hi all, what's is the om.next way to push updates from server to client?

eg in a chat app?

@myguidingstar call om.next/merge! with the novelty

well, I want to know the recommended medium to transfer the novelty, too. For instance, the old way is to put arbitrary data to websocket or polling then add an event listener

that’s just out of scope of Om Next

what matters is how you side-load your data into the app

which is what I answered

whichever method you use (websockets, polling, SSE…) is completely up to you

okay, got it

you're right, om.next/merge! is the sufficient answer. Thanks a lot

@ethangracer I went down that rabbit hole, so voilà: https://github.com/compassus/omify

haven’t had the time to write docs, but you can get the big picture from the devcards examples: https://github.com/compassus/omify/blob/master/src/devcards/omify/devcards/core.cljs

(I also included one using Recharts)
