Evaluate replacing steem-python #2

Closed roadscape closed 6 years ago

roadscape commented 7 years ago

Currently, the software relies extensively on 3 specific API calls: get_content, get_block, and get_dynamic_global_properties. It calls these through steem-python, with which there have been issues that may affect HA. It also doesn't support websockets. Evaluate whether if it's worth to run the whole stack vs purpose-specific API routines.
