I noticed that the last commit is from May 2017 and that the description includes [DEPRECATED]. @edmorley is this project still being maintained? If not, is there an up to date fork? Or should we just use WebSocket more directly as described here. Thank you!

@davidhariri Hi!

This project is no longer maintained - the only reason I hadn't archived it already was in the hope that someone would fork it, and I could advertise that fork here before archiving (once archived no-one can comment). See: https://github.com/heroku-python/flask-sockets/issues/81#issuecomment-906367513

I might be interested in forking it. I have to think on the level of commitment. Would that re-link pypi or would I publish my own package separately?

edmorley commented 2 years ago

For security/least surprise reasons, I think it would be best to start a new package on PyPI. However, I can link to it and the repo from messaging in this repo before I archive it.

I'm archiving this repo now - if someone ends up creating a fork that is actively maintained, at-mention me on an issue in the fork asking for a link to be added to this repo to the new repo, and I can make the edits then :-)

For anyone looking for a replacement, I would check out this alternative :-) https://github.com/miguelgrinberg/flask-sock
