<div dir="ltr">Hi,<div><br><div style>This weekend I've been playing with Dan's Simple Push Server implementation ( <a href="https://github.com/danbev/aerogear-simplepush-server/">https://github.com/danbev/aerogear-simplepush-server/</a> ) and I started to write a vert.x implementation of the server.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>But ... why ? </div><div style><br></div><div style>* By nature, vert.x is meant for asynch applications and Simple Push was a perfect fit.</div><div style><br></div><div style>* It can easily scale just by running more verticle instances (and soon deployable on openshift) <br>
</div><div style><br></div><div style>* Showing how Dan's server can be used as "library", indeed the vert.x implementation consist just in one script, a verticle, relying on the protocol jar and the server impl jar.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>* Removing boiler plate code, vert.x APIs wrap a lot of Netty's logic. Basically, the script replace the Netty package of the server implementation <a href="https://github.com/danbev/aerogear-simplepush-server/tree/master/server/src/main/java/org/jboss/aerogear/simplepush/server/netty">https://github.com/danbev/aerogear-simplepush-server/tree/master/server/src/main/java/org/jboss/aerogear/simplepush/server/netty</a></div>
<div style><br></div><div style>* It's fun and written in Groovy (and because it's vertx, it would be easy to port it to Java, JavaScript or Python, we are brolyglot ! )</div><div style><br></div><div style>So, it's really early/alpha work, a lot of stuff is missing right now but if there is interest, we could add these (security, scheduled "cleaner" verticle ...).</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>You can find it here <a href="https://github.com/sebastienblanc/aerogear-simplepush-server/tree/verticle/verticle">https://github.com/sebastienblanc/aerogear-simplepush-server/tree/verticle/verticle</a> and use the websocket demo page of Pushee, just as for the server version. Instructions are included in the readme.</div>
