The client and server part of the WebSockets extension to Zinc HTTP Components already supports similar functionality, so this is certainly doable. Unless you can give me a public end point to test, I can only write some untested pseudo code. | client reader | client := ZnClient new. client url: 'https://stream-mystreamingsite.com/stream?query=whatIwant'. client streaming: true. client headerAt: 'Authorization' put: 'xxx'. client get. reader := NeoJSONReader on: (ZnCharacterReadStream on: client contents). [ reader atEnd] whileFalse: [ reader next ]. reader close. client close. Be sure to tell us how you got it working. HTH, Sven
