Unified API for WebSocket, HTTP streaming and long-polling (WIP)
I and Peter were working on a new unified API for WebSocket, HTTP streaming and long-polling with protocol Channel and macro with-channel.
The new API is fully working now. I just get the time to write a page to explain it a little bit: http://http-kit.org/channel.html.
It has a few benefits:
- unified, simpler
- more feature: support HTTP streaming
- Sever also get notified when client close/away for long-polling/streaming
If interested, please have a try, and tell me how do you think.
