Introduction
------------
Pika is a pure-Python implementation of the AMQP 0-9-1 protocol including
RabbitMQ's extensions.
- Supports Python 3.7+ (CPython and PyPy; versions are listed on
[PyPI]). Pika 1.1.0 was the last release
that supported Python 2.7.
- Since threads aren't appropriate to every situation, it doesn't require
threads. Pika core takes care not to forbid them, either. The same goes
for
greenlets, callbacks, continuations, and generators. An instance of
Pika's
built-in connection adapters isn't thread-safe, however.
- People may be using direct sockets, plain old ``select()``, or any of the
wide variety of ways of getting network events to and from a Python
application. Pika tries to stay compatible with all of these, and to make
adapting it to a new environment as simple as possible.

Here is the most simple example of use, sending a message with the
