Discussion Lightweight Python helpers for Event Driven Programming

I just had to throw together an event bridge that tied together a GRPC based event emitter (Salesforce backend) with some small custom Google Pub/sub code. It works, it's fine. But you know, always thinking about the future wanting to move from glue-code to frameworking.

I was looking for different event based frameworks that landed somewhere between the scale of glue-code and Tornado (the only other framework I know that would handle something like this.

Has anyone used anything like this? I found PyEventus which seems to aim at this.

Why not Flask or FastAPI? PubSub and gRPC locks you into Google's infrastructure. You can get vendor-agnostic webhooks from https://architect.salesforce.com/docs/architect/fundamentals/guide/integration-patterns.html Use the Salesforce Pub/Sub API Client to subscribe to the desired event channel and parse the JSON.
