faye-websocket is a general-purpose WebSocket implementation
|
||
|
|
extracted from the Faye project. It provides classes for easily
|
||
|
|
building WebSocket servers and clients in Ruby. It does not
|
||
|
|
provide a server itself, but rather makes it easy to handle
|
||
|
|
WebSocket connections within an existing Rack application.
|
||
|
|
It does not provide any abstraction other than the standard
|
||
|
|
WebSocket API.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It also provides an abstraction for handling EventSource connections,
|
||
|
|
which are one-way connections that allow the server to push data
|
||
|
|
to the client. They are based on streaming HTTP responses and can
|
||
|
|
be easier to access via proxies than WebSockets.
