I am pondering about writing a client/server software with websockets as communication protocol. The clients will run in browser as Javascript programs and the server may be in any (any sensible) programming language running standalone to be connected remotely by the browser-based JS clients.
I found a Python sample[*] but I am neither familiar with Python nor with the 'simple_websocket_server' package that is used in that sample code. But the code looks so simple that I'm considering to learn and use Python for the task. The requirements I have are quite simple; I want to get the client "address"/identifier from an incoming message, store it in a list, and send responses to all active clients for which addresses have been stored. Can anyone tell me whether a simple extension of that "echo incoming message" sample[*] would be easily possible with Python and with that 'simple_websocket_server' package used? Thanks for any hints (or search keywords, or code samples)! Janis [*] https://pypi.org/project/simple-websocket-server/ -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
