This is work in progress. The code should work, but it's missing tests, documentation, and an example.

django-tornadio2

There currently doesn't exist an out-of-the-box app that gives Django the ability to communicate over WebSockets.

TornadIO2 is an implementation of the socket.io protocol on top of the Torando non-blocking web server. Since TornadIO2 and Tornado are written in python, integrating them with Django is almost straightforward.

Goal/Requirements

• A management command to start Tornado and setup URL patterns and handlers.
• A connection class to manage active sessions.
• Utility functions (in the connection class) to facilitate common tasks, such as user authentication.
