Here is a solution for SSE over http-kit channels
(defn server-event-source [ch] ;; Adding a mult here is dangerous because
it bleeds the underlying ;; channel dry. We should provide the mult via
modular.async (let [m (async/mult ch)] (fn [req] (let [ch (async/chan 16)]
(async/tap m ch) (with-channel req net-ch (on-close net-ch (fn [_]
(async/untap m ch) (async/close! ch))) (send! net-ch {:headers headers}
false) (go-loop [] (when-let [data (<! ch)] (println "Got data! " data)
(send! net-ch (->message data) false) (recur))))))))
