Any plans for SocketStream in 2015 ?

[Andrew Seregin]

Hi, all!

First of all, I'd like to say big thanks for core members and all contributers to SS - as it' really great framework!

I looked through this group for roadmap or news, twitter, gitter.im, github - everywhere. Some feature requests like ability to connect from external mobile clients (cordova), moe options for serving static, etc - are really wanted, though now ss is quite stable and I'm successully using it in production for small intranet SPA.

Any news from you, guys, about plans for 2015?

Thanks in advance,

Andrew

arxpoetica: Hi Everyone, I'm closing this issue since we've created a more proactive process for meeting and going over roadmap. If you'd like to be on the roadmap contact list (for meeting times, notes, etc.) go ahead and leave a note here, and we'll figure out how to get contact info, etc.

So, just wait)

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for the compliments.

With regards to plans for SocketStream in 2015, we started a Trello board to track features that we'd like to ship. They are the following:

- Improving documentation (help people to answer the various questions they have)

- Abstract asset bundling, so that you can use different asset bundlers like requirejs and the latest browserify

- Upgrade old dependencies (engine.io, connect) so that SocketStream is up-to-date and can work with other server-side rendering frameworks

- Get the codebase linted

- Get the test code coverage improved, plus more tests

- Make SocketStream's codebase more modular, so that you can use different pieces without having to adopt the entire framework.

There are also other ideas that we've got in mind. If anyone wants access to the Trello board, please ask.

Within the last month, I expanded the core team to include Robert Hall, Henrik Vendelbo, and Joshua "Wylie" Cullick. They've been involved with SocketStream quite a bit over the last few years - building applications, plugins, making updates to documentation - things which I wish I'd done more often but haven't. I'm grateful for their efforts, and we all want SocketStream to progress, so it's right that they be in a position to do that.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Regards,

Paul Jensen

Hi Paul,

great to hear that there is momentum to 'invest' into socketstream further. I welcome the topics you mentioned below. I have another items on my mind:

better control on logging. Some modules (rpc) always log actions.

Hi Klaus,

Thanks, if there's not a Github issue for it, then please feel free to add one. I'll also add a ticket to Trello - if you want access to the board, let me know.

We will have a second planning session about this, but have a look at the updated README to see what is up next.

I will need it to work with Cordova later this year, so I will certainly be pushing/wishing for that.

I think the key plan for 2015 is

• Increase test coverage to at least 80%
• Enable support for newer bundlers like JSPM, Webpack, Browserify 9
• Better handling of users and sessions
• Zero known bugs
• Production happiness
