What does setPhase() in the js client?

[giuseppe.corti]

Hi Robert1,

The old web libraries used an undocumented private protocol specific to the javascript languages.
So it is not a good idea to try to reverse engineering that protocol in order to apply it to other languages.
For example the LS_Phase is a very specific element of the javascript protocol used to recognize possible duplicate replies but which do not make sense in other languages.

For your python client you should implement the TLCP protocol version 2.0.0: https://sdk.lightstreamer.com/ls-gen...ifications.pdf
Something like this example do: https://github.com/Lightstreamer/Lig...thon/tree/v1.1
Indeed there is a new ready made python client library but that requires a Lightstreamer server 7.x.

Please also note you should make sure if the server you are targeting is enabled to accept requests for the TLCP protocol.

Regards,
Giuseppe

Hi Robert1,

I also started looking in this problem since I want to follow the stock prices with a simple python script. Did you have any success yet? Is there anything on Github that you could share or I could help contribute to?

Thanks,

Hello,


We have recently released a fully-featured Python Client for Lightstreamer on Pypi.
As a simple example, you can look at this demo.
