@laforge49: castra demos start with castra- right now, maybe a useful convention to keep (or we could come with another way to find those). So I think castra-notify, castra-simple-notify or castra-notify-random are all good.

I'll go with castra-notify-random then. Unless there is other input.

@laforge49 Cool Example. Is this sending updates from the server to the browser via Castra? Castra Push?

castra--there is no castra push

In discussions with @micha long poll appears to be better than wev sockets for clusters.

Are random numbers are being generated on the server and sent to the client?

So at some point we need to enhance notify to use long poll.

yes

just like in castra-simple.

oh I see, what you mean. No async push, it's polling.

castra-simple2 uses notify which really is not the best use case.

yes

I'm working on a version of castra-chat which will be a much better use case for notify.

Are you going to add it to the hoplon examples?

of course.

But I'm really s l o w at this. New to clojurescript and do not know js. So give me a few days.

Plus, I need to rearchitect to fit with how notify works.

@symbit Right now that notify-based chat is here: https://github.com/laforge49/castra-chat2

But it has not gotten too far! 😄

Later I expect to rename it notify/demos - castra-notify-chat.

I am reading the docs on dataflow in Castra … are there any demos of that entire flow?

Now that we have the datomic integration in place (trivial though it is) I was thinking of having a go at the whole thing … with some support! If something already exists that I can extend that would be great...

which part is missing from the existing demos?

I didn’t think there was an example of a record exchange

something which updates another thing on the server… but maybe I’m missing something!

there are a number of those in the chat demo

the login function for example

all the rpc functions with the bangs on them

ok, so I should be able to lift that … just to be sure, do you think it’s worth doing something aside from that with Datomic?

sure, it would be interesting to see an update, no?

or something?

ok, I’ll bash something together
