I'm using a relatively recent vintage Twisted and Nevow (say within the past 3 weeks). I'm trying to do something like this:
def myLPHandler(self, client): def progress(message): # there are a couple of miscellaneous things that happen here... trivial, non-blocking, non-io stuff. client.set("someid", message)
def wrappedprogress(message): reactor.callFromThread(progress, message)
reactor.callInThread(someLongRunningThing, wrappedprogress)
Here's what happens: 1) user clicks a button that calls the method above 2) someLongRunningThing starts up 3) it sends progress messages to wrappedprogress 4) a couple messages show up, but after that they just get buffered (I can see this with liveevil.DEBUG=True)
Should this work? Is there something else I should be doing to keep sending messages across the livepage link?
Generally speaking, LivePage has been great fun to use. It's so easy and yet so powerful!
