    Streaming API

    February 17, 2018

    Clients should have a way to tap in to some sort of streaming API to get updates from the server in realtime.

    I've had good luck with the EventSource API on both the client and server side of it. We should define a list of event types that map to the different Microsub actions, so that there's a way for the server to push new events to the client. Things like:

    • channel name and unread count when a post is added to the channel
    • new entries added to a channel (maybe only when a channel is viewed? should all posts be pushed to the client? should the client request entries per channel separately?)
    • what else?

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
