Hi.

I found the nginx_push_module recently and I'm trying to find if it can
fill my needs.
It is really fantastic when 1 user subscribe to 1 stream.

But, can someone tell me if there is a way for one user to subscribe
with one request to many channel ?
I don't think because in the activity http response, there is no header
with he channel id to distinguish responses :

GET /activity?id=2 HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: curl/7.19.7 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.19.7
OpenSSL/0.9.8k zlib/1.2.3.3 libidn/1.15
Host: 127.0.0.1:8080
Accept: */*


HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/0.7.67
Date: Wed, 30 Jun 2010 08:34:50 GMT
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: 4
Last-Modified: Wed, 30 Jun 2010 08:34:01 GMT
Connection: keep-alive
Etag: 0
Vary: If-None-Match, If-Modified-Since

test

I suppose that a header like
Channel-id: 2
wouldn't be hard to add but would it be hard to allow to subscribe with
a request like
GET /activity?id=1&id=3&id=36...
?

I'm trying to use nginx on a mobile application where users can
subscribe to many, many streams.
But I don't wan't, if I can, to make a channel per user and I don't
wan't each user to have as many request pending as subscribed channels ...

A channel per user would be possible but
- I must keep on server side which user subscribed to which channel
- I must handle case where users does not exist anymore to stop wasting
time trying to send them data ...


Any idea of how I can accomplish this actually ?
Maybe I missed something ?


Thanks anyway for this module !
