Emit recieved on the client side only after the server-side emit function returns

[ahmedtalhakhan]

I tried to use django-socketio but faced an issue. When an event is emitted from the client-side, it is immediately received on the server side. However, when the server-side emits the event, it is only received when the sending function from the server-side code returns. I tried by sending multiple emits and then returning. Here is the sample code

Here is my events.py

@Namespace('/test')
class TestNs(BaseNamespace):
    def on_test(self,msg):
        for i in range(5):
            self.emit('test','1')
            time.sleep(1)

        time.sleep(10)
        self.emit('test','atlast')

And here is what the client looks like

var socket = io.connect('/test');
socket.emit('test','Send to server');
socket.on('test', function(data){console.log("Got back " + data(})

Client-side shows data when the sender in server-side returns. Am I missing something or is this a buffering issue?

I will test that today and give you feedback. From my perspective should work.

It works with gevent.sleep(). I think it has something to do with gevent threads. They ought to know that the application wants to sleep. Just guessing though
