# [Kademlia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kademlia) in Python
|
|
[](https://travis-ci.org/bmuller/kademlia)
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
pip install kademlia
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
*This assumes you have a working familiarity with Twisted.*
|
|
|
|
Assuming you want to connect to an existing network (run the standalone server example below if you don't have a network):
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from twisted.internet import reactor
|
|
from twisted.python import log
|
|
from kademlia.network import Server
|
|
import sys
|
|
|
|
# log to std out
|
|
log.startLogging(sys.stdout)
|
|
|
|
def quit(result):
|
|
print "Key result:", result
|
|
reactor.stop()
|
|
|
|
def get(result, server):
|
|
reactor.stop()
|
|
#return server.get("a key").addCallback(quit)
|
|
|
|
def done(found, server):
|
|
log.msg("Found nodes: %s" % found)
|
|
return server.set("a key", "a value").addCallback(get, server)
|
|
|
|
server = Server()
|
|
# next line, or use reactor.listenUDP(5678, server)
|
|
server.listen(5678)
|
|
server.bootstrap([('127.0.0.1', 1234)]).addCallback(done, two)
|
|
|
|
reactor.run()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Stand-alone Server
|
|
If all you want to do is run a local server, just start the example server:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
twistd -noy server.tac
|
|
```
