What is the difference between lan_scanner and network_tools

Open guyluz11 opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

I joined the work on network_tools before a couple of months and now I have found this package.

If my test is correct the async searching that I have implemented there is faster for pinging IP but as I didn't look at the code here maybe this package doing staff differently or has more options.

Can you check network_tools and tell me about the differences?, it is waste of time for all of us to build the same thing and maintain it separately.

Yes, your searching method is actually faster, nice job!

I checked out the network_tools and noticed some things that could be improved, I might open a PR related to them soon.

And you're right, it would probably be better to focus on single package.

It looks like people are arriving at this package and opening issues.

Maybe it will be wiser to add to the readme that the focus got combined to network_tools. Unless you intend to keep developing this package?.
