+############
+API Overview
+############
+
+=========================
+An overview of the model
+=========================
+
+Messages are transferred between connected peers over 'links'. At the
+sending peer the link is called a sender. At the receiving peer it is
+a receiver. Messages are sent by senders and receiver by receivers.
+
+Links are established over sessions. Sessions are established over
+connections. Connections are (generally) established between two
+uniquely identified containers. Though a connection can have multiple
+sessions, often this is not needed. The container API allows you to
+ignore sessions unless you actually require them.
+
+The sending of a message over a link is called a delivery. The message
+is the content sent, including all meta-data such as headers and
+annotations. The delivery is the protocol exchange associated with the
+transfer of that content.
+
+To indicate that a delivery is complete, either the sender or the
+receiver 'settles' it. When the other side learns that it has been
+settled, they will no longer communicate about that delivery. The
+receiver can also indicate whether they accept or reject the message.
+
+Three different delivery levels or 'guarantees' can be achieved.
+
+For at-most-once, the sender settles the message as soon as it sends
+it. If the connection is lost before the message is received by the
+receiver, the message will not be delivered.
+
+For at-least-once, the receiver accepts and settles the message on
+receipt. If the connection is lost before the sender is informed of
+the settlement, then the delivery is considered in-doubt and should be
+retried. This will ensure it eventually gets delivered (provided of
+course the connection and link can be reestablished). It may mean that
+it is delivered multiple times though.
+
+Finally, for exactly-once, the receiver accepts the message but
+doesn't settle it. The sender settles once it is aware that the
+receiver accepted it. In this way the receiver retains knowledge of an
+accepted message until it is sure the sender knows it has been
+accepted. If the connection is lost before settlement, the receiver
+informs the sender of all the unsettled deliveries it knows about, and
+from this the sender can deduce which need to be redelivered. The
+sender likewise informs the receiver which deliveries it knows about,
+from which the receiver can deduce which have already been settled.

+########
+Tutorial
+########
+
+============
+Hello World!
+============
+
+Tradition dictates that we start with hello world! However rather than
+simply striving for the shortest program possible, we'll aim for a
+more illustrative example while still restricting the functionality to
+sending and receiving a single message.
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../../../../../examples/python/helloworld.py
+   :lines: 21-
+   :linenos:
+
+You can see the import of :py:class:`~proton.reactor.Container` from ``proton.reactor`` on the
+second line. This is a class that makes programming with proton a
+little easier for the common cases. It includes within it an event
+loop, and programs written using this utility are generally structured
+to react to various events. This reactive style is particularly suited
+to messaging applications.
+
+To be notified of a particular event, you define a class with the
+appropriately name method on it. That method is then called by the
+event loop when the event occurs.
+
+We define a class here, ``HelloWorld``, which handles the key events of
+interest in sending and receiving a message.
+
+The ``on_start()`` method is called when the event loop first
+starts. We handle that by establishing our connection (line 12), a
+sender over which to send the message (line 13) and a receiver over
+which to receive it back again (line 14).
+
+The ``on_sendable()`` method is called when message can be transferred
+over the associated sender link to the remote peer. We send out our
+``Hello World!`` message (line 17), then close the sender (line 18) as
+we only want to send one message. The closing of the sender will
+prevent further calls to ``on_sendable()``.
+
+The ``on_message()`` method is called when a message is
+received. Within that we simply print the body of the message (line
+21) and then close the connection (line 22).
+
+Now that we have defined the logic for handling these events, we
+create an instance of a :py:class:`~proton.reactor.Container`, pass it
+our handler and then enter the event loop by calling
+:py:meth:`~proton.reactor.Container.run()`. At this point control
+passes to the container instance, which will make the appropriate
+callbacks to any defined handlers.
+
+To run the example you will need to have a broker (or similar)
+accepting connections on that url either with a queue (or topic)
+matching the given address or else configured to create such a queue
+(or topic) dynamically. There is a simple broker.py script included
+alongside the examples that can be used for this purpose if
+desired. (It is also written using the API described here, and as such
+gives an example of a slightly more involved application).
+
+====================
+Hello World, Direct!
+====================
+
+Though often used in conjunction with a broker, AMQP does not
+*require* this. It also allows senders and receivers can communicate
+directly if desired.
+
+Let's modify our example to demonstrate this.
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../../../../../examples/python/helloworld_direct.py
+   :lines: 21-
+   :emphasize-lines: 11,21-22,24-25
+   :linenos:
+
+The first difference, on line 11, is that rather than creating a
+receiver on the same connection as our sender, we listen for incoming
+connections by invoking the
+:py:meth:`~proton.reactor.Container.listen()` method on the
+container.
+
+As we only need then to initiate one link, the sender, we can do that
+by passing in a url rather than an existing connection, and the
+connection will also be automatically established for us.
+
+We send the message in response to the ``on_sendable()`` callback and
+print the message out in response to the ``on_message()`` callback
+exactly as before.
+
+However we also handle two new events. We now close the connection
+from the senders side once the message has been accepted (line
+22). The acceptance of the message is an indication of successful
+transfer to the peer. We are notified of that event through the
+``on_accepted()`` callback. Then, once the connection has been closed,
+of which we are notified through the ``on_closed()`` callback, we stop
+accepting incoming connections (line 25) at which point there is no
+work to be done and the event loop exits, and the run() method will
+return.
+
+So now we have our example working without a broker involved!
+
+=============================
+Asynchronous Send and Receive
+=============================
+
+Of course, these ``HelloWorld!`` examples are very artificial,
+communicating as they do over a network connection but with the same
+process. A more realistic example involves communication between
+separate processes (which could indeed be running on completely
+separate machines).
+
+Let's separate the sender from the receiver, and let's transfer more than
+a single message between them.
+
+We'll start with a simple sender.
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../../../../../examples/python/simple_send.py
+   :lines: 21-
+   :linenos:
+
+As with the previous example, we define the application logic in a
+class that handles various events. As before, we use the
+``on_start()`` event to establish our sender link over which we will
+transfer messages and the ``on_sendable()`` event to know when we can
+transfer our messages.
+
+Because we are transferring more than one message, we need to keep
+track of how many we have sent. We'll use a ``sent`` member variable
+for that. The ``total`` member variable will hold the number of
+messages we want to send.
+
+AMQP defines a credit-based flow control mechanism. Flow control
+allows the receiver to control how many messages it is prepared to
+receive at a given time and thus prevents any component being
+overwhelmed by the number of messages it is sent.
+
+In the ``on_sendable()`` callback, we check that our sender has credit
+before sending messages. We also check that we haven't already sent
+the required number of messages.
+
+The ``send()`` call on line 20 is of course asynchronous. When it
+returns the message has not yet actually been transferred across the
+network to the receiver. By handling the ``on_accepted()`` event, we
+can get notified when the receiver has received and accepted the
+message. In our example we use this event to track the confirmation of
+the messages we have sent. We only close the connection and exit when
+the receiver has received all the messages we wanted to send.
+
+If we are disconnected after a message is sent and before it has been
+confirmed by the receiver, it is said to be ``in doubt``. We don't
+know whether or not it was received. In this example, we will handle
+that by resending any in-doubt messages. This is known as an
+'at-least-once' guarantee, since each message should eventually be
+received at least once, though a given message may be received more
+than once (i.e. duplicates are possible). In the ``on_disconnected()``
+callback, we reset the sent count to reflect only those that have been
+confirmed. The library will automatically try to reconnect for us, and
+when our sender is sendable again, we can restart from the point we
+know the receiver got to.
+
+Now let's look at the corresponding receiver:
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../../../../../examples/python/simple_recv.py
+   :lines: 21-
+   :linenos:
+
+Here we handle the ``on_start()`` by creating our receiver, much like
+we did for the sender. We also handle the ``on_message()`` event for
+received messages and print the message out as in the ``Hello World!``
+examples. However we add some logic to allow the receiver to wait for
+a given number of messages, then to close the connection and exit. We
+also add some logic to check for and ignore duplicates, using a simple
+sequential id scheme.
+
+Again, though sending between these two examples requires some sort of
+intermediary process (e.g. a broker), AMQP allows us to send messages
+directly between two processes without this if we so wish. In that
+case one or other of the processes needs to accept incoming socket
+connections. Let's create a modified version of the receiving example
+that does this:
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../../../../../examples/python/direct_recv.py
+   :lines: 21-
+   :emphasize-lines: 13,25
+   :linenos:
+
+There are only two differences here. On line 13, instead of initiating
+a link (and implicitly a connection), we listen for incoming
+connections. On line 25, when we have received all the expected
+messages, we then stop listening for incoming connections by closing
+the acceptor object.
+
+You can use the original send example now to send to this receiver
+directly. (Note: you will need to stop any broker that is listening on
+the 5672 port, or else change the port used by specifying a different
+address to each example via the -a command line switch).
+
+We could equally well modify the original sender to allow the original
+receiver to connect to it. Again that just requires two modifications:
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../../../../../examples/python/direct_send.py
+   :lines: 21-
+   :emphasize-lines: 15,28
+   :linenos:
+
+As with the modified receiver, instead of initiating establishment of
+a link, we listen for incoming connections on line 15 and then on line
+28, when we have received confirmation of all the messages we sent, we
+can close the acceptor in order to exit. The symmetry in the
+underlying AMQP that enables this is quite unique and elegant, and in
+reflecting this the proton API provides a flexible toolkit for
+implementing all sorts of interesting intermediaries (the broker.py
+script provided as a simple broker for testing purposes provides an
+example of this).
+
+To try this modified sender, run the original receiver against it.
+
+================
+Request/Response
+================
+
+A common pattern is to send a request message and expect a response
+message in return. AMQP has special support for this pattern. Let's
+have a look at a simple example. We'll start with the 'server',
+i.e. the program that will process the request and send the
+response. Note that we are still using a broker in this example.
+
+Our server will provide a very simple service: it will respond with
+the body of the request converted to uppercase.
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../../../../../examples/python/server.py
+   :lines: 21-
+   :linenos:
+
+The code here is not too different from the simple receiver
+example. When we receive a request however, we look at the
+:py:attr:`~proton.Message.reply_to` address on the
+:py:class:`~proton.Message` and create a sender for that over which to
+send the response. We'll cache the senders incase we get further
+requests with the same reply_to.
+
+Now let's create a simple client to test this service out.
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../../../../../examples/python/client.py
+   :lines: 21-
+   :linenos:
+
+As well as sending requests, we need to be able to get back the
+responses. We create a receiver for that (see line 14), but we don't
+specify an address, we set the dynamic option which tells the broker
+we are connected to to create a temporary address over which we can
+receive our responses.
+
+We need to use the address allocated by the broker as the reply_to
+address of our requests, so we can't send them until the broker has
+confirmed our receiving link has been set up (at which point we will
+have our allocated address). To do that, we add an
+``on_link_opened()`` method to our handler class, and if the link
+associated with event is the receiver, we use that as the trigger to
+send our first request.
+
+Again, we could avoid having any intermediary process here if we
+wished. The following code implementas a server to which the client
+above could connect directly without any need for a broker or similar.
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../../../../../examples/python/server_direct.py
+   :lines: 21-
+   :linenos:
+
+Though this requires some more extensive changes than the simple
+sending and receiving examples, the essence of the program is still
+the same. Here though, rather than the server establishing a link for
+the response, it relies on the link that the client established, since
+that now comes in directly to the server process.
+
+Miscellaneous
+=============
+
+Many brokers offer the ability to consume messages based on a
+'selector' that defines which messages are of interest based on
+particular values of the headers. The following example shows how that
+can be achieved:
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../../../../../examples/python/selected_recv.py
+   :lines: 21-
+   :emphasize-lines: 10
+   :linenos:
+
+When creating the receiver, we specify a Selector object as an
+option. The options argument can take a single object or a
+list. Another option that is sometimes of interest when using a broker
+is the ability to 'browse' the messages on a queue, rather than
+consumig them. This is done in AMQP by specifying a distribution mode
+of 'copy' (instead of 'move' which is the expected default for
+queues). An example of that is shown next:
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../../../../../examples/python/queue_browser.py
+   :lines: 21-
+   :emphasize-lines: 10
