Package Exports
- cometd
- cometd/cometd
- cometd/cometd.js
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (cometd) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
The CometD Project
Welcome to the CometD Project, a scalable comet (server push) and websocket messaging library for the web.
This repository mirrors the JavaScript sources hosted at the main CometD repository. Those JavaScript sources are not suitable to be consumed with NPM, and are therefore re-arranged in this repository for to make it simpler to use CometD with NPM.
Versions
5.0.x ⇒ based on CometD 5.0.x - minimal ECMAScript 5 (var everywhere)6.0.x ⇒ N/A7.0.x ⇒ based on CometD 7.0.x - minimal ECMAScript 6 (let, const and arrow functions)
Version 6.0.x is not released to NPM since it's identical to 7.0.x.
The 6.0.x numbering exists only because the main CometD project, on the server side, is different from 7.0.x, but on the client side there is no difference.
