How does server is supposed to send data ?

[QM-OSchwab]

Hello,

Using code in #1 , I was able to send data to server, so far so good.
But how does the server is supposed to send data to client ? I looked at the doc and examples but I don't understand how it is meant to be done.

Thx

It's been a while since I was using this, but I believe you can call self.push(data) or self.push_from_producer(producer) from inside one of the on_* methods in your records dispatcher. Those methods come from astm.asynclib.AsyncChat via astm.protocol.ASTMProtocol via astm.server.RequestHandler, which is called by astm.server.Server.handle_accept().

python-astm/astm/asynclib.py

Lines 858 to 874 in 606a774

	def push(self, data):
	"""
	Pushes data on to the channel's fifo to ensure its transmission.
	This is all you need to do to have the channel write the data out to
	the network.
	"""
	sabs = self.send_buffer_size
	if len(data) > sabs:
	for i in range(0, len(data), sabs):
	self.outbox.append(data[i:i+sabs])
	else:
	self.outbox.append(data)
	return self.flush()
	def push_with_producer(self, producer):
	self.outbox.append(producer)
	return self.flush()

You could also probably call the underlying self.send(data) method available via astm.asynclib.Dispatcher, but that's lower-level and you'll lose some of the protocol handling that's otherwise done for you.
