Building a Chat Application With Angular and Spring RSocket

In this post, we will use RSocket protocol to reimplement the chat application.

If you have missed the former posts about implementing the chat application, there is a checklist.

RSocket embraces ReactiveStreams semantics, and Spring provides excellent RSocket support through the existing messaging infrastructure. I have introduced RSocket in my former posts, check here.

In this post, we will use WebSocket as transport protocol which is good for web application. RSocket defines 4 interaction modes, we will use fire-and-forget to send a message to the server side, and request/streams to retrieve messages as an infinite stream from the server.

Create a Message document definition and a Repository for it.

Create a @Controller to handle messages.
