Fixed socket disconnecting about every 2 minutes #63

jfperusse commented 2 years ago

When calling blynk.run(), if no data is received from the server for a while, we would never process the ping messages (heartbeat) which would cause the socket to drop after about 2 minutes.

Calling process() on socket.timeout exceptions will send the heartbeat at the configured frequency and keep the socket connected.

@vshymanskyy please merge this, it's needed, otherwise the current library is pretty useless. Also, please publish a new version so it can be installed via pip.
