A (hopefully) short-lived fork of Django Channels' channels_redis package that adds support for persistent connections to Redis.
We plan on working with upstream to merge these changes back into channels_redis. If you want to follow the progress, see:
- upstream issue report on reconnecting every time
- upstream pull request adding persistence to connections
Note: Since this is meant to be a short-lived fork of channels_redis
package, we didn't rename the Python package (i.e. it is still called
channels_redis).
For all other information, refer to to the channels_redis package's README.
We plan on following channels_redis's releases and augmenting them with the
.post<n> post release suffix.
For example, channels_redis_persist versions 2.2.1.post1, 2.2.1.post2,
... will correspond to channels_redis version 2.2.1 with patches adding
persistent connections support applied on top.
Note: The commits on the master branch will not be stable, i.e. they
will be continuously rebased on top of channels_redis's master branch.
