This reverts commit de35f64. Unfortunately, the mprpc package fails to install with Python 3.11.x most probably because of the changes in Cython. × Building wheel for mprpc (pyproject.toml) did not run successfully. │ exit code: 1 [...] mprpc/client.c:181:12: fatal error: longintrepr.h: No such file or directory 181 | #include "longintrepr.h" | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. The solution would be to update the package, but it is no longer developed. The GitHub repository for mprpc project (https://github.com/studio-ousia/mprpc) got archived by the owner on Dec 27, 2022: NOTICE: This library is not actively maintained. Please consider using other alternatives such as gRPC. There are other Python packages for MessagePack RPC than msgpack-rpc-python and mprpc, but they have their own problems. - gRPC is heavily into *.proto files as universal cross-language interface definition, and would require rewriting rb_call - aiorpc is under developed (4 - Beta), and should not to be considered to have a stable API; additionally, the README says that benchmarks show that it slightly underperforms official MessagePack RPC (0.7x slower) - rpc-msgpack claims to be updated version for MessagePack RPC for Python, but its PyPI page (https://pypi.org/project/rpc-msgpack/) is very sparse on details - tinyrpc now supports MessagePack (tinyprc[msgpack]), but it was originally JSON-RPC and ZMQ library; it looks like most actively developed beside gRPC - txmsgpackrpc repository was archived on May 31, 2022 - msgpack-rpc-python (MessagePack RPC for Python) got its last release on Mar 14, 2018 - but as pure Python package has no problems being installed with Python 3.11 - lotrpc is in 3 - Alpha, last release from Jan 23, 2020; repo archived on Aug 5, 2023 - spyne is transport and architecture agnostic rpc library; last release 2022 but I'm not sure if it is a good match for rb_call: no support for plan RPC It looks like best replacement would be tinyrpc, assuming that is performance is not worse than msgpack-rpc-python... but it would require some changes (though not as much as switching to gRPC would).
We are back to using msgpack-rpc-python in place of mprpc.
