dazworrall / flask-sse Goto Github PK

It'd be nice to add flask-sse to pypi so it can be installed via pip, which makes deployment a little friendlier.

How much eventsource clients where you able to connect on one flask-see instance?

I am right now evaluating different backend servers for EventSource. I was able to connect > 3000 clients through a node.js backend and send very stable messages to them. But 3000 seems very small to me, if I compare that with other protocols (mqtt, websockets) i tested.

What are the limits you experienced?

Thanks for this handy little project, but nowhere is mentioned the license of the code. Could you make it explicit?

I got this error trying the example included in the repo:
AssertionError: u'retry: 2000\n\n' is not a byte.
