Summary     : Network Framer Library
Description :
The Framer library is a network communications library, built on top of
asyncio, for managing these units, which it calls frames. The Framer
library is built as an asyncio protocol which also happens to implement
the behavior of an asyncio transport. The protocol object can have
framers set on both directions of the communication; these framers
translate between the stream interface provided by TCP and the sequence
of frames desired by the application.

A framer is simply an object implementing a couple of methods which
implement the transformation from a stream to a frame and from a frame
to a sequence of bytes to transmit on the stream. These framers can
range from rather trivial--as in a text-oriented protocol like SMTP--all
the way to a complex binary data transmission protocol such as some
forms of RPC.
