Juggernaut plugin - push data to client without use of publish method?

Hey all,

Juggernaut is a plugin that provides realtime connection between your servers and client browsers. You can literally push data to clients using your web application.

The instructions say to instantiate the Juggernaut object and subscribe to the channel:

  jug = new Juggernaut({ "host": "dev.abcdef.com", "port": 1740 });

jug.subscribe(get_info(report_id), function(data) {

}); function get_info(report_id){   return '/reports/' + report_id + '/new'; }

Now the instructions say in order to send the data to the client, use Juggernaut.publish on the ruby end.

However, I currently look at application and the publish method is not being used anywhere on the rails side. Yet it apparently is sending data to the client. Is there another way to send data to the client that I am overlooking?

thanks for response

Not sure which application you're talking about, but if it's the Holla sample application you must look at the JuggernautObserver class:

I've been working on a project using Juggernaut for some time and although it's not yet in production, Juggernaut have been really great. I highly recommend it!
