Streaming

[remexre]

Currently, it looks like the player requires the entirety of the screencast to be available; I'd like to use this for real-time streaming, though.

Would it be plausible possible to add a streaming API, to allow appending to the screencast loaded by an element? I'd likely be hooking this up to either an EventSource or WebSocket.

Definitely! I'm working on the next generation of the player, and one of the goals there is to have easy streaming capability (with both EventSource and WebSocket options).

There appears to be an EventSource Source implemented, is it possible to use this implementation instead of Recording, via the type option (which defaults to asciicast currently)?

How is this going? I would be happy to help if it is simple enough.

I'll be receiving a handful of different events over websocket and am looking for a way to send the asciinema lines to the player.

I came here after looking for something similar and seeing this blog post which describes streaming compatability of new file format with net at example
