-This is a plugin to automatically load notices in the browser no
-matter who creates them -- the kind of thing we see with
-search.twitter.com, rejaw.com, or FriendFeed's "real time" news.
+The Orbited plugin enables "real time" updates using Orbited + STOMP
-NOTE: this is an insecure version; don't roll it out on a production
-server.
+See:
+* https://pypi.python.org/pypi/orbited
+* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streaming_Text_Oriented_Messaging_Protocol
-It requires a cometd server. I've only had the cometd-java server work
-correctly; something's wiggy with the Twisted-based server.
+Installation
+============
+add "addPlugin('Orbited');"
+to the bottom of your config.php
-After you have a cometd server installed, just add this code to your
-config.php:
+Settings
+========
+webserver:
+webport:
+channelbase:
+stompserver:
+stompport:
+username:
+password:
+webuser:
+webpass:
- require_once(INSTALLDIR.'/plugins/Comet/CometPlugin.php');
- $cp = new CometPlugin('http://example.com:8080/cometd/');
+Example
+=======
+addPlugin('Orbited', array(
+ 'webserver' => '',
+ 'webport' => '',
+ 'channelbase' => '',
+ 'stompserver' => '',
+ 'stompport' => '',
+ 'username' => '',
+ 'password' => '',
+ 'webuser' => '',
+ 'webpass' => ''
+));
-Change 'example.com:8080' to the name and port of the server you
-installed cometd on.

-TODO:
-
-* Needs to be tested with Ajax submission. Probably messes everything
- up.
-* Add more timelines: personal inbox and tags would be great.
-* Add security. In particular, only let the PHP code publish notices
- to the cometd server. Currently, it doesn't try to authenticate.
