The new Netflux module provides support for real-time WebSocket-based communication in XWiki by offering:
- a script service and a REST resource to help create and retrieve communication channels.
- a WebSocket server end-point used to join channels and to exchange channel or direct user messages.
This can be used along with the Netflux Client to implement realtime-enabled extensions on top of XWiki (e.g. a chat application).
