Changes in PyZMQ

This is a coarse summary of changes in pyzmq versions. For a full changelog, consult the git log.

26

26.2

26.2 fixes some regressions introduced by the new build system in 26.0:

These changes all match the behavior of pyzmq 25.1.2:

include libzmq location in rpath when building from source
restore libsodium randombytes_close fix for bundled libzmq
Disable sometimes-broken IPC/EPOLL on Windows

Installing pyzmq from source on Windows should build with IPC enabled by default, but the Windows wheels on PyPI have it disabled because it produces unavoidable crashes for some users.

IPC support via epoll on Windows was disabled in pyzmq 24 due to crashes, this was reintroduced somewhat unintentionally via the new build system in 26.0 (there was a chance libzmq 4.3.5 would fix it), but unfortunately the crashes remain, so IPC is disabled again in 26.2. See issue #1981 for more details.

26.1.1

Windows wheels now statically link msvcp instead of bundling msvcp.dll, which could cause compatibility problems.

26.1.0

26.1.0 is the first release with wheels for CPython 3.13. Free-threading support in CPython 3.13 is experimental, but since libzmq sockets themselves aren't threadsafe, pyzmq sockets should still be handled with locks.

pyzmq tests are no longer distributed as part of the package
fix CFFI backend compilation with -Werror=incompatible-pointer-types

26.0.3

Add Cython as build dependency for non-pypy, non-cpython implementations (fixes install on pyston)

26.0.2

When bundling libsodium, download from libsodium's releases on GitHub instead of download.libsodium.org, which appears to error frequently.

26.0.1

Fix install from source with cmake < 3.21

26.0.0

pyzmq 26 is a small release, but with some big changes hopefully nobody will notice, except for some users (especially on Windows) where pyzmq releases did not work.

The highlights are:

The Cython backend has been rewritten using Cython 3's pure Python mode.
The build system has been rewritten to use CMake via scikit-build-core instead of setuptools (setup.py is gone!).
Bundled libzmq is updated to 4.3.5, which changes its license from LGPL to MPL.

This means:

Cython >=3.0 is now a build requirement (if omitted, source distributions should still build from Cython-generated .c files without any Cython present)
pyzmq's Cython backend is a single extension module, which should improve install size, import time, compile time, etc.
pyzmq's Cython backend is now BSD-licensed, matching the rest of pyzmq.
The license of the libzmq library (included in pyzmq wheels) starting with 4.3.5 is now Mozilla Public License 2.0 (MPL-2.0).
when building pyzmq from source and it falls back on bundled libzmq, libzmq and libsodium are built as static libraries using their own build systems (CMake for libzmq, autotools for libsodium except on Windows where it uses msbuild) rather than bundling libzmq with tweetnacl as a Python Extension.

Since the new build system uses libzmq and libsodium's own build systems, evaluated at install time, building pyzmq with bundled libzmq from source should be much more likely to succeed on a variety of platforms than the previous method, where their build system was skipped and approximated as a Python extension. But I would also be very surprised if I didn't break anything in the process of replacing 14 years of setup.py from scratch, especially cases like cross-compiling. Please report any issues you encounter building pyzmq.

See build docs for more info.

New:

Experimental support for wheels on windows-arm64
Socket.bind('tcp://ip:0') can be used as a context manager to bind to a random port. The resulting URL can be retrieved as socket.last_endpoint.
Add SyncSocket and SyncContext type aliases for the default Socket/Context implementations, since the base classes are Generics, type-wise. These are type aliases only to be used in type checking, not actual classes.

Enhancements:

repr(Frame) now produces a nice repr, summarizing Frame contents (without getting too large), e.g. <zmq.Frame(b'abcdefghijkl'...52B)>

Breaking changes:

str(Frame) no longer returns the whole frame contents interpreted as utf8-bytes. Instead, it returns the new summarized repr, which produces more logical results with print, etc. bytes(Frame) remains unchanged, and utf-8 text strings can still be produced with: bytes(Frame).decode("utf8"), which works in all versions of pyzmq and does the same thing.
Stop building Python 3.7 wheels for manylinux1, which reached EOL in January, 2022. The new build system doesn't seem to be able to find cmake in that environment.

25

25.1.2

Fix builds with some recent compilers and bundled libzmq
Fix builds with upcoming Cython 3.1

25.1.1

25.1.1 is the first stable release with Python 3.12 wheels.

Changes:

Allow Cython 0.29.35 to build Python 3.12 wheels (no longer require Cython 3)

Bugs fixed:

Fix builds on Solaris by including generated platform.hpp
Cleanup futures in Socket.poll() that are cancelled and never return
Fix builds with -j when numpy is present in the build env

25.1.0

pyzmq 25.1 mostly changes some packaging details of pyzmq, including support for installation from source on Python 3.12 beta 1.

Enhancements:

Include address in error message when bind/connect fail.

Packaging changes:

Fix inclusion of some test files in source distributions.
Add Cython as a build-time dependency in build-system.requires metadata, following current recommendations of the Cython maintainers. We still ship generated Cython sources in source distributions, so it is not a strict dependency for packagers using --no-build-isolation, but pip will install Cython as part of building pyzmq from source. This makes it more likely that past pyzmq releases will install on future Python releases, which often require an update to Cython but not pyzmq itself. For Python 3.12, Cython >=3.0.0b3 is required.

25.0.2

Fix handling of shadow sockets in ZMQStream when the original sockets have been closed. A regression in 25.0.0, seen with jupyter-client 7.

25.0.1

Tiny bugfix release that should only affect users of {class}~.PUBHandler or pyzmq repackagers.

Fix handling of custom Message types in {class}~.PUBHandler
Small lint fixes to satisfy changes in mypy
License files have been renamed to more standard LICENSE.BSD, LICENSE.LESSER to appease some license auto-detect tools.

25.0.0

New:

Added socket_class argument to {func}zmq.Context.socket
Support shadowing sockets with socket objects, not just via address, e.g. zmq.asyncio.Socket(other_socket). Shadowing an object preserves a reference to the original, unlike shadowing via address.
in {mod}zmq.auth, CredentialsProvider callbacks may now be async.
{class}~.zmq.eventloop.zmqstream.ZMQStream callbacks may now be async.
Add {class}zmq.ReconnectStop draft constants.
Add manylinux_2_28 wheels for x86_64 CPython 3.10, 3.11, and PyPy 3.9 (these are in addition to not instead of the manylinux_2014 wheels).

Fixed:

When {class}~.zmq.eventloop.zmqstream.ZMQStream is given an async socket, it now warns and hooks up events correctly with the underlying socket, so the callback gets the received message, instead of sending the callback the incorrect arguments.
Fixed toml parse error in pyproject.toml, when installing from source with very old pip.
Removed expressed dependency on py when running with pypy, which hasn't been used in some time.

Deprecated:

zmq.auth.ioloop.IOLoopAuthenticator is deprecated in favor of {class}zmq.auth.asyncio.AsyncioAuthenticator
As part of migrating toward modern pytest, zmq.tests.BaseZMQTestCase is deprecated and should not be used outside pyzmq.
python setup.py test is deprecated as a way to launch the tests. Just use pytest.

Removed:

Bundled subset of tornado's IOLoop (deprecated since pyzmq 17) is removed, so ZMQStream cannot be used without an actual install of tornado.
Remove support for tornado 4, meaning tornado is always assumed to run on asyncio.

24

24.0.1

Fix several possible resource warnings and deprecation warnings when cleaning up contexts and sockets, especially in pyzmq's own tests and when implicit teardown of objects is happening during process teardown.

24.0.0

pyzmq 24 has two breaking changes (one only on Windows), though they are not likely to affect most users.

Breaking changes:

Due to a libzmq bug causing unavoidable crashes for some users, Windows wheels no longer bundle libzmq with AF_UNIX support. In order to enable AF_UNIX on Windows, pyzmq must be built from source, linking an appropriate build of libzmq (e.g. libzmq-v142). AF_UNIX support will be re-enabled in pyzmq wheels when libzmq published fixed releases.
Using a {class}zmq.Context as a context manager or deleting a context without closing it now calls {meth}zmq.Context.destroy at exit instead of {meth}zmq.Context.term. This will have little effect on most users, but changes what happens when user bugs result in a context being implicitly destroyed while sockets are left open. In almost all cases, this will turn what used to be a hang into a warning. However, there may be some cases where sockets are actively used in threads, which could result in a crash. To use sockets across threads, it is critical to properly and explicitly close your contexts and sockets, which will always avoid this issue.

23.2.1

Improvements:

First release with wheels for Python 3.11 (thanks cibuildwheel!).
linux aarch64 wheels now bundle the same libzmq (4.3.4) as all other builds, thanks to switching to native arm builds on CircleCI.

Fixes:

Some type annotation fixes in devices.

23.2.0

Improvements:

Use zmq.Event enums in parse_monitor_message for nicer reprs

Fixes:

Fix building bundled libzmq with ZMQ_DRAFT_API=1
Fix subclassing zmq.Context with additional arguments in the constructor. Subclasses may now have full control over the signature, rather than purely adding keyword-only arguments
Typos and other small fixes

23.1.0

Fixing some regressions in 23.0:

Fix global name of zmq.EVENT_HANDSHAKE_* constants
Fix constants missing when using import zmq.green as zmq

Compatibility fixes:

{func}zmq.utils.monitor.recv_monitor_message now supports async Sockets.
Fix build with mingw

23.0.0

Changes:

all zmq constants are now available as Python enums (e.g. zmq.SocketType.PULL, zmq.SocketOption.IDENTITY), generated statically from zmq.h instead of at compile-time. This means that checks for the presence of a constant (hasattr(zmq, 'RADIO')) is not a valid check for the presence of a feature. This practice has never been robust, but it may have worked sometimes. Use direct checks via e.g. {func}zmq.has or {func}zmq.zmq_version_info.
A bit more type coverage of Context.term and Context.socket

Compatibility fixes:

Remove all use of deprecated stdlib distutils
Update to Cython 0.29.30 (required for Python 3.11 compatibility)
Compatibility with Python 3.11.0b1

Maintenance changes:

Switch to myst for docs
Deprecate zmq.utils.strtypes, now unused
Updates to autoformatting, linting
New wheels for PyPy 3.9
Manylinux wheels for CPython 3.10 are based on manylinux2014

22.3.0

Fixes:

Fix strlcpy compilation issues on alpine, freebsd. Adds new build-time dependency on packaging.
In event-loop integration: warn instead of raise when triggering callback on a socket whose context has been closed.
Bundled libzmq in wheels backport a patch to avoid crashes due to inappropriate closing of libsodium's random generator when using CurveZMQ.

Changes:

New ResourceWarnings when contexts and sockets are closed by garbage collection, which can be a source of hangs and leaks (matches open files)

22.2.1

Fix bundling of wepoll on Windows.

22.2.0

New features:

IPC support on Windows: where available (64bit Windows wheels and bundled libzmq when compiling from source, via wepoll), IPC should work on appropriate Windows versions.
Nicer reprs of contexts and sockets
Memory allocated by recv(copy=False) is no longer read-only
asyncio: Always reference current loop instead of attaching to the current loop at instantiation time. This fixes e.g. contexts and/or sockets instantiated prior to a call to asyncio.run.
ssh: $PYZMQ_PARAMIKO_HOST_KEY_POLICY can be used to set the missing host key policy, e.g. AutoAdd.

Fixes:

Fix memory corruption in gevent integration
Fix memoryview(zmq.Frame) with cffi backend
Fix threadsafety issue when closing sockets

Changes:

pypy Windows wheels are 64b-only, following an update in cibuildwheel 2.0
deprecate zmq.utils.jsonapi and remove support for non-stdlib json implementations in send/recv_json. Custom serialization methods should be used instead.

22.1.0

New features:

asyncio: experimental support for Proactor eventloop if tornado 6.1 is available by running a selector in a background thread.

Fixes:

Windows: fix type of socket.FD option in win-amd64
asyncio: Cancel timers when using HWM with async Sockets

Other changes:

Windows: update bundled libzmq dll URLs for Windows. Windows wheels no longer include concrt140.dll.
adopt pre-commit for formatting, linting

22.0.3

Fix fork-safety bug in garbage collection thread (regression in 20.0) when using subprocesses.
Start uploading universal wheels for ARM Macs.

22.0.2

Add workaround for bug in DLL loading for Windows wheels with conda Python >= 3.8

22.0.1

Fix type of Frame.bytes for non-copying recvs with CFFI backend (regression in 21.0)
Add manylinux wheels for pypy

22.0.0

This is a major release due to changes in wheels and building on Windows. Code changes from 21.0 are minimal.

Some typing fixes
Bump bundled libzmq to 4.3.4
Strip unused symbols in manylinux wheels, resulting in dramatically smaller binaries. This matches behavior in v20 and earlier.
Windows CPython wheels bundle public libzmq binary builds, instead of building libzmq as a Python Extension. This means they include libsodium for the first time.
Our own implementation of bundling libzmq into pyzmq on Windows is removed, instead relying on delvewheel (or installations putting dlls on %PATH%) to bundle dependency dlls.
The (new in 21.0) Windows wheels for PyPy likely require the Windows vcredist package. This may have always been the case, but the delvewheel approach doesn't seem to work.
Windows + PyPy is now the only remaining case where a wheel has libzmq built as an Extension. All other builds ship libzmq built using its own tooling, which should result in better, more stable builds.

21.0.2

Fix wheels on macOS older than 10.15 (sets MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET to 10.9, matching wheel ABI tag).

21.0.1

pyzmq-21.0.1 only changes CI configuration for Windows wheels (built with VS2017 instead of VS2019), fixing compatibility with some older Windows on all Pythons and removing requirement of VC++ redistributable package on latest Windows and Python < 3.8.

There still appears to be a compatibility issue with Windows 7 that will be fixed ASAP. Until then, you can pin pip install pyzmq<21.

There are no changes from 21.0.0 for other platforms.

21.0

pyzmq 21 is a major version bump because of dropped support for old Pythons and some changes in packaging. CPython users should not face major compatibility issues if installation works at all :) PyPy users may see issues with the new implementation of send/recv. If you do, please report them!

The big changes are:

drop support for Python 3.5. Python >= 3.6 is required
mypy type stubs, which should improve static analysis of pyzmq, especially for dynamically defined attributes such as zmq constants. These are new! Let us know if you find any issues.
support for zero-copy and sending bufferables with cffi backend. This is experimental! Please report issues.
More wheels!
- linux-aarch64 on Python 3.7-3.9
- wheels for pypy36, 37 on Linux and Windows (previously just mac)

We've totally redone the wheel-building setup, so let us know if you start seeing installation issues!

Packaging updates:

Require Python >= 3.6, required for good type annotation support
Wheels for macOS no longer build libzmq as a Python Extension, instead 'real' libzmq is built and linked to libsodium, bundled with delocate. This matches the longstanding behavior of Linux wheels, and should result in better performance.
Add manylinux wheels for linux-aarch64. These bundle an older version of libzmq than the rest.
Build wheels for python3.8, 3.9 with manylinux2010 instead of manylinux1. Wheels for older Pythons will still be built on manylinux1.
rework cffi backend in setup.py
All wheels are built on GitHub Actions (most with cibuildwheel) instead of Min's laptop (finally!).

New features:

zero-copy support in CFFI backend (send(copy=False) now does something).
Support sending any buffer-interface-providing objects in CFFI backend.

Bugs fixed:

Errors during teardown of asyncio Sockets
Missing MSVCP140.dll in Python 3.9 wheels on Windows, causing vcruntime-redist package to be required to use the Python 3.9 wheels for pyzmq 20.0

20.0

20.0 is a major version bump because of dropped support for old Pythons and some changes in packaging, but there are only small changes for users with relatively recent versions of Python.

Packaging updates:

Update bundled libzmq to 4.3.3
Drop support for Python < 3.5 (all versions of Python < 3.6 are EOL at time of release)
Require setuptools to build from source
Require Cython 0.29 to build from version control (sdists still ship .c files, so will never need Cython)
Respect $PKG_CONFIG env for finding libzmq when building from source

New features:

{meth}.Socket.bind and {meth}.Socket.connect can now be used as context managers.

Fixes:

Better error when libzmq is bundled and fails to be loaded.
Hold GIL while calling zmq_curve_ functions, which may fix apparent threadsafety issues.

Remove delayed import of json in send/recv_json
Add {meth}.Authenticator.configure_curve_callback
Various build fixes
sdist sources generated with Cython 0.28.3
Stop building wheels for Python 3.4, start building wheels for Python 3.7

17.0.0

Add {meth}zmq.Socket.send_serialized and {meth}zmq.Socket.recv_serialized for sending/receiving messages with custom serialization.
Add {attr}zmq.Socket.copy_threshold and {const}zmq.COPY_THRESHOLD. Messages smaller than this are always copied, regardless of copy=False, to avoid overhead of zero-copy bookkeeping on small messages.
Added visible deprecation warnings to bundled tornado IOLoop. Tornado eventloop integration shouldn't be used without a proper tornado install since pyzmq 14.
Allow pyzmq asyncio/tornado integration to run without installing zmq_poll implementation. The following methods and classes are deprecated and no longer required:
- zmq.eventloop.ioloop.install
- zmq.eventloop.ioloop.IOLoop
- zmq.asyncio.install
- zmq.asyncio.ZMQEventLoop
Set RPATH correctly when building on macOS.
Compatibility fixes with tornado 5.0.dev (may not be quite enough for 5.0 final, which is not yet released as of pyzmq 17).

Updates to setup.py for Cython 0.25 compatibility
Various asyncio/future fixes:
- support raw sockets in pollers
- allow cancelling async sends
Fix IOLoop.current() in {mod}zmq.green

15.4

Load bundled libzmq extension with import rather than CDLL, which should fix some manifest issues in certain cases on Windows.
Avoid installing asyncio sources on Python 2, which confuses some tools that run python -m compileall, which reports errors on the Python 3-only files.
Bundle msvcp.dll in Windows wheels on CPython 3.5, which should fix wheel compatibility systems without Visual C++ 2015 redistributable.

FIX: various fixes in new async sockets
Introduce {mod}zmq.decorators API for decorating functions to create sockets or contexts
Add {meth}zmq.Socket.subscribe and {meth}zmq.Socket.unsubscribe methods to sockets, so that assignment is no longer needed for subscribing. Verbs should be methods! Assignment is still supported for backward-compatibility.

trigger bundled libzmq if system libzmq is found to be < 3. System libzmq 2 can be forced by explicitly requesting --zmq=/prefix/.

14.7.0

Changes:

Update bundled libzmq to 4.1.2.
Following the lead of Python 3.5, interrupted system calls will be retried.

Fixes for CFFI backend on Python 3 + support for PyPy 3.
Verify types of all frames in {meth}~zmq.Socket.send_multipart before sending, to avoid partial messages.
Fix build on Windows when both debug and release versions of libzmq are found.
Windows build fixes for Python 3.5.

14.6.0

Changes:

improvements in {meth}zmq.Socket.bind_to_random_port:
- use system to allocate ports by default
- catch EACCES on Windows
include libsodium when building bundled libzmq on Windows (includes wheels on PyPI)
pyzmq no longer bundles external libzmq when making a bdist. You can use delocate to do this.

Bugfixes:

add missing ndim on memoryviews of Frames
allow {func}copy.copy and {func}copy.deepcopy on Sockets, Contexts

14.5.0

Changes:

use pickle.DEFAULT_PROTOCOL by default in send_pickle
with the release of pip-6, OS X wheels are only marked as 10.6-intel, indicating that they should be installable on any newer or single-arch Python.
raise SSHException on failed check of host key

Bugfixes:

fix method name in utils.wi32.allow_interrupt
fork-related fixes in garbage collection thread
add missing import in zmq.__init__, causing failure to import in some circumstances

14.4.1

Bugfixes for 14.4

SyntaxError on Python 2.6 in zmq.ssh
Handle possible bug in garbage collection after fork

14.4.0

New features:

Experimental support for libzmq-4.1.0 rc (new constants, plus {func}zmq.has).
Update bundled libzmq to 4.0.5
Update bundled libsodium to 1.0.0
Fixes for SSH dialogs when using {mod}zmq.ssh.tunnel to create tunnels

Bugs fixed:

Bundled libzmq should not trigger recompilation after install on PyPy

14.3.1

pyzmq-14.3.1 is the last version to include bdists for Python 3.3

Minor bugfixes to pyzmq 14.3:

Fixes to building bundled libzmq on OS X < 10.9
Fixes to import-failure warnings on Python 3.4
Fixes to tests
Pull upstream fixes to zmq.ssh for ssh multiplexing

14.3.0

PyZMQ no longer calls {meth}.Socket.close or {meth}.Context.term during process cleanup. Changes to garbage collection in Python 3.4 make this impossible to do sensibly.
{meth}.ZMQStream.close closes its socket immediately, rather than scheduling a timeout.
Raise the original ImportError when importing zmq fails. Should be more informative than no module cffi....

Users of Python 3.4 should not use pyzmq \< 14.3, due to changes in garbage collection.

14.2.0

New Stuff

Raise new ZMQVersionError when a requested method is not supported by the linked libzmq. For backward compatibility, this subclasses NotImplementedError.

Bugs Fixed

Memory leak introduced in pyzmq-14.0 in zero copy.
OverflowError on 32 bit systems in zero copy.

14.1.0

Security

The headline features for 14.1 are adding better support for libzmq's security features.

When libzmq is bundled as a Python extension (e.g. wheels, eggs), libsodium is also bundled (excluding Windows), ensuring that libzmq security is available to users who install from wheels
New {mod}zmq.auth, implementing zeromq's ZAP authentication, modeled on czmq zauth. For more information, see the examples.

Other New Stuff

Add PYZMQ_BACKEND for enabling use of backends outside the pyzmq codebase.
Add {attr}~.Context.underlying property and {meth}~.Context.shadow method to Context and Socket, for handing off sockets and contexts. between pyzmq and other bindings (mainly pyczmq).
Add TOS, ROUTER_HANDOVER, and IPC_FILTER constants from libzmq-4.1-dev.
Add Context option support in the CFFI backend.
Various small unicode and build fixes, as always.
{meth}~.Socket.send_json and {meth}~.Socket.recv_json pass any extra kwargs to json.dumps/loads.

Deprecations

Socket.socket_type is deprecated, in favor of Socket.type, which has been available since 2.1.

14.0.1

Bugfix release

Update bundled libzmq to current (4.0.3).
Fix bug in {meth}.Context.destroy with no open sockets.
Threadsafety fixes in the garbage collector.
Python 3 fixes in {mod}zmq.ssh.tunnel.

14.0.0

Update bundled libzmq to current (4.0.1).
Backends are now implemented in zmq.backend instead of zmq.core. This has no effect on public APIs.
Various build improvements for Cython and CFFI backends (PyPy compiles at build time).
Various GIL-related performance improvements - the GIL is no longer touched from a zmq IO thread.
Adding a constant should now be a bit easier - only zmq/sugar/constant_names should need updating, all other constant-related files should be automatically updated by setup.py constants.
add support for latest libzmq-4.0.1 (includes ZMQ_CURVE security and socket event monitoring).

New stuff

{meth}.Socket.monitor
{meth}.Socket.get_monitor_socket
{func}zmq.curve_keypair
{mod}zmq.utils.monitor
{mod}zmq.utils.z85

13.1.0

The main new feature is improved tornado 3 compatibility. PyZMQ ships a 'minitornado' submodule, which contains a small subset of tornado 3.0.1, in order to get the IOLoop base class. zmq.eventloop.ioloop.IOLoop is now a simple subclass, and if the system tornado is ≥ 3.0, then the zmq IOLoop is a proper registered subclass of the tornado one itself, and minitornado is entirely unused.

13.0.2

Bugfix release!

A few things were broken in 13.0.0, so this is a quick bugfix release.

FIXED EAGAIN was unconditionally turned into KeyboardInterrupt
FIXED we used totally deprecated ctypes_configure to generate constants in CFFI backend
FIXED memory leak in CFFI backend for PyPy
FIXED typo prevented IPC_PATH_MAX_LEN from ever being defined
FIXED various build fixes - linking with librt, Cython compatibility, etc.

13.0.1

defunct bugfix. We do not speak of this...

13.0.0

PyZMQ now officially targets libzmq-3 (3.2.2), 0MQ ≥ 2.1.4 is still supported for the indefinite future, but 3.x is recommended. PyZMQ has detached from libzmq versioning, and will just follow its own regular versioning scheme from now on. PyZMQ bdists will include whatever is the latest stable libzmq release (3.2.2 for pyzmq-13.0).

set/get methods are exposed via get/setattr on all Context, Socket, and Frame classes.
This means that subclasses of these classes that require extra attributes
**must declare these attributes at the class level**.

Experiments Removed

The Threadsafe ZMQStream experiment in 2.2.0.1 was deemed inappropriate and not useful, and has been removed.
The zmq.web experiment has been removed, to be developed as a standalone project.

New Stuff

Support for PyPy via CFFI backend (requires py, ctypes-configure, and cffi).
Add support for new APIs in libzmq-3
- {meth}.Socket.disconnect
- {meth}.Socket.unbind
- {meth}.Context.set
- {meth}.Context.get
- {meth}.Frame.set
- {meth}.Frame.get
- {func}zmq.proxy
- {class}zmq.devices.Proxy
- Exceptions for common zmq errnos: {class}zmq.Again, {class}zmq.ContextTerminated (subclass {class}~.ZMQError, so fully backward-compatible).
Setting and getting {attr}.Socket.hwm sets or gets both SNDHWM/RCVHWM for libzmq-3.
Implementation splits core Cython bindings from pure-Python subclasses with sugar methods (send/recv_multipart). This should facilitate non-Cython backends and PyPy support [spoiler: it did!].

Bugs Fixed

Unicode fixes in log and monitored queue
MinGW, ppc, cross-compilation, and HP-UX build fixes
{mod}zmq.green should be complete - devices and tornado eventloop both work in gevent contexts.

2.2.0.1

This is a tech-preview release, to try out some new features. It is expected to be short-lived, as there are likely to be issues to iron out, particularly with the new pip-install support.

Experimental New Stuff

These features are marked 'experimental', which means that their APIs are not set in stone, and may be removed or changed in incompatible ways in later releases.

Threadsafe ZMQStream

With the IOLoop inherited from tornado, there is exactly one method that is threadsafe: {meth}~.tornado.ioloop.IOLoop.add_callback. With this release, we are trying an experimental option to pass all IOLoop calls via this method, so that ZMQStreams can be used from one thread while the IOLoop runs in another. To try out a threadsafe stream:

stream = ZMQStream(socket, threadsafe=True)

pip install pyzmq

PyZMQ should now be pip installable, even on systems without libzmq. In these cases, when pyzmq fails to find an appropriate libzmq to link against, it will try to build libzmq as a Python extension. This work is derived from pyzmq_static.

To this end, PyZMQ source distributions include the sources for libzmq (2.2.0) and libuuid (2.21), both used under the LGPL.

zmq.green

The excellent gevent_zeromq socket subclass which provides gevent compatibility has been merged as {mod}zmq.green.

{mod}`zmq.green`

Bugs Fixed

TIMEO sockopts are properly included for libzmq-2.2.0
avoid garbage collection of sockets after fork (would cause assert (mailbox.cpp:79)).

2.2.0

Some effort has gone into refining the pyzmq API in this release to make it a model for other language bindings. This is principally made in a few renames of objects and methods, all of which leave the old name for backwards compatibility.

As of this release, all code outside `zmq.core` is BSD licensed (where
possible), to allow more permissive use of less-critical code and utilities.

Name Changes

The Message class has been renamed to {class}~.Frame, to better match other zmq bindings. The old Message name remains for backwards-compatibility. Wherever pyzmq docs say "Message", they should refer to a complete zmq atom of communication (one or more Frames, connected by ZMQ_SNDMORE). Please report any remaining instances of Message==MessagePart with an Issue (or better yet a Pull Request).
All foo_unicode methods are now called foo_string (_unicode remains for backwards compatibility). This is not only for cross-language consistency, but it makes more sense in Python 3, where native strings are unicode, and the _unicode suffix was wedded too much to Python 2.

Other Changes and Removals

prefix removed as an unused keyword argument from {meth}~.zmq.Socket.send_multipart.
ZMQStream {meth}~.ZMQStream.send default has been changed to copy=True, so it matches Socket {meth}~.zmq.Socket.send.
ZMQStream {meth}~.ZMQStream.on_err is deprecated, because it never did anything.
Python 2.5 compatibility has been dropped, and some code has been cleaned up to reflect no-longer-needed hacks.
Some Cython files in zmq.core have been split, to reduce the amount of Cython-compiled code. Much of the body of these files were pure Python, and thus did not benefit from the increased compile time. This change also aims to ease maintaining feature parity in other projects, such as pyzmq-ctypes.

New Stuff

{class}~.zmq.Context objects can now set default options when they create a socket. These are set and accessed as attributes to the context. Socket options that do not apply to a socket (e.g. SUBSCRIBE on non-SUB sockets) will simply be ignored.
{meth}~.ZMQStream.on_recv_stream has been added, which adds the stream itself as a second argument to the callback, making it easier to use a single callback on multiple streams.
A Frame.more boolean attribute has been added to the {class}~.Frame (née Message) class, so that frames can be identified as terminal without extra queries of Socket.rcvmore.

Experimental New Stuff

These features are marked 'experimental', which means that their APIs are not set in stone, and may be removed or changed in incompatible ways in later releases.

zmq.web added for load-balancing requests in a tornado webapp with zeromq.

2.1.11

remove support for LABEL prefixes. A major feature of libzmq-3.0, the LABEL prefix, has been removed from libzmq, prior to the first stable libzmq 3.x release.
- The prefix argument to {meth}~.zmq.Socket.send_multipart remains, but it continue to behave in exactly the same way as it always has on 2.1.x, simply prepending message parts.
- {meth}~.zmq.Socket.recv_multipart will always return a list, because prefixes are once again indistinguishable from regular message parts.
add {meth}.zmq.Socket.poll method, for simple polling of events on a single socket.
no longer require monkeypatching tornado IOLoop. The ioloop.ZMQPoller class is a poller implementation that matches tornado's expectations, and pyzmq sockets can be used with any tornado application just by specifying the use of this poller. The pyzmq IOLoop implementation now only trivially differs from tornado's.

It is still recommended to use ioloop.install(), which sets both the zmq and tornado global IOLoop instances to the same object, but it is no longer necessary.
```
The most important part of this change is that the `IOLoop.READ/WRITE/ERROR`
constants now match tornado's, rather than being mapped directly to the zmq
`POLLIN/OUT/ERR`. So applications that used the low-level `IOLoop.add_handler`
code with `POLLIN/OUT/ERR` directly (used to work, but was incorrect), rather than
using the IOLoop class constants will no longer work. Fixing these to use the IOLoop
constants should be insensitive to the actual value of the constants.
```

2.1.10

Add support for libzmq-3.0 LABEL prefixes:
```
This feature has been removed from libzmq, and thus removed from future pyzmq
as well.
```
- send a message with label-prefix with:
```
send_multipart([b"msg", b"parts"], prefix=[b"label", b"prefix"])
```
- {meth}zmq.Socket.recv_multipart returns a tuple of (prefix,msg) if a label prefix is detected
- ZMQStreams and devices also respect the LABEL prefix
add czmq-style close&term as {meth}zmq.Context.destroy, so that {meth}zmq.Context.term remains threadsafe and 1:1 with libzmq.
{meth}zmq.Socket.close takes optional linger option, for setting linger prior to closing.
add {func}~.zmq_version_info and {func}~.pyzmq_version_info for getting libzmq and pyzmq versions as tuples of numbers. This helps with the fact that version string comparison breaks down once versions get into double-digits.
ioloop changes merged from upstream Tornado 2.1

2.1.9

added zmq.ssh tools for tunneling socket connections, copied from IPython
Expanded sockopt support to cover changes in libzmq-4.0 dev.
Fixed an issue that prevented {exc}KeyboardInterrupt from being catchable.
Added attribute-access for set/getsockopt. Setting/Getting attributes of {class}~.zmq.Sockets with the names of socket options is mapped to calls of set/getsockopt.

s.hwm = 10
s.identity = b"whoda"
s.linger
# -1

Terminating a {class}~.zmq.Context closes the sockets it created, matching the behavior in czmq.
{class}.ThreadDevices use {meth}.zmq.Context.instance to create sockets, so they can use inproc connections to sockets in other threads.
fixed units error on {func}zmq.select, where the poll timeout was 1000 times longer than expected.
Add missing DEALER/ROUTER socket type names (currently aliases, to be replacements for XREP/XREQ).
base libzmq dependency raised to 2.1.4 (first stable release) from 2.1.0.

2.1.7.1

bdist for 64b Windows only. This fixed a type mismatch on the ZMQ_FD sockopt that only affected that platform.

2.1.7

Added experimental support for libzmq-3.0 API
Add zmq.eventloop.ioloop.install for using pyzmq's IOLoop in a tornado application.

2.1.4

First version with binary distribution support
Added {meth}zmq.Context.instance() method for using a single Context throughout an application without passing references around.
