Has this become abandonware? #86

Open webbower opened 8 years ago

webbower commented 8 years ago

My company is using SubsManager for our site and we're having some issues. I'm looking through the issues list and see that some have been open since 2014 and others have only the original reporter's initial message and no response from @arunoda and the last commit was 6 months ago for a patch version bump.

If this has become abandonware, can anyone suggest a comparable subscription caching package that may still be under active development or at least getting regular bug fixes merged in? We've seen https://github.com/ccorcos/meteor-subs-cache but haven't tried it yet.

Would also be interested in an answer or recommendation of an alternative solution to this problem.

Me too. I submitted a PR to this repo months ago, and am dealing with unfixed bugs.

Data-Meister commented 8 years ago

https://github.com/ccorcos/meteor-subs-cache has been marked as 'Deprecated' however there's a fork here https://github.com/ElvishJerricco/meteor-subs-cache with a bug fixed. The fork is also in atmosphere as "elvishjerricco:subs-cache"

Since the fork was actively developed in the last 3 months maybe this could be a good starting point?

Sent a pull request to ElvishJerricco/meteor-subs-cache, that ports the fix for issue https://github.com/ccorcos/meteor-subs-cache/issues/4

I'm interested in porting this package to npm for use with RN. I haven't had any issues with it and have been using it in production for a few years now (but obviously you guys do have some issues).

snajjar commented 8 years ago

I was using https://github.com/ccorcos/meteor-subs-cache, was great but a few issues needed fix (particulary the "can't set timers inside simulation" issue).

Overall, the package was great and gave more control over subscriptions and callbacks, but it has been deprecated, and now a maintainer is wanted. I would gladly continue to use it if someone shows up. Maybe @gaurav- or @ElvishJerricco ?

@snajjar Looks like we have a new maintainer now: https://github.com/ccorcos/meteor-subs-cache/issues/28#issuecomment-263692763

I'm just now considering using a sub manager.. This package is still the one mentioned in the galaxy docs: http://galaxy-guide.meteor.com/apm-reduce-bandwidth-and-cpu-waste.html

Any news on the maintenance of this package?
Should I be using this one or a different one?

elie222 commented 7 years ago

This one still works. There are a few others. May be worth using one of the newer ones if you're starting with it now. But this package has been working fine for years.

@elie222 thanks for replying.. any newer one you recommend?

Though I'm sure this package works now, if in the future Meteor will change core pub/sub inner workings this package will be obsolete... no?

elie222 commented 7 years ago

Potentially but I don't think massive changes are going to happen to pub sub. I wouldn't worry about that and enough people use this that it will get an update if needed. But it's been stable for years.

I can't find the other versions of it right now. Probably listed in the issues here.
