jthomas opened a new issue #130: Support listening to cloud events in knative
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk-runtime-nodejs/issues/130
 
 
   This is a feature request... 
   
   Looking at the recent knative integration (#119) - this works great for actions listening to HTTP requests as it proxies between the HTTP request and the expected Web Action parameters/response. 
   
   This work could be extended to support listening to Cloud Events on Knative. This would allow those actions to be connected to knative [event sources](https://knative.dev/docs/eventing/).
   
   Digging around in how Cloud Event receivers work - they use an SDK which just listens on a HTTP port for the incoming events and decodes to an object, e.g. 
   https://github.com/knative/eventing-sources/blob/master/cmd/event_display/main.go
   
   We can just import the CloudEvents JS SDK to handle the HTTP transport and proxy the events to the handler functions.
