Re: [paho-dev] paho python websocket support

[Ian Craggs <icraggs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Milan,

thanks, the functionality definitely sounds useful.   However I see that 
websocket-client is LGPL, so this could be an obstacle to us adopting 
this particular code.  I have implemented the server side of the 
websockets protocol in this Python module: 
https://git.eclipse.org/c/paho/org.eclipse.paho.mqtt.testing.git/tree/interoperability/mqtt/broker/start.py, 
so that approach may be an option.

I'll a further reply to Roger, the author of the Python client, when 
he's ready.  I think he's quite busy at the moment.

There are 9 new/changed lines in the paho source, and we also had to modify websocket-client so it's not in its package-based form any more.
