AnyCable

AnyCable allows you to use any WebSocket server (written in any language) as a replacement for your Ruby server (such as Faye, ActionCable, etc).

AnyCable uses the same protocol as ActionCable, so you can use its JavaScript client without any monkey-patching.

Requirements

• Ruby >= 2.4
• Redis (for broadcasting, discuss other options with us!)

Usage

Check out our 📑 Documentation.
