I'm using Channels v2. I want to integrate long-polling into my project.
The only consumer I see in the documentation for http long polling is the AsyncHttpConsumer <https://channels.readthedocs.io/en/2.x/topics/consumers.html#asynchttpconsumer> . The code I need to run in my handle function is not asynchronous. It connects to another device on the network using a library that is not asynchronous. From what I understand, this will cause the event loop to block, which is bad. Client requests will be handled one at a time. Can I run my handler synchronously, in a thread somehow? I asked the same question here: https://stackoverflow.com/q/66055657/6423456, but so far got no responses. I quickly wrote a subclass of SyncConsumer that works, but: 1. I can't imagine that everyone is doing this - there must be an easier way 2. The disconnect() method is not called until after the handle() method is done running, so from what I can tell, there's no way to interrupt the handle method early (unless the handle method kicks off its own thread or something) I posted the code for the subclass of SyncConsumer as an answer to my stackoverflow question, but I'm hoping there's a better, easier way to do this. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
