soketi VS Mercure

In today's article we will focus on one of my favorite trios, we will use the Next.js framework to build the web application, Drizzle to define the database schema and interact with it and perhaps the most important component of this article, Soketi.

Why you’ll love VenturSeed: • We are growing • Get to work with a global team • We all get along really well and have a fun company culture • We offer opportunities for growth https://github.com/soketi/soketi

Did you consider something like Soketi?

I have not used it, but listed Soketi for a while now, to test in the next project where I need a solution like this: https://soketi.app

you can use soketi : https://soketi.app/

Pusher protocol compliant websocket notification server https://soketi.app

Soketi on cloudflare workers should be a nice alternative -> https://soketi.app

Are you aware of things like websockets and mercure.rocks?

It could be implemented with STOMP, or Mercure (goes well with API-Platform, written in PHP/Symfony), you could write your own with the help of nchan and scale it via Redis. If it's a web service, the best practices for operating and scaling are well established, Godot then just becomes another client.

You can try https://mercure.rocks/.

It's worth looking at something like Mercure , which is used by API Platform

Pusher might be one of these systems, Mercure is another one (which you can host yourself). Mercure has good documentation and some examples in various languages, including PHP: https://mercure.rocks/docs/ecosystem/awesome#examples.

You can use Mercure https://mercure.rocks/ , Mercure uses http2.

I actually was thinking about this when I saw https://github.com/dunglas/mercure project to become a Caddy plugin. But I did not find enough reasoning to try this with Centrifugo at that point, and still... Seems awesome from one side - tight integration with a web-server, no extra network between LB and Centrifugo. But will this be useful in practice and find its users? 🤔 That's the question I don't have an answer yet.

Polling is kind of ok (data might change between poll events), but real-time updates are better. So If you don't mind adding an extra service, then take a look at mercure.

Two more questions: - Am I to understand The Guild now recommends GraphQL Yoga over Helix? - Could something like Mercure be included in the recipes ? (this would be a nice solution for serverless)
