I'd like to give micropython-lib a try, but I don't know how to build it and set it up.

Can you document the required steps ?

It's not that missing as spread around, which is common problem. Then, there's vicious cycle - I don't want to make initial hacky ways to do it kind of "official docs" before there will be enough testing, but then people can't find any docs at all.

So, please start here:

and I'll look into adding something to README after all.

Updating the README with a warning about how hacky it is should probably be enough, but at the moment it is very unclear.

From what I understood, I should use pip-micropython from micropython/tools. Should I install every package individually ?

Ok, I added basic instructions to README. They surely expect some familiarity with standard Python package installation process.

Should I install every package individually ?

You can use it the same way as you use pip. This includes installing packages individually, or several at once, or using requirements file. Please refer to pip documentation.

Thank you !

Q #1: Should this be in uasyncio package at all? Upstream doesn't have
this. Pro: will be easier for people do discover (see e.g.
micropython/micropython-lib#148)

Q #2: This provides implements 2 ways to create a WS connections:
1) using start_ws_server(); 2) using wrapping existing StreamReader
and StreamWriter. History: initial prototype of course used 2). But
the idea was "it should be like the official start_server()!!1". But
then I though how to integrate it e.g. with Picoweb, and became clear
that 2) is the most flixble way. So, 1) is intended to be removed.

Q #3: Uses native websocket module for read path, but has own
write path due to micropython/micropython#3396

Q #4: Requires micropython/micropython-lib#227
due to micropython/micropython#3394 .

During development, following questions were posed, and subsequently,
answered:

Q #1: Should this be in uasyncio package at all? Upstream doesn't have
this. Pro: will be easier for people do discover (see e.g.
#148)

A: uasyncio diverges more and more from asyncio, so if something is
convinient for uasyncio, there's no need to look back at asyncio.

Q #2: This provides implements 2 ways to create a WS connections:
1) using start_ws_server(); 2) using wrapping existing StreamReader
and StreamWriter. History: initial prototype of course used 2). But
the idea was "it should be like the official start_server()!!1". But
then I though how to integrate it e.g. with Picoweb, and became clear
that 2) is the most flixble way. So, 1) is intended to be removed.

A: 1) was removed and is not part of the merged version of the patch.

Q #3: Uses native websocket module for read path, but has own
write path due to micropython/micropython#3396

A: So far, so good.

Q #4: Requires #227
due to micropython/micropython#3394 .

A: The prerequisite was merged.
