[Feature Request] Adding support for http requests instead of web-sockets? #76

Open LucasCNordstrom opened 4 months ago

LucasCNordstrom commented 4 months ago

Hello!

Not an issue but more a question-

Will you be adding support for http requests instead of Websockets?

Requesting specific reports for specific vessels, getting the latest one, and in the future possibly getting the latest x amount of reports or some types? In my application I'd rather make a request for the current positions of vessels rather than constantly being connected through web sockets, waiting for a response.

Sorry if this has either been answered somewhere else or if it wouldn't be needed for anyone else than me.

Thank you for the suggestion.

This is unlikely to happen in any reasonable amount of time. However, we will leave the issue open for tracking purposes.
