This is a nice list! But seems to be misusing both "real-time " and "event sources" (or I misunderstand the terms) as there doesn't seem to be a way of actually connecting to the sources and receive events as soon as they happen.
Clicked on a few of the sites, some support polling apis but seems most of them don't.
- blondin 7y agohave to agree with you. this is conflating real-time and event sourcing. the latter which is simply a recent pattern people like to talk about. or maybe you are right, we are misunderstanding the usage here...
- todsacerdoti 7y agoThe purpose of the list is to aggregate sources of data that you can connect to and receive events as soon as they happen. If there is one that you believe does not support real time events, then let me know and I will remove it.
- capableweb 7y agoOk, using the first item as an example (http://3taps.com/developers-overview.php http://3taps.com/developers-overview.php). None of their endpoints seems to support SSE, long-polling, streams, websockets, tcp sockets or any other type of "real-time" feeds. But they do have a polling endpoint that you have to hit with GET requests. Does that classify as real-time in your list?
