python到“流”字典处理

Question

I have an algorithm in python that does an exhaustive search of possibilities given a set of inputs.

This is hooked up to a web application and can take up to 15 seconds to fully process.

So...yes I want to eventually improve on the algo and process quicker, but I'd also like to include a visualization that streams the possibilities python is working with until it arrives at a solution.

In my terminal, python generates the list of possibilities line by line until it finds a combo that satisfies the requirements

How can I hook Python's terminal output up with my client-side framework

Ideally it would simulate the terminal's output and the user can see evidence that the algo is running while they wait.

Would I convert the output to bytes, open a socket, and then stream the data within my application as I deserialize it?

Answer 1

You can do this using websockets. Generally, you would have a separate socket server running, like socket.io . Both your web server and client-side javascript would connect to the socket server and communicate back and forth, or in your case, just continuously sending messages to the client.
