# Description: netdata python modules framework

# Remember:
# ALL CODE NEEDS TO BE COMPATIBLE WITH Python > 2.7 and Python > 3.1
# Follow PEP8 as much as it is possible
# "check" and "create" CANNOT be blocking.
# "update" CAN be blocking
# "update" function needs to be fast, so follow:
#   https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonSpeed/PerformanceTips
# basically:
#  - use local variables wherever it is possible
#  - avoid dots in expressions that are executed many times
#  - use "join()" instead of "+"
#  - use "import" only at the beginning
#
# using ".encode()" in one thread can block other threads as well (only in python2)
