This commit creates an event emitter that will serve events in real-time to any client listeners from throughout the application. The current infrastructure uses the native
events
module in NodeJS, but future implementation might take advantage of redis for publish/subscribe.Events are cached in a database table
event
, with schema defined in #390. When a new client connects, they can download the previous events sending a GET request to the url/events
. They can subscribe to real-time events by opening an EventSource to/stream
.Closes #390.
