I have come across multiple ways to describe a websocket connection object while using the websockets library in python but can't seem to understand which way to go. In the documentation, the code to start a server is very simple. import asyncio from websockets.asyncio.server import serve async def hello(websocket): name = await websocket.recv() print(f"<<< {name}") greeting = f"Hello {name}!" await websocket.send(greeting) print(f">>> {greeting}") async def main(): async with serve(hello, "localhost", 8765) as server: await server.serve_forever() if __name__ == "__main__": asyncio.run(main()) But when I simply copy and paste the code, the IDE cannot recognize the .recv() and the .send() methods. So I started to look around what is the type of the websocket object to get some idea about it and what other methods are available for that object. So I found that all these can be used: - websockets.ServerConnection - websockets.server.ServerConnection - websockets.asyncio.server.ServerConnection I think the methods they provide are the same. If these are significantly different, then an explanation? Can I use any of the three and it won't make much difference? In the documentation, the asyncio implementation of the server creates a websockets.asyncio.server.ServerConnection instance upon client connection. So then what are the other classes? I'm sorry if this is too basic. Continue reading...
