Hello Alexey, You are correct that Pub/Sub is not a complete replacement to the Channel API, and was recommended as a simple lightweight callback communication alternative. The intended replacement is indeed Firebase.
As you mentioned, Pub/Sub is designed for pre-defined Topic/Subscriptions, and would need to be accessed from a web application using a language like Node.js <https://googlecloudplatform.github.io/google-cloud-node/#/docs/pubsub/0.4.0/pubsub>, rather than embedded JavaScript running from the browser. Of course you can always attempt to access Google APIs via the browser using the Beta JavaScript Client Library <https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/javascript/samples/samples>; simply using the Pub/Sub Discovery URL <https://www.googleapis.com/discovery/v1/apis/pubsub/v1/rest>. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
