pushnote's Introduction

pushnote

pushnote is a simple django plugin for sending push messages from django server to sockjs clients. It internally uses `zeromq`_ and `sockjs-tornado`_. pushnote can send push notifications to all sockjs clients and to subset of this clients.

Requirements:

  1. `pyzmq`_>=2.0
  2. `sockjs-tornado`_>=0.0.5
  3. `django`_>=1.4

GitHub:

https://github.com/dadasoz/pushnote

Installation:

Install pushnote with your favorite Python package manager:

pip install pushnote

Add pushnote to your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'pushnote',
    ...
)

Define PUSHNOTE_MQ_SOCKET in settings.py

PUSHNOTE_MQ_SOCKET = 'tcp://127.0.0.1:8002'

Usage:

Run pushnote forwarder device

pushnote-mq --sub=tcp://127.0.0.1:8002 --pub=tcp://127.0.0.1:8001

Run sockjs-tornado server

pushnote-server --port=8080 --mq_socket=tcp://127.0.0.1:8001 --route=/sockjs --address=''

Alternatively, if you don't need multiple tornado instances support, you can entirely omit pushnote-mq and should pass -S/--single argument to pushnote-server

pushnote-server --single --port=8080 --mq_socket=tcp://127.0.0.1:8002 --route=/sockjs --address=''

Append sockjs client library to your page

<head>
    <script src="http://cdn.sockjs.org/sockjs-0.3.min.js">
    ...

Open page in browser and connect to sockjs-tornado server

conn = new SockJS('http://localhost:8080/sockjs')

Define a callback for incoming messages

conn.onmessage = function (e){ console.log(e.data); };

Send a message from django

from pushnote.pub import notify_all
notify_all({'msg': u'Hi all!'})

and you will see it in js console

Object {msg: "Hi all!"}

Advanced notifications:

You can send notifications to subset of users.

from pushnote.pub import notify
from pushnote.utils import tokenize
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
user = User.objects.get(email='[email protected]')
notify({'msg': u'Hi, %s!' % user.username}, users=[user])
token = tokenize(user)
notify({'msg': u'Hi user with token %s !' % token}, users=[user])

To get this messages you need to subscribe by token

var token = {% pushnote_token %};
SockJS.prototype.emit = function (name, data) { // wrapper around SockJS.send for pushnote's protocol support
    var meta_dict = {
        name:name,
        data:data
    };
    this.send(JSON.stringify(meta_dict))
};
conn = new SockJS('http://localhost:8080/sockjs')
conn.emit('subscribe', {'token': token});
conn.onmessage = function (e){ console.log(e.data); };

{% pushnote_token %} is nothing more than a wrapper around pushnote.utils.tokenize that returns user.id signed with standart django singing mechanism. You can configure you own salt by setting PUSHNOTE_SALT in settings.py. If you need more security, you can provide your own tokenization function. It should accept django User

object and return token. Add path to this function in settings.py .
PUSHNOTE_TOKENIZER = 'pushnote.utils.tokenize'

Conclusions:

  1. pushnote serializes datetime objects with ISO 8601 format. You can parse it on client with `moment.js`_ .
  2. pushnote server can handle client's messages constructed only in some specific way and can't be used for client to client communications.
