How to use method BlessServer.is_connected()
Reproduction
The following statement is not allowed (assignment in wait):
await b = self.BlessServer.is_connected()
Expected behavior
b = len(self.BlessServer._subscribed_clients) > 0
Suggestion
Perhaps the method should not be async, but I'm not very familiar with asynchronous coding.
I would recommend perusing the the async documentation. There are some short, simple examples of implementation.
Perhaps you meant to use: b = await self.BlessServer.is_connected()
I should also acknowledge that the is_connected
function is currently a misnomer. Not all backends (Windows/macOS/DBus) check for connectivity in the same way. The way I've implemented bless
to check for connectivity is to determine whether a peripheral device has subscribed to any subscribable characteristics. As a result is_connected()
currently only returns True
when the client has subscribed to an available characteristic that is broadcast by bless
Thanks, sorry for not finding this in docu.
The IsConnected() works as "desired" ; when the client aborts, it returns False
No problem
