quickstart

Since cometd is a suite of implementation, in different languages, there is no single quick start guide. Each client and/or server has it's own quick start page. So the generic quick start is:

  • Pick a server implementation and read it's quick start
  • Pick a client implementation and read it's quick start

Note that most server implementation will work with the dojox.cometd client library by default. I may be best to start with that client and then switch to another client once the basics of the server are established.

Note also that currently there is no release of cometd nor any unified build mechanism. Each implementation has it's own build mechanism. An effort is underway to provide a maven project wide build and release process, but currently the top level pom.xml only builds the cometd-java and cometd-jetty modules.
