Exception in LoopEnergy Event Thread about pyloopenergy

[pavoni]

I've steadily been adding to the list of exceptions that I catch and then try and restart the connection.

Afraid I'm tied up for the next couple of weeks - but if you want to try a fix take a look here and perhaps add the exception. https://github.com/pavoni/pyloopenergy/blob/master/pyloopenergy/loop_energy.py#L168

If it works please send a PR!

I'm running my setup on Python 3 - which perhaps behaves very slightly differently as I don't see this.

This appears to be 3.5/3.6 related, and handling that exception will just cause a loop.

I'm working on a fix and will PR shortly.

EDIT: Or not, tried using the socketIO-client-nexus without luck. Not sure how to resolve this now. That exception simply causes a loop though, so is not advisable.

[pavoni]

Catching the exception and setting self.reconnect_needed = True should just close the socket and try to re-connect.

If you turn up the log level you should see some messages about trying to reconnect.

If it's looping it may be worth seeing if the connect is returning some sort of useful error.

[BenWoodford]

Yeah, it just looped reconnecting when I tried it.

If you’d like a replicated environment, I’m doing this within the latest dev tag of the Home Assistant docker container, and running the code found here: home-assistant/core#8137 (comment)

Should be fixed by #28
