Server push ajax

[psychok7]

hi, i have to implement  a Server push with django for a school project. my friend said that its very hard to make it work, that the software around is still buggy and all.

it that true? can you guide me to a easy way to implement this that works without any problems or workarounds?

i am still new to django and i dont have a lot of time so if you guys tell me its gonna take a lot of time ill probably switch to java or so

what about websockets?? are they better and easier to implement than ajax or not?

Have you done your research, eg by googling for appropriate existing
technology. I'd start with "Django pub sub".

Cheers

Tom

i have searched for ajax before and found very "divergente" comments (most of them being related to updates and stuff) so thats why i am asking here, i suposed you guys know better and can guide me towards the right way

PS: django-pubsub could work for wht i need, but i didnt see any ajax or websockets in the description though

ok so basically i have to develop a game, using django server and javascript for the client. i want the django server to update all the connected clients thats the state of the game has change.. thats why i need my server to push the info the all the clients when he needs to

i found  django-push server  and  django-push

can anyone tell me if they are very differente, and wich one is easier (and good) to use?

The vague, open-ended nature of your questions gives me the impression
that you are trying to get the group to do most of the hard work for
you.

Tom's suggestion is right - Pubsub definitely sounds like the way to
go for your project. The TCP protocol doesn't make any specific
reference to AJAX either, but AJAX works rather well over it
nonetheless :-)

As for the two Django packages - download and install them, try them
out, see which one fits your needs best. If you have a specific
problem with one of them and need some assistance, I'm sure people on
this list (or StackOverflow) will be happy to help.

i read and tried to implement all of them with no luck then (mostly dependencies problems)

anyways i noticed i need a diferent server to try them, (with comet support in one case) and im not sure wich one is djangos default, but this one doesnt say anything about "other" servers https://bitbucket.org/cellarosi/django-push 

anyone used this one before? (i havent got it working yet though)

[psychok7]

forget it thats an alpha version just noticed now.

ill give it a go with the servers..

they replace djangos default server ?? or its an addon?
