from my limited time in the code this is what i would say: You have a slight difference in the implementation of the client and server API objects, which is the biggest difference from socket.io/engine.io. The "socket" object in engine.io (which happens to be enough of a valid Stream to support my use case) is what I would be looking to replace. If the features you're adding, which are great, were built as extensions on a unified interface that handles the actual long polling and delivery of opaque strings I could use that module provided it implemented the Stream interface.
Myself and many others have built features on top of engine.io and shoe by building on top of duplex streams which means that if these were similar streams that just delivered the strings from one end to the other it would be a simple change to swap out engine.io/shoe. Here are some examples: https://github.com/mikeal/eiojson/blob/master/index.js#L29 https://github.com/mikeal/eioemitter/blob/master/index.js#L5 https://github.com/mikeal/eiomethods/blob/master/index.js#L19 -Mikeal On Jul 8, 2013, at 12:36PM, Oleg Slobodskoi <oleg...@googlemail.com> wrote: > Please take a look at the code and let me know what you would need to make it > usable for your usecase. > > On Monday, July 8, 2013 9:31:21 PM UTC+2, Mikeal Rogers wrote: > Interesting. > > I'm basically using engine.io as a simple stream.
