Realtime Communication (Netflux)

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).
