Fastify SSE Plugin

CI check npm version

Fastify plugin for sending Server-sent events.

For fastify@2.x use fastify-sse-v2@1.x!

How to use?

yarn add fastify-sse-v2

Register fastify-sse-v2 plugin into your fastify instance:

import {FastifySSEPlugin} from "fastify-sse-v2";

const server = fastify();
server.register(FastifySSEPlugin);

Sending events from AsyncIterable source

import {FastifySSEPlugin} from "fastify-sse-v2";

const server = fastify();
server.register(FastifySSEPlugin);

server.get("/", function (req, res) {
    res.sse((async function * source () {
          for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
            sleep(2000);
            yield {id: String(i), data: "Some message"};
          }
    })());
});

Sending individual events

import {FastifySSEPlugin} from "fastify-sse-v2";

const server = fastify();
server.register(FastifySSEPlugin);

server.get("/", async function (req, res) {
    for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
      await sleep(2000);
      res.sse({id: String(i), data: "Some message"});
    }
});

fastify.get('/listenForChanges', {}, (request, reply) => {
    const listenStream = fastify.db.watch('doc-uuid')
        .on('data', (data)=>reply.sse({ data: JSON.stringify(data) }))
        .on('delete', () => reply.sse({ event: 'close' }))
    request.socket.on('close', ()=>listenStream.end())
})
Sending events from EventEmmiters
import {FastifySSEPlugin} from "fastify-sse-v2";
import {on} from "events";

const server = fastify();
server.register(FastifySSEPlugin);

server.get("/", function (req, res) {
    res.sse(
  (async function* () {
    for await (const [event] of on(eventEmmitter, "update")) {
      yield {
        type: event.name,
        data: JSON.stringify(event),
      };
    }
  })()
);
});
