David Davis commented on COUCHDB-841:
-------------------------------------
I agree with Nathan. WebSocket support would be nice, but Server Sent Events
(SSE) is better suited for the _changes feed. This task is over a year old with
no movement. Implementing SSE in couchdb would be very easy. I moved my vote
to the #986 task; I suggest others do the same.
> 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).
