node.js - How to reflect event that happened on the server, in the browser -
i beginner nodejs. wondering how signify/visualize event happened in server. example event might happen once in every 20sec, , want give signal in browser have happened.
i thinking approach request/poll server every 10msec, doesn't seem efficient.
any better ideas?
there 2 way propagate event happen server front.
front polling. every x sec front gonna ask server news.
front : "did happen?"
back : "yes ..."
websocket communication. front open websocket connection server , wait news. happen on back, server send message front. no polling, no useless messages.
a famous websocket socket.io. what's used create chats example.
