# lws minimal http Server Side Events + ringbuffer
This demonstates serving both normal content and
content over Server Side Events, where all clients
see the same data via a ringbuffer.
Two separate threads generate content into the
ringbuffer at random intervals.
## build
```
$ cmake . && make
```
## usage
```
$ ./lws-minimal-http-server-sse
[2018/04/20 06:09:56:9974] USER: LWS minimal http Server-Side Events + ring | visit http://localhost:7681
[2018/04/20 06:09:57:0148] NOTICE: Creating Vhost 'default' port 7681, 2 protocols, IPv6 off
```
Visit http://localhost:7681, which connects back to the server using SSE
and displays the incoming data. Connecting from multiple browsers shows
the same content from the server ringbuffer.
