Migrate from socket.io to SSE / EventSource based EventStreams #15

Open ottomata opened 7 years ago

ottomata commented 7 years ago

Hiya! WMF is planning on decomissioning the socket.io based RCStream in July this year. We've built a new service called EventStreams that takes its place.

I think cocytus should be easy enough to switch over, but let me know if we can help in any way.

Thanks!

Just an friendly reminder: the RCStream service will be turned off in about a month.

Ah, but does this library use pywikibot to consume recentchange stream? If so, Xqt's recent work should help: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/346164/

The Crossref Event Data service, for which Cocytus was a prototype, uses the new SSE stream and combs Wikipedia for references to DOIs and article landing pages that can be connected to DOIs. e.g. http://query.eventdata.crossref.org/events?rows=10&filter=source:wikipedia Details here: https://www.eventdata.crossref.org/guide/
