ChangeStream not firing any update on Angularjs

[Paolo Sinelli]

I'm using Angular Live Set in my application, but despite using the code provided in the demo, I am not receiving any event in my controller.

var changeStreamUrl = '/api/todo/change-stream?_format=event-source';
var src = new EventSource(changeStreamUrl);
var changes = createChangeStream(src);

changes.on('data', function (update) {
  console.log('new data');
});

changes.on('error', function (update) {
  console.log('error data');
});

changes.on('end', function (update) {
  console.log('end data');
});

I think the problem could be the server not emitting any event: how can I debug what's wrong with the endpoint?

check your middleware.json file in the server dir.

remove: ""compression": {},"

There seems to be an issue with compression.  I though a fix had been pushed or the README updated.

try it and see if it helps.

Thanks Sean, this fixed the problem.
The only reference I found about compression is in the realtime server events documentation but it doesn't mention you need to remove the entire line for it to work.

BTW, it works now.
Thanks.
