[Answer]-Sending Message to user/group of users with uwsgi websockets

1👍

There is nothing like broadcast or global messages in websockets specs. They only “upgrades” an http connection to a lower-level one. What you do with that connection is up to you. The examples show integration with redis as message exchanger but you are free to make other uses.

For your specific case you will need to build a shared list of connected users and implements routing. Remember, you cannot rely on node.js way as it is based on a single threaded setup so everything is way simpler. In uWSGI a websocket connection can happens on a thread, a process or a coroutine, so exchanging data between them is the key.
