Description: ========
         gevent
        ========
        
        gevent_ is a coroutine-based Python networking library.
        
        Features include:
        
        * Fast event loop based on libev_.
        * Lightweight execution units based on greenlet_.
        * Familiar API that re-uses concepts from the Python standard library.
        * Cooperative sockets with SSL support.
        * DNS queries performed through c-ares_ or a threadpool.
        * Ability to use standard library and 3rd party modules written for standard blocking sockets
        
        gevent_ is `inspired by eventlet`_ but features 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`_.

        Get gevent
        ==========
        
        Gevent runs on Python >= 2.6, Python >= 3.3, or PyPy >= 4.0.1
        (but not PyPy3) (*Note*: PyPy is not supported in Windows). On all
        platforms, installing setuptools is recommended (this is done
        automatically if working in a virtual environment).
        
        You can use pip to install gevent::
        
            pip install gevent
        
        .. tip:: You need Pip 8.0 or later to install the binary wheels for 1.1.
        
        Download the latest release from `Python Package Index`_ or clone `the repository`_.
        
        Read the documentation online at http://www.gevent.org. Additional
        installation information can be found `here <http://www.gevent.org/intro.html#installation-and-requirements>`_.

        Development
        ===========
        
        To install the latest development version::
        
          pip install setuptools 'cython>=0.23.4' git+git://github.com/gevent/gevent.git#egg=gevent
        
        To hack on gevent (using a virtualenv)::
        
          $ git clone https://github.com/gevent/gevent.git
          $ cd gevent
          $ virtualenv env
          $ source env/bin/activate
          (env) $ pip install -r dev-requirements.txt
        
        .. note::
        
           You must have Cython, a C compiler, and the Python
           development headers installed to build a checkout. Installing CFFI
           on CPython (it's standard on PyPy) allows building the CFFI backend
           for testing, and tox is the command used to test multiple versions
           of Python.
        
        Running Tests
        -------------
        
        There are a few different ways to run the tests. To simply run the
        tests on one version of Python during development, try this::
        
          python setup.py develop
          cd greentest
          PYTHONPATH=.. python testrunner.py --config ../known_failures.py
        
        Before submitting a pull request, it's a good idea to run the tests
        across all supported versions of Python, and to check the code quality
        using pep8 and pyflakes. This is what is done on Travis CI. Locally it
        can be done using tox::
        
          pip install tox
          tox
        
        
        The testrunner accepts a ``--coverage`` argument to enable code
        coverage metrics through the `coverage.py`_ package. That would go
        something like this::
        
          cd greentest
          PYTHONPATH=.. python testrunner.py --config ../known_failures.py --coverage
          coverage combine
          coverage html -i
          <open htmlcov/index.html>
        
        Builds on Travis CI automatically submit updates to `coveralls.io`_.

           :target: https://coveralls.io/github/gevent/gevent?branch=master
        
        Continuous integration
        ----------------------
        
        A test suite is run for every push and pull request submitted. Travis
        CI is used to test on Linux, and `AppVeyor`_ runs the builds on Windows.
