How cancel randomgenerator after all connections is closed

[shanealynn]

To achieve this, I think you will need to manually keep a count of the number of clients connected in your Python application. On each new client, you will receive a "connect" event, and when they leave, a "disconnect" event - you can implement a counter based on this, and then stop the random generation based on the counter.

Does that make sense?

But which of command terminate generator?
i'm trying
'''
@socketio.on('disconnect', namespace='/test')
def test_disconnect():
print('Client disconnected')
thread._stop()
'''
but thread._stop() crash my app.
And how to write correctly?

I think you're on the right track - but you may need to add some sort of more complex object that is managing the thread activities so that you can pause it.
