# Ruby library for using server-sent events

This repository contains server_sent_events gem sources.


## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

    gem "server_sent_events"

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

    $ gem install server_sent_events


## Usage

Minimal program that listens to server events and simply prints them to
console would look something like this:

    require "server_sent_events"
    
    ServerSentEvents.listen("http://127.0.0.1:8001") do |event|
      puts event
    end


## Development

After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then,
run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an
interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`.
To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then
run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version,
push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to
[rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
