Websockets and EventSource

This was a presentation I gave in MadridJS November 2, 2011.

To see the minimalist slides open index.html (made with Big JS https://github.com/tmcw/big)

The meaty part of the presentation is in the examples dir.

In the presentation the examples were shown in this order:

1. long.html
2. long.js
3. $ node long.js
4. handshake.md
5. ws.html
6. ws.js
7. $ node ws.js
8. event-stream.md
9. es.html
10. es.js
11. $ node es.js

For a fully hosted EventSource service, check http://www.eventsourcehq.com

From there you'll also find an open source, powerful, scalable bridge between RabbitMQ and EventSource implemented in Haskell.

Cheers, Mathias
