Description: Replace the current polling mechanism with WebSocket connections to provide real-time updates, reducing unnecessary API calls and improving overall application efficiency.
-
Solution:
- Set up a WebSocket server using a library like Socket.IO on the backend.
- Modify the frontend to establish and maintain a WebSocket connection.
- Update the server to emit events when data changes.
- Implement listeners on the client-side to handle these events and update the UI accordingly.
-
Benefits:
- Reduced server load by eliminating frequent polling.
- Improved real-time user experience with instant updates.
- Decreased network traffic and lower latency.
- Better scalability for handling a large number of concurrent users.
-
Note: This change will require modifications to both the backend and frontend. Ensure proper error handling and reconnection logic for a robust implementation. Also, consider implementing a fallback mechanism to polling for browsers that don't support WebSockets.
