Getting pin values take too long when there are a lot of pins on the page

[amks1]

This is with respect to an internal tool where I have around 150 pin inputs on the page which are dynamically generated for each user to enter certain variables for configurations.

It takes around 40 seconds to get the values of all these, because there is message to and from the server to retrieve each of them.

Can we explore something like pin.get_pin_values(*pin_names) to get the values of all the inputs in one message?

It's a good idea to provde an api to get multiple pin values at one time. I will add this api in next few weeks

The pin.get_pin_values() is added to the PyWebIO dev version. Hope it's not late.

You can use the following command to install the dev version:

pip3 install -U https://github.com/pywebio/PyWebIO/archive/dev-release.zip
