================================================================================

Converts non-GET HTTP requests to

[server-sent events](http://dev.w3.org/html5/eventsource/).

The server accepts non-GET HTTP requests on path `/events/` and echoes

them on an event source along the path `/events/`.  Example, if you

submit an HTTP POST request to `/events/my-event/foo`, it will be available in the

event stream `/events/my-event/foo`.

The data sent on the event is a JSON object with the following properties:

* `method`: the HTTP request method used to push the event

* `headers`: the HTTP request headers

* `body`: the body of the request that pushed the event

usage

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    pusheventd [options]

options:

    -p --port NUMBER     tcp/ip to run server on

    -v --verbose         be verbose

    -h --help            print this help

The port may also be specified in the PORT environment variable.

notes / caveats

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This server is not currently designed to scale, in terms of running

multiple instances "on the cloud".

There is no security at all.  You probably don't want to advertise the URL to

your server to the world, or at least don't advertise the path you push and

pull from.
