}Description
Server-Sent Events provide a mechanism for timely delivery of server to client events over HTTP and can in some use-cases be more convenient than a similar pattern implemented using Web Sockets and is easier on the network than, for instance, HTTP polling by the client.
This library allows you to consume server sent events in a Raku program in a reasonably idiomatic and reactive fashion.
Installation
Assuming you have a working Rakudo installation then you should be able to
install this with zef :
