Actually that is correct behavior. It flush out the buffer into a window running JavaScript on most browsers and get the browser to execute the code contained in the data. You should set your encoding to be simple by adding ";kn_response_format=simple" to the request URL. -greg On Sunday, March 30, 2003, at 04:40 PM, Asynch Messaging wrote: > Anyway, the java client is now moving on to the next bug. > When I read the event stream after the initial status event, I see a > large > number of whitespace characters.

Oh, the shame of it all... The java client was unable to read the event stream because the server was not creating a persistent connection - because of a bug in my code where I used 'kn_method' instead of 'do_method. And the 'do_method' name was my idea to begin with, how embarassing... Anyway, the java client is now moving on to the next bug. When I read the event stream after the initial status event, I see a large number of whitespace characters. Like 4000 in a couple seconds or less. This doesn't seem right. I can understand a few characters once in a while, but that many seems odd. I also never see anything except whitespace characters after the initial status event. Any help would be appreciated (like more logging in the python server - I got the opportunity to learn a new language and add some debug statements...) |

This error might be caused by the previous 'live' subscription being messed
up - I'm not able to confirm that it is working.
Does the python server require a live subscription ('do_method=route') to
have all the data in query parameters? I'm sending the data in the POST
body. I'm able to read an initial status event, but then it appears the
stream is closed by the server...

Ok, there's now a Python command-line chat mod_pubsub/python_pubsub/apps/chat.py that works the same way as the Perl command-line chat mod_pubsub/kn_tools/chat.plx demonstrating that the Python PubSub Client Library pubsublib.py works as advertised. (This Rifkin says without having a test suite nor a ping app.) Anyone want to take a stab at Tkinter-izing it? Adam |

1. We'd like to get a mod_pubsub-enabled chat room up-and-running on http://modpubsub.com/ where we can chat anytime. Suggestion is to use the mod_pubsub/kn_apps/presence2/ application, which Scott & Joyce worked on last fall, since it uses real authentication (instead of the = cookie auth used by mod_pubsub/kn_apps/presence1/ ). 2. We're looking forward to Unicode support in cxx_pubsub, coming soon. 3. Fred's Apache log watcher + browser user-agent info + other cookie = info + mod_pubsub/kn_apps/sitewatch =3D a more interesting web monitoring app 4. ModPubSub.pm may work for me on Debian, but others are having = difficulty getting it to work. May require an ExecCGI tweak in the conf file. Probably requires changing some of the INSTALL instructions. Is <Perl>...</Perl> in httpd.conf a convention people are used to? 5. Latest changes checked into mod_pubsub/php_pubsub include a PubSub Client Library that supports both PHP3 *and* PHP4. Ben's the man! Joyce called Ben's PHP "cute" and "ghetto". :) 6. It would be nice to get mod_pubsub/cgi-bin/soap_gateway/ working. 7. We're all big fans of the work Mike is doing to get a Java PubSub Client Library working. 8. I wonder if we can build mod_pubsub/c_pubsub/libkn/ on cygwin. 9. Next up for mod_pubsub/python_pubsub/ : A. Get watchdog working in pubsub.py B. Add statistics topic to pubsub.py for router stats monitoring C. Add test suite to pubsublib.py (port kn_apps/test/ ) D. ping.py (port kn_apps/ping1/ ) E. chat.py (port kn_tools/chat.plx ) F. cleaner.py (to actively remove expired events) G. off-host routes in pubsub.py H. kn_content_transform in pubsub.py I. SSL support in pubsub.py J. py2exe pubsub.py and pubsublib.py (for bonus points: Installer) K. bridge.py (for router federation) L. pythonize kn_tools/list_*.plx M. pythonize kn_sense/apache_logfile.sh N. doxygen comments, baby! O. Twisted Internet, baby! And there was much rejoicing, Adam |

These changes were checked in; do "cvs update" in your =
mod_pubsub/php_pubsub
directory to get the new changes...
1. Renamed from "PHP PubSub Client Library" to "PubSub Client Library =
for
PHP" after reading the PHP license.
2. Now it works even in newer PHP4, where globals are not imported
(yay!); added a kn__gpc() function to emulate globals in a
backwards-compatible fashion.
3. Now each page displays the PHP version.
4. Added a PUBSUB_NULL constant which is NULL in PHP4 and "" in PHP3.
5. Switched from __call__ to __call for the callable interface to be
compatible with PHP4 object overloading.
6. Now kn_apply works in both PHP3 and PHP4.
7. Prefixed the nasty $kn_server "local" globals with underscores.
8. Added "NULL" support to kn_toSource.
php'ers of the world, unite!
Adam
P.S. -- Mike sent me the following question but I don't know Java

Mike asked: > What's up with the pubsub_raw.js & references in kn_apps to pubsub.js? > I'm trying to use chat1 & it includes 'pubsub.js' but that file = doesn't > exist - pubsub_raw.js exists. =20 The top-level Makefile creates pubsub.js out of pubsub_raw.js by running the JavaScript compressor in kn_tools. So, you can either: 1. Run "make" at the top level to create pubsub.js, or 2. Copy the file pubsub_raw.js to pubsub.js, which works as well but is uncompressed, or 3. Download the v0.9 tarball, which includes a ready-made compressed pubsub.js, or 4. Rename "kn.js" from the KnowNow commercial product to pubsub.js and put it in the kn_apps/kn_lib directory. pubsub_raw.js remains as the readable, modifiable JavaScript PubSub Library. pubsub.js is its more-efficient-over-the-wire companion.

mod_pubsub/index.html and mod_pubsub/kn_apps/index.html have been
modified
to reflect these new additions and modifications. One step closer to
Rohit
completing his PhD... ;)
1. mod_pubsub/cgi-bin/PubSub/Client.pm
mod_pubsub/cgi-bin/PubSub/Server.pm
mod_pubsub/cgi-bin/pubsub.cgi
A bug in Client.pm was fixed; we now allow server URI's to end in
"/".
The server logic was moved out of pubsub.cgi and into Server.pm.
The Perl PubSub library is one step closer to being CPAN-able.
We also set up a pointer to the Perl PubSub library from
mod_pubsub/perl_pubsub
as per Rohit's suggestion, so newbies can more easily find it.=20
Now pubsub.cgi is a stub that calls dispatch_request() in Server.pm.
This allows us to run PubSub as an Apache module
mod_pubsub/cgi-bin/PubSub/ModPubSub.pm
which, as you all recall, was the original goal of this project.
That's right: the mod_pubsub project has finally developed...
ModPubSub.
We made several bug fixes in Server.pm in conjunction with this
effort.
Here's how to onfigure your Apache server to run the mod_pubsub Perl
module.
You can do this by adding lines like the following to httpd.conf.
You may need to adjust the filenames for your Apache document root
[default mod_pubsub directory: "/var/www/mod_pubsub"; default
mod_pubsub directory URL "/mod_pubsub"].
<Perl>
use lib "/var/www/mod_pubsub/cgi-bin";
use PubSub::ModPubSub 'mod_pubsub';
mod_pubsub("/var/www/mod_pubsub", "/mod_pubsub", "/kn",
\%Location, \%Directory);
</Perl>
2. mod_pubsub/php_pubsub/publish.php
We now offer an example of how to publish to a PubSub server using
PHP.
Sign us up for Sourceforge's PHP Foundry, baby! :)
For subscribe using PHP, for now we're gonna wield Occam's Machete
and
recommend embedding the JavaScript PubSub Client Library.
PHP + JavaScript =3D Two Great Tastes That Taste Great Together
3. mod_pubsub/cgi-bin/soap_gateway/
A preliminary SOAP interface to mod_pubsub. When complete, the SOAP
interface will include support for incoming SOAP requests, off-host
SOAP routes, and external SOAP service invocation. Meantime, see
mod_pubsub/cgi-bin/soap_gateway/soapdesign.html
for an overview of the design and issues associated with its
development.
3. mod_pubsub/python_pubsub/pubsub.py
Fixed kn_expires so people can use infinity and +infinity.
Made kn_time_t float instead of int.
mod_pubsub/kn_apps/ping1 now works properly with the Python PubSub
Server.
4. mod_pubsub/kn_tools/pubsub_ping/
A command-line ping utility that uses Fred's C PubSub Client Library
to measure round-trip time in milliseconds.
5. mod_pubsub/kn_tools/perftool/
Kragen's command-line tool that measures all kinds of performance
numbers.
I checked this in without Greg's modifications because I wasn't sure
which of those changes work.
6. mod_pubsub/kn_apps/kn_lib/tunnelmonitor/
mod_pubsub/kn_apps/stocks1/
mod_pubsub/kn_apps/stocks2/
mod_pubsub/kn_apps/subtopics/
mod_pubsub/kn_apps/supplychain/
With these additions, mod_pubsub now has fifty DHTML apps
("weblications")
in the mod_pubsub/kn_apps directory. Rohit noticed that we hadn't
checked
in any "stock portfolio" UI's so I added ones from Greg and Andrew,
as well
as the cool one Rajeev, Poornima, and Ben worked on that includes a
ticker
running across the bottom of the page. supplychain is an early 2001
app that
Bryan Boyer developed for Xander, subtopics is a much simpler version
of the
introspect app, and tunnelmonitor allows an application using the
JavaScript
PubSub Library to detect a failed network connection or a stopped
PubSub Server.
7. mod_pubsub/kn_docs/design_notes/
Added some raw design notes that we can later weave into more
documentation.
mod_pubsub desperately needs more documentation.
8. I wanted to check in Jeff's ktest framework for Java, but I don't
have a Java
PubSub Client Library it can use. Yet. (Thanks in advance, Mike! ;)
9. From the "turd polishing" department, I wordsmithed the mod_pubsub
homepage:
http://mod-pubsub.sourceforge.net/
All this is more than enough to warrant making a v0.9 tarball. You can
download
Said tarball from here:

Enjoy,
Adam
P.S. -- Next items to do, working our way toward a v1.0 release...
1. off host routes in pubsub.py
2. kn_content_transform in pubsub.py
3. add test suite to pubsublib.py
4. sample ping application that uses pubsublib.py
5. sample chat application that uses pubsublib.py
6. add a cleaner.py that can be used with pubsub.py or pubsub.cgi
that cleans up expired events
7. port bridge.py to use pubsublib.py, for pubsub.py federation
8. java_pubsub adds
9. cxx_pubsub/LibKN adds, and compilation into an install package
for Windows that allows for easier experimentation
10. compile pubsub.py into pubsub.exe for running by Windows folks
11. build c_pubsub/libkn on cygwin

We'll be having our next Pubsub User Group meeting at Maxs Restaurants, (650) 365-6297, 1001 El Camino Real, Redwood City, CA 94063=20 =20 http://maps.yahoo.com/py/maps.py?Pyt=3DTmap&ed=3DvCru8ep_0Tqk3OA2gS_r2Dv2= dYS qxb1auR0AtYH3wJFQFFTAqw9MM9OdKIWZjYtX&csz=3DREDWOOD_CITY+CA+94063&country= =3D us On Tuesday March 25, at 7pm. See you then! Adam P.S. -- Lots of additions to mod_pubsub this week. For those with cvs access, do a "cvs update -Pd" so you get the new directories. For those without, I will be making a v0.9 tarball soon. I'll send an inventory of new changes in a separate email. |
