InheritanceServerPushController Inheritance flash.events.EventDispatcher

This controller adds support for receiving messages from servers capable of pushing messages, e.g. Juggernaut.

First, install Juggernaut as described here: http://juggernaut.rubyforge.org/

Second, you need to set up ServerPushController


Example
You can initialize ServerPushController in your application like so 
   private var c:ServerPushController;
      private function init():void {
     Rx.enableLogging();
     ApplicationController.initialize();
     c = new ServerPushController("localhost", 5001);
     c.addEventListener(ServerPushEvent.ID, onServerPush);
   }
      private function onServerPush(event:ServerPushEvent):void {
     trace("message:" + event.message);
   }
You can push plain-text messages, XML/JSON formatted messages or anything else that can be pushed with Juggernaut. If you are pushing XML/JSON you can then optionally unmarshall and cache your server pushed objects.

Unmarshalling messages from the server 
   private function onServerPush(event:ServerPushEvent):void {
     var unmarshalled:RxModel = Rx.serializers.xml.unmarshall(event.message)
      as RxModel;
     Rx.models.cache.create(unmarshalled); 
   }
Lastly, you need to start the juggernaut server and push some messages to try this out.

Starting juggernaut server 
      juggernaut -c config/juggernaut.yml
You can then navigate the app at http://localhost:3000 and push messages from the server or console.

Pushing messages 
    Juggernaut.send_to_all("hello from the server")
