#jpetdemo : a basic ejpet demo

#What

jpetdemo is a messenging server based on websockets and JSON messenging.

The server is very simple and illustrates how JSON nodes can be routed using ejpet pattern matching mechanism.

#Quickstart Clone

$ cd jpetdemo

Build

$ ./rebar get-deps
$ ./rebar compile

#Use

Point your browser at http://localhost:9000¹.

Open several times the URL to simulate several connected users.

The web UI allows to

• send messages to "rooms"
• subscribe to "rooms"
• subscribe to "topics"

To indicate topics in text messages, use hastag markers # (e.g. #topic)

Footnotes

1. possibly, replace localhost with a specific IP; e.g. if (like me) you are hosting the demo server in a VM. ↩
