# Inter-Process Communications (IPC)
[](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ipcpy/)

[](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ipcpy)
A simple library to allow processes to use UDP to communicate
with each other.
This is yet again another rehash of old work in a new way ... I keep
reinventing the wheel. :)
**in development**
## Example
``` python
import ipcpy as ipc
from collections import namedtuple
Msg = namedtuple("Msg","a b c")
d = {
22: ("i", int),
23: ("iii", Msg),
}
msglib = MsgLibrary(d)
run = True
def client():
global run
print("Client started")
s = ipc.SocketUDP()
s.open(TIMEOUT)
for i in range(10):
pkt = msglib.pack(MSG_ID_INT, [i])
print(f"send: {pkt}")
s.sendto(pkt, (HOST,PORT))
time.sleep(0.25)
# print('.')
run = False
def server():
global run
print("Client started")
s = ipc.SocketUDP()
s.bind(HOST,PORT,TIMEOUT)
while run:
data, address = s.recvfrom(MSG_SIZE)
if data is not None:
id, info = ipc.get_msg(data)
if id is not None:
msg = msglib.unpack(id, info)
print(f"recvfrom: {address} {info} {msg}")
else:
print(f"ERROR: {info}")
```
