Asynchronous Socket

Question

How do I connect with multiple clients? Once connected with multiple clients how do I receive individual data from each? From what I know I need to use something called "Asyncore". How do I implement this?

Client Class

import socket
class Client():
    def __init__(self):
        self.host = 'localhost'
        self.port = 5000

        self.s = socket.socket()
        self.s.connect((self.host, self.port))
        self.s.send(str.encode(input("What is your name ")))

x = Client()

Host Class

import socket
class Host():
    def __init__(self):
        self.host = 'localhost'
        self.port = 5000

        self.s = socket.socket()
        self.s.bind((self.host, self.port))
        self.s.listen(5)
        self.c, self.addr = self.s.accept()
        print("User from " + str(self.addr) + " has connected")
        while True:
            data = self.c.recv(1024)
            if not data:
                break

            print(str(self.addr) +" name is " + data.decode("utf-8"))
            #c.send(str.encode(whatever))
        self.c.close()

x = Host()

Are you looking for this one? asyncore

Here is the link where you can find all the info related to async socket handler
