Option for blocking publish about django-eventstream HOT 4 OPEN

Clarification of python methods:

in django_grip the publish function accepts blocking as an argument. django-eventstream does not provide a means to set that argument, always falling back to the default of False.

Perhaps a good model would be to send arbitrary **kwargs, as I can think of use cases for a callback as well.

Interesting. There's an atexit handler in pubcontrol to ensure messages get flushed, but possibly that doesn't work in all situations. Being able to do a blocking send seems reasonable. I've committed something for that.

However, I just realized this may not be needed because you can manually invoke the same waiting effect as the atexit handler like this:

from django_grip import get_pubcontrol

send_event(...)
get_pubcontrol().wait_all_sent()

Let me know if that works.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, that looks like it should do what I want. I will try it out.
I would expect the atexit handling to work as well.
