Use http instead of tcp

[HerrMuellerluedenscheid]

I took the very basic server example and changed the protocol from opc.tcp to opc.http. I want to deploy the server to heroku but that apparently does not support tcp endpoints and requires http/s.

This is the server:

import asyncio

from asyncua import Server

async def main():
    server = Server()
    await server.init()
    server.set_endpoint('opc.http://0.0.0.0:4840/freeopcua/server/')
    uri = "http://examples.freeopcua.github.io"
    idx = await server.register_namespace(uri)

    myobj = await server.nodes.objects.add_object(idx, "MyObject")
    myvar = await myobj.add_variable(idx, "MyVariable", 6.7)
    await myvar.set_writable()
    
    async with server:
        while True:
            await asyncio.sleep(1)
            new_val = await myvar.get_value() + 0.1
            await myvar.write_value(new_val)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    print('starting server')
    asyncio.run(main())

When connecting with a basic client:

from asyncua import Client
url = "opc.http://0.0.0.0:4840/freeopcua/server/"
async with Client(url=url) as client:
    _logger.info("Root node is: %r", client.nodes.root)

I'm getting this error:

[...]

Do you have a hint how to work with http over tcp?

Not supported currently

and really far from support. the https requires serialiazation to something else (json if I remember correctly) than binary
