Frequent Disconnections

Is this released yet?

@sujith @Kailash : I would agree with @ankur0101 on this. Also, since kite API is based on Python, at least python websocket client should have been a stable one and should have been the first one for new stable features like reconnect (based on tick).
On the other hand it looks like python websocket client is the least stable and last to get feature updates.
While I was going through other threads, people have reported that they have gotten 90+ disconnections throughout the day on python websocket client (i.e. one disconnection every 4 min). Also, all disconnections (at least in my case) are the ones where Zerodha server is closing/Terminating connection. Any specific reasons for this.

Would request your urgent attention on this - else, I am not sure how to go ahead with automated trading using Kite APIs when data sanctity is in question.

@sujith is this resolved yet?

@vivek Thanks a tonne.

1) Should we just do a "pip install pykiteconnect" for this upgrade ? Or we need to clone/download it?
2) where should we put the line "kws.enable_reconnect(reconnect_interval=5, reconnect_tries=50)" in our code - just before calling ws.connect() ?

after the installation getting this error

AttributeError: 'WebSocket' object has no attribute 'enable_reconnect'

Also, is there any issues today with socket. The socket keeps closing after few secs of connecting and now I am not even able to issue ws.reconnect() or kws.connect() in on_close() call back method.

I got the new package installed by doing the below command

pip install directory where setup.py exists

now also, the socket is getting closed every second. and its reconnecting. there is really something wrong with the socket connection today.

@vivek @sujith : am using the beta version now (and running 3 websockets)

Following is the issue - first disconnection gets reconnected successfully. On second disconnection, no reconnection is made.
Can you please check the code and see if all the disconnections are covered or only first.

For people having issue with installing.

1. Uninstall current kiteconnect package or create a new virtualenv to test. (pip unininstall kiteconnect)
2. Install the new package from Github branch -

pip install https://github.com/rainmattertech/pykiteconnect/archive/master.zip

@pinkpanther,
You can do it using NaiveSSLContext
It will just accept all certificates.

You will have to set this naive context to your websocket factory. Code looks like this,

WebSocketFactory wsf = new WebSocketFactory();
SSLContext context = NaiveSSLContext.getInstance("TLS");
wsf.setSSLContext(context);
