Realtime update and synchronization between distinct sessions #7

Realtime update and synchronization between distinct sessions : https://youtu.be/MZvmYaFkNJI?t=419

"You need to use Websockets. Try this widget: https://github.com/40ants/weblocks-websocket And also you'll need some library to do the pubsub. I found this one working atop of Redis:

https://github.com/death/lredis But I didn't try lredis yet.

A little "dsl" on top of that would be nice. Like the "broadcast" message that appears in the video. That automatically plugs websockets for weblocks components."

It is better to make such tools as a separate library. But thanks for an idea.

I think weblocks-websocket can be updated to handle more commands (rather than just updating the widget which sends an 'update message') and also to manage subscribing clients and publishing messages to them. I will give it a try and also create a demo if I succeed
