Nativescript: Feature request: Server-Sent Events API

[terreb]

I didn't find whether it's planned to be supported in NativeScript.

Would be awesome to have this on board. I know there are some plugins for websockets, but HTTPS/2 + SSE sounds more promising.

I was trying to find information on using SSE with NativeScript and stumbled on this Github Issue. Is there currently no way to have SSE work with NativeScript?

@terreb @statiklabs you can check out https://www.npmjs.com/package/nativescript-sse #IOS support coming soon :smile:

The plugin supports Android & IOS now :smile: so @tsonevn or @hshristov you can close this if you want

[terreb]

@triniwiz Unfortunately the plugin doesn't work, at least on iOS. The demo app crashes on connection closing and messages not coming.

Hi @terreb,

In case there are issues related to the plugin you can open issue in the plugins repo
