@Lepozepo?

[Lepozepo]

Damn, I'm not sure I'm skilled enough to maintain the project properly but the package that is up on atmosphere right now works as advertised as far as I have used it O_O. I am 100% ok with maintaining it to the best of my knowledge though ^_^

[ghost]

meteor add arunoda:streams

[rclai]

That's weird, how come arunoda:streams is not in AtmostphereJS.com?

[ghost]

not sure, just read somewhere that if you want to use meteorite packges with meteor v.1 and above. just add username in front .

[matteodem]

what's up with this? I'd like to use this package in a project soonish.

[rclai]

You can still install it using meteor add arunoda:streams, I was saying it was weird it wasn't on Atmosphere. It does work fine in 1.0.

@arunoda I think a public announcement for maintainers is the best thing for this project. It looks like a great tool

[alexzaporozhets]

Any update on this issue?

[ncubica]

This is really great project I'm being using it does anybody knows if somebody is keeping maintaining this or have a fork?

[Lepozepo]

Hi @ncubica, I have a fork of this project that seems to work but I haven't reviewed the code in a while. Look for lepozepo:streams in atmosphere. ^_^ If there are any issues let me know and I'll try to get to them as soon as I get a chance.

[rhyslbw]

Also check out https://github.com/raix/Meteor-EventDDP. There's an open PR for server to server

[cguinnup]

Shouldn't the inactive status be referenced on the project documentation website? Googling "meteor websockets" still lists http://arunoda.github.io/meteor-streams/ in the top results.

It's quite sad that this repo is not maintained anymore. Are there any better alternatives?

I really like the blackboard app built on top of it, and the ebook still does not mention that this package is deprecated.

[mitar]

I think the best would be to get this in the core: meteor/meteor#5645

[derwaldgeist]

@mitar Yes, definitely. But as long as this has not happened, I would love to see any alternative.

[mitar]

I think the future is to replace Websockets with WebRTC and then we can have native support for data streams and this package would not really be needed anymore. I wrote those ideas here.

[derwaldgeist]

Yes, I was thinking about this myself, because I am already using WebRTC for video transmission. The problem is that WebRTC is not supported in many browsers. I can use it, because my main target is mobile - and there I can use Cordova plugins for achieving this. But on the web, I am restricted to Chrome and Firefox at the moment.

[mitar]

Yes, but I think the main mental shift is to see server simply as another WebRTC peer. Then everything becomes much simpler to think. :-)

[derwaldgeist]

Yes, definitely! It would be great if this would be added. A peer-to-peer data channel would be awesome. May I ask which WebRTC backend service you are using at the moment in combination with Meteor? I am using OpenTok at the moment, since there was a Cordova plugin for it, but that plugin is unmaintained and rather buggy. I would also prefer a service that is not charging on a per-minute basis. Or did you set your servers up yourself?

[mitar]

I tend to set up the servers myself. By I do not use WebRTC because I needed server-side MediaStream support which I have not found (at least not in an open source implementation).

[derwaldgeist]

Ok, thanks.
