[aerogear-dev] Simple Push Server Verticle

Hi, This weekend I've been playing with Dan's Simple Push Server implementation ( https://github.com/danbev/aerogear-simplepush-server/ ) and I started to write a vert.x implementation of the server. But ... why ? * By nature, vert.x is meant for asynch applications and Simple Push was a perfect fit. * It can easily scale just by running more verticle instances (and soon deployable on openshift) * 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. * 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 https://github.com/danbev/aerogear-simplepush-server/tree/master/server/s... * 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 ! ) 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 ...). You can find it here https://github.com/sebastienblanc/aerogear-simplepush-server/tree/verticl... and use the websocket demo page of Pushee, just as for the server version. Instructions are included in the readme.
