node-bus
========
node-bus is a project where the goal is to provide a really simple facility
for pubsub-style eventing between clients and a central server.
The bus framework includes a client-side javascript tool which handles all of
the comet requests to make the developer's job as easy as possible.
(automatically degrades from WebSockets to long polling)
Setting Things Up
=================
First download the node-bus repository:
git clone [email protected]:node-bus/node-bus.git --recursive
cd node-bus
git submodule update --init --recursive
Then run the build:
ant
Running the Test Server
=======================
Run the server:
cd apps
node server.js
Then, navigate a browser to http://localhost:8080/
Versions (tags)
===============
* v0.1a - Long-polling support for the client, and functioning server. Chat example and the maintest test app.
* v0.2a - Adding support for WebSocket graceful degradation to longpolling.
* v0.3a - Major changes:
* Moved communication logic into a separate project.
* Added smart publishing (server only publishes to clients that have
callbacks attached to the event)
* Created a collaborative drawing example
* v0.4a - Major changes:
* Increased performance in unsubscribing by using objects for storing
subscription handlers rather than arrays.
* Modularized much of the code base so that subscription handling is shared
between the client/server.
* Started work on transformers.
* 0.5a - Switched backend engine to Socket.IO.
