Doing something wrong? oboe not reacting to streaming data about oboe.js

[jimhigson]

It looks like you are using it right. Your assumptions are correct - Oboe doesn't care about object/array etc ('*' should match either type). Newlines, so long as the JSON remains valid, should be ignored.

That you are using CORS shouldn't have any impact either, at least in Chrome.

All I can think of right now: is your stream gzipped? Perhaps the deflate compressor is holding back transmitting until it gets a certain size of buffer filled. Under Node.js/zlib you can set it to flush like this:

zlib.createGzip({
   flush: zlib.Z_SYNC_FLUSH
})

The integration tests for streamability with CORS are passing against Chrome so I don't think there is a bug in the library.

How big is the response? Could you set up a testcase somewhere?

Since no feedback was provided for several months this issue should be closed (can be reopened as soon as feedback is available @tomorgan)

[jimhigson]

Yes, quite agree. I need to tidy up here and there in the issues section - @ooxi thanks for pointing this out. @tomorgan will be happy to investigate when more info can be provided.
