Hey Matthew.
It was a bit of a surprise to get an issue on a repo I haven't even announced yet :) I'll be doing that on Monday at Realtime Conf EU.
For sure, I'd love to see a Realtime Transport for Faye. Feel free to have a crack at implementing it using one of the existing rtt-
modules as a reference. If not I'll try to get around to this over the coming weeks.
Hello. I'm going to be at Realtime Conf so please come and find me if you have questions :)
Great! Look forward to chatting :)
Thanks Owen, and fascinating presentation. I saw it yesterday via youtube and I'm really looking forward to all the changes around SS 0.4. Once I'm comfortable swapping out 0.3 with 0.4 I'll dig in to this some more.
Thanks Matt. Appreciate it.
@jcoglan it was great to meet you :) Faye is very much on my list of stuff to look into over the coming weeks.
I'm really looking forward to using SS 0.4 and thought this would be a good time/place to ask about supporting the Faye (Bayeux protocol) written by @jcoglan as I haven't seen it mentioned in SocketStream docs or projects yet.
I think Faye's big selling points over the current version of socket.io include it's intelligent multiple transport support/fallbacks and clustering support. Others are choosing to use Faye over socket.io because of issues like this: https://github.com/LearnBoost/socket.io/issues/438
I understand implementing an official rtt-faye module may be a lot to ask at this stage, but I'm hoping that the API for RTTs support a "thicker" transport like Faye. Keep up the great work!
