Re: [paho-dev] Status of paho-mqtt for python

[Peter Silva <peter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I normally use ubuntu packages, but I wanted to make a PR for a feature I need.  To start work, I need to get a working 

source tree.  Is the master branch on github supposed to be usable?

I cloned the master branch of https://github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.python and the try using it

by installing with "pip3 install -e . " on my linux workstation.

It seems like master is both broken, and the last patch it got was at least a year ago... 

I run "make test"  result:

...

=============================================== 26 failed, 18 passed, 21 skipped, 8 warnings in 250.82s (0:04:10) ===============================================
make: *** [Makefile:35: test] Error 1

I try using it in my application, 

    self.reconnect()
  File "/home/peter/src/paho.mqtt.python/src/paho/mqtt/client.py", line 1045, in reconnect
    _on_pre_connect_ = self.on_pre_connect
  File "/home/peter/src/paho.mqtt.python/src/paho/mqtt/client.py", line 1863, in on_pre_connect
    return self._on_pre_connect
AttributeError: 'Client' object has no attribute '_on_pre_connect'. Did you mean: 'on_pre_connect'?

Does this make sense?  Should I be working from some other source?

Thank you for the update and sorry for the duplicate question. I just joined the mailing list so I hadn't seen that previous conversation. I understand and appreciate your time and effort!

If you get a chance to update people on GitHub asking about timelines on those tickets I'm sure it would be appreciated by the wider community. I agree with the sentiment that languishing PRs and lack of response on tickets gives the appearance that the project is dead and contributes to fewer volunteers working on the project.

I'll look forward to the release in October!

Have a great day,

Nic Schrading

Hello,

I'm one of the maintainer on this repository but lacking time to sort
all issues. As said in a previous email [1] I still have in my task to
make a release. I didn't saw that some important issues were fixed and
required release.

I'll do that release in October.

Regards,

Pierre
