PushEx

PushEx is an implementation of Phoenix websockets/channels which handles best practices of running websockets for you, but allows your business logic to be specified through simple behaviour modules.

PushEx is currently in a pre-release stage as requirements of full release are being met (tests, documentation, load testing).

Features

• Push socket/channel implementation
• Push API implementation
• Customizable hook points to allow authentication and instrumentation
• Designed for performance with a large number of connections and messages

Get Started

The best way to get started is by following the Standalone Installation Guide.

TODO (Prioritized)

• Load testing harness
• Test PushEx.js
• Write JS documentation
• Write installation guide (existing phoenix app)

Icebox

• Better controller 422 handling (show specific field reasons)
• Replace PushEx.Instrumentation.Push implementation as phoenix instrumenters
  • This would be for performance reasons
  • It may not be necessary depending on the results of load testing
