[jira] Created: (COUCHDB-841) Support WebSockets in continuous changes feeds

Support WebSockets in continuous changes feeds
----------------------------------------------

                 Key: COUCHDB-841
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-841
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: HTTP Interface
    Affects Versions: 1.0
            Reporter: Dirkjan Ochtman


Just wanted to put this on the roadmap: it would be nice if continuous changes feeds (and maybe some other things in CouchDB, not sure) could support WebSockets. WebSockets are an emerging standard (there's no final spec yet) with implementations in both recent Chrome and Firefox (beta) releases that allows servers to push information to the browser without having to do polling (or longpolling).

Dirkjan Ochtman commented on COUCHDB-841:
-----------------------------------------

I should note here, I asked Bob Ippolito (the main author of mochiweb, which is used for CouchDB's http layer) if/when mochiweb growed WebSocket support. He mentioned that someone on github has implemented it, but he will hold off from merging it until someone explicitly asks him to work on that (since he doesn't need WebSocket for his own use cases).

As for "final spec", I'm not sure there'll be something like a version 1.0, but there'll be a working draft or something that has reached consensus and is implemented in the same way in several different browsers (likely Gecko and Webkit).

---------------------------------------

When is a standard considered final spec? 1.0?
