functionality and abstraction. Much of the circuits component library is
designed and built this way.

- **Project website**: https://bitbucket.org/prologic/circuits/
- **PyPI page**: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/circuits

Features
--------

- event driven
- concurrency support
- component architecture
- asynchronous I/O components
- no required external dependencies
- full featured web framework (circuits.web)
- coroutine based synchronization primitives

Requirements
------------

- circuits has no dependencies beyond the `Python Standard Library`_.

Supported Platforms
-------------------

- Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X
- Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.2, 3.3
- pypy 2.0

**Windows**: We acknowledge that Windows exists and make reasonable efforts
to maintain compatibility. Unfortunately we cannot guarantee
support at this time.

**NB**: We are working toward getting Windows supported.

Installation
------------

The simplest and recommended way to install circuits is with pip.
You may install the latest stable release from PyPI with pip::

> pip install circuits

If you do not have pip, you may use easy_install::

> easy_install circuits

Alternatively, you may download the source package from the
`PyPi Page`_ or the `Downloads page`_ on the
`Website`_; extract it and install using::

> python setup.py install
