Re: core.async over websocket + cljs + clojure
My priority to work on turning David's codebase into a library changed as I was originally planning to do it for conference presentations in May and June, but for personal reasons I've had to pull out of both conferences. So this is still on my radar but it's moved down my list some way. Sean On Feb 20, 2014, at 5:19 PM, ton...@gmail.com wrote: Anyone come up with anything?

Hi folks, sorry I'm a bit late to the party, but Chord might be a good base for what you want to do?

In CSP you might have a limited size buffer, but then block on the next Put. That's not something you want to casually attempt over a distance.

Re: core.async over websocket + cljs + clojure
What about a hybrid blocking/timeout approach? At the sending end of the network bridge you have the taker and at the receiving end the putter. The putter, when it sees an object on the wire, puts it on a local channel (blocking put with timeout). If it succeeds it sends an ack up the wire. If the timeout elapses it sends a heartbeat up the wire instead, then tries again. The taker, meanwhile, takes from a channel and sends the object on the wire, then waits for an ack or a heartbeat with a longer timeout. If neither arrives within this timeout, it uses another channel to signal the application that the network connection to the putter was lost. If a heartbeat arrives it waits again, with the clock restarted. If an ack arrives, it takes another object from a channel and sends it on the wire. This should cause backpressure to go over the network to the sending end and block the sender, but with the caveat that if the network connection is actually lost, the sender's business logic will discover that shortly, and can distinguish it from the receiver just being slow to process each item. In particular, it can listen for a network drop event on a control channel, and separately use a timeout when putting onto the taker channel to react if the receiver is too slow but still connected.

Re: core.async over websocket + cljs + clojure
I believe the semantics can be simplified as this: * the server (clj) can disconnect at any time * the client (cljs) has the responsibility of (1) informing the user (2) reconnecting (3) figuring out what went wrong in such events I believe this is both necessary and sufficient. It's sufficient in that a dropped network connection can be viewed as server decided to disconnect. It's also necessary in that -- if we want defensive programming and to avoid DOS attacks by malicious clients, it's important for the server to, at some point, say F U client, you're out of tokens; I'm disconnecting you or to say F U client, I can't send data to you; I'm disconnecting you. This is not CSP semantics, but I believe it's both necessary and sufficient for having core.async across the network -- the semantics being * the server can, at any time, arbitrary disconnect a client * it's the client's job to inform the user / try to reconnect On Sat, Jan 25, 2014 at 3:17 PM, Michał Marczyk michal.marc...@gmail.comwrote: If the application is structured in such a way that messages from the other side of the client/server divide are put on channels upon arrival, which seems to be a reasonable idea, why not encapsulate the connection-handling logic in a black box exposing a (bunch of) channel(s)?

This is more or less what the core of David's code does: * the code uses regular core.async channels (on both sides) * both side have the concept of a remote channel (which is associated with a GUID in a registry atom) * a black box on each side takes from remote channels and sends data across the wire (including the channel ID) * that black box also receives data over the wire and puts data onto the appropriate remote channel As far as the application is concerned, it's all just channels - the black box performs relaying of data across the client/server gap for each remote channel. All of the solutions folks have posted so far seem to assume a single channel routed over the client/server transport so I feel comfortable going ahead with library-izing David's code to support multiple channels and, ultimately, multiple transports.

Re: core.async over websocket + cljs + clojure
To be reliable you'd have to introduce addition machinery to account for the hazards of distributed systems, so you're probably better off starting with an abstraction that has those hazards in mind already. The WebSocket (protocol) is the machinery that's handling this. We aren't discussing using CSP to implement the actual network communication. We aren't concerned what happens outside of the edges of the system. Unlike when using actors, with CSP you don't care where a value you took from a channel came from, and similarly you don't care where the value you put onto a channel goes. The channel is only a primitive for conveyance. The application knows nothing of a WebSocket other than what does the put!s and take!s. CSP-like channels aren't a good across-the-wire abstraction. Their blocking semantics are intended to coordinate concurrency within a single runtime. Coordination is possible through the blocking semantics of CSP, but isn't the only mechanism it provides. CSP also facilitates buffered, asynchronous operations. I don't see why it would imply anything about a single runtime.

Re: core.async over websocket + cljs + clojure
We've had something like this working for a while now, though our system uses browserchannel rather than websockets since we need to support older browsers. On the plus side, browserchannel handles some issues already such as managing the state of the connection to the server and retrying when it fails. We also have it connected up to rabbitmq on the server side for server-to-server communication. It's possible for a backend service to broadcast messages right up to multiple connected browsers (e.g. service - web-server-nodes - clients). Not all parts are as generic as we'd like for an open source release, but seeing as people might be interested we'll try to get some pre-release code out somewhat soon.

Ah, what good timing! David Pollak's project Plugh does this, essentially as an implementation detail.
