Update python-simconnect with various missing bits #127

Closed Pomax closed 1 year ago

Pomax commented 1 year ago

This is a general sync PR for my master branch in which I've:

added functions for code to register as event listener for SimConnect events,
added support for a number of missing variables,
removed several duplicate variables
updated some variables that had the wrong definitions/types/settable flag, and
added a SimConnection wrapper class to hide some of the lower level functionality
removed the http server (with an eye on security, that should be a separate release on pypi)
updated the README.md to cover the new state of code

If desired, any or all of these changes can be submitted as separate PRs

With zero engagement on this PR (not judging, just noting), and me having moved on to using node-simconnect through https://github.com/Pomax/msfs-simconnect-api-wrapper instead, I don't really have a reason to keep this PR open. Feel free to reopen it if you still want these contributions, but I'm closing this so it doesn't keep taking up space in my github pull requests list.

That's a pitty. I needed camera control from python, and ended up here from the MSFS forum only to get to the closed PR – I had already tried before, but to no avail.

Nothing stopping you from just using my fork, then, I've not deleted my repo. I just don't want to see a PR show up for over a year in my outstanding PRs list. (you could use pip since that allows for git+... locations, or you can download the master branch as .zip file and unpack it to a vendor or third-party dir and then import from there)
