When I try to use the functionality that uses websockets in my application, I get this error in the console:
File "/Users/user/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/simple_websocket/ws.py", line 138, in __init__
raise RuntimeError('Cannot obtain socket from WSGI environment.')
RuntimeError: Cannot obtain socket from WSGI environment.
I also get this error in the browser console:
WebSocket connection to 'ws://localhost:5000/socket.io/?EIO=4&transport=websocket&sid=40NYzDgGYStMR0CEAAAJ' failed:
I tried using gevent, gevent-websocket, and eventlet, but this created other issues, and I'm not sure that I need to use gevent or eventlet for this use case.
Here's the rest of the relevant code:
__ init __.py
from flask_socketio import SocketIO
...
socketio = SocketIO()
def create_app(config_class=Config):
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config.from_object(Config)
socketio.init_app(app, cors_allowed_origins='*')
...
return app
app.py
from app import create_app, socketio
app = create_app()
if __name__ == '__main__':
socketio.run(app)
routes.py This only accepts POST requests because I send data to this route from a Celery task
from app import socketio
...
@main_bp.route('/send_message', methods=['POST'])
def send_message():
...
socketio.emit('test_message', {'msg':'Test'}, namespace='/test')
return 'Results Sent'
index.html
var socket = io.connect('http://localhost:5000/test');
socket.on('connect', function(){
console.log('Connected to socket')
});
socket.on('test_message', function(message){
console.log('Received test message');
}
)
Note that in the browser console I'll see "Connected to socket", but not "Received test message"
