Hello all,
I am writing an app to stream log files (or any files) on the browser as they
grow. The idea is that the rails app should do a 'tail -f' on the file and keep
sending the data to the browser. I was thinking if there was any way to achieve
this in rails.
Through googling, I came across the 'streaming' support in rails. But, I didn't
get it working. Here is what I tried
class LogsController < ApplicationController
def index
headers['X-Accel-Buffering'] = 'no'
self.status = 200
self.response_body = Streamer.new
end
end
class Streamer
def each
100000.times do |n|
yield "Streaming...#{n} "
if (n % 1000 == 0)
sleep 1
end
end
end
end
The browser time outs waiting for the data.
Can you please let me know how can I achieve this functionality in rails?
thanks
ravi
