Rejax
APIReverse AJAX service for real-time client notifications
Overview
Rejax is a Reverse AJAX (Comet) service enabling servers to push real-time updates to clients without constant polling. Key endpoints include /subscribe (join a message channel), /publish (send data to subscribed clients), and /webhook (trigger notifications via external events). Responses are JSON-formatted, compatible with web/mobile clients. Use cases: real-time chat apps, live dashboard updates, collaborative tool alerts, e-commerce order notifications, and instant content sync. It eliminates the need to manage complex server-side push infrastructure, simplifying interactive feature development.
