Full List of Demos

Below is the full list of online demos. These demos are not intended to show full-blown applications, but to focus on specific aspects of Lightstreamer with a didactic purpose. For this reason, they are kept extremely simple. All of the demos work without an application server. In other words, they are so simple that they don't need any server-side logic, except for the Lightstreamer Adapters. Even the HTML front-ends are completely static (not generated through JSP, ASP, PHP, etc.).

This demo displays real-time market data for ten stocks, generated by a feed simulator. The front-end code is kept extremely simple and represents a good introduction to Lightstreamer table management. In particular, the client code can be considered as a reference example of item subscriptions in MERGE mode.

Tables involved:

Adapters involved:
  • QUOTE_ADAPTER: a sample Data Adapter generating random market data.
  • LiteralBasedProvider: a sample Metadata Adapter that can be used out-of-the-box for many types of applications.

This demo shows some further features with respect to the Basic Stock-List Demo.

Click on the stock names to open pop-up windows that display real-time streaming charts. Notice that the maximum update frequency set for the pop-up windows is greater than the frequency set for the main window. The data is resampled by Lightstreamer Server according to the maximum frequency requested by each table (you can easily notice that if you open "Ations Europe").

Click on the link under the table (Next/Previous 15) to dynamically switch between two lists of fifteen items, without losing previously opened pop-ups. If you open the same demo in different browser windows, you will see slightly different values for the most updated stocks. Agais, this behavior shows how the data resampling is done in real-time on a per-window basis.

Notice that a large portion of the JavaScript front-end code is devoted to client-side formatting operations.

This demo shows the advanced bandwidth management feature of Lightstreamer.

Use the "Bandwidth Limit" slider to dynamically change the maximum bandwidth. The client will notify the server the new bandwidth and the server will change the update frequency on the fly, to always respect the bandwidth limit. Note that thanks to MERGE mode, the updates are not queued and delayed, but resampled and conflated. In other words, when an item has a chance to be updated (based on a round-robin algorithm), it will receive the very latest state available, not an old one.
You can see that with a bandwidth as ridiculous as 0.5 kilobits per seconds, Lightstreamer is still able to deliver updates to the page, thanks to the very optimized network protocol used.

With the "Highlight Color" slider you can change the background color of the updated cells on the fly (use the red, green and blue handles).

Click on the link under the table (Next/Previous 15) to dynamically switch between two lists of fifteen items and see how the initial snapshot is loaded still respecting the bandwidth limit.

This demo shows how it is possible to build a dynamic "grid" by leveraging some Lightstreamer visual tables (OverwriteTables).

The 30 items of the Stock-List Demo are virtually contained in the grid, but only 5 at a time are displayed. The slider to the right implements a virtual scroll bar. When the table is scrolled, the invisible items are unsubscribed from and the new visible items are subscribed to. To accomplish this, each Lightstreamer table (an OverwriteTable) contains one item only (i.e. each row on the screen is a Lightstreamer table), so that the granularity of subscriptions and unsubscriptions is at the row level.

This technique enables to handle visual grids containing thousands of items with a very low impact on both the client side and the server side.

Notice the use of ScreenTableHelper to optimize the HTML scan.

Tables involved:
  • An OverwriteTable for each visible row, containing 1 item, subscribed to in MERGE mode. So, 5 OverwiteTables are used in this example.

This demo shows the capability of Lightstreamer to plot some simple real-time streaming charts in pure HTML and JavaScript. This feature is also demonstrated in the pop-up windows of the Stock-List Demo. For more sophisticated charts, it is possible to use third-party charting libraries.

In this chart, the prices for two stocks are normalized to 100 and plotted.

Tables involved:
  • An OverwriteTable containing 2 items, subscribed to in MERGE mode.
  • A ChartTable containing 2 items, subscribed to in MERGE mode.

In the Basic Portfolio Demo, a virtual stock portfolio, shared among all the connected users, is displayed.
By using the "Submit Order" panel, you can buy or sell a stock (identified by an item number), filling in the Quantity field and pressing the proper button.
Click on the column headers to sort the table on different columns.
The portfolio table is updated in push mode, for both the columns and the rows (this is the so called "metapush" feature).

This portfolio is shared among all the connected users, so you can connect to this demo from different machines (or try at least different browsers on the same machine), then submit orders from one browser and see the updates displayed on another browser.

The front-end code can be considered a reference example of item subscriptions in COMMAND mode.

Please notice that to keep the code simple, the order submission is done by sending a message to Lightstreamer Server directly. Real applications will usually deliver messages to an application server, which will process them and in turn send them to the proper Lightstreamer Adapters through some messaging middleware (e.g. JMS, RV, etc.).

Tables involved:
  • A DynaMetapushTable containing 1 item, subscribed to in COMMAND mode. Each row of the table is identified by a unique key. For didactic purpose, this example displays the command and key fields, which are usually hidden.

Adapters involved:
  • PORTFOLIO_ADAPTER: a sample Data Adapter that manages a simulated stock portfolio.
  • PortfolioMetadataAdapter: a simple Metadata Adapter that inherits from LiteralBasedProvider. It plays the extra-role of receiving order submissions from the clients and forwarding them to the Data Adapter.

This demo application extends the Basic Portfolio Demo by combining live stock prices (as in the Stock-List Demos) with the portfolio contents.

The columns show: stock name, last price, quantity (number of stocks in the portfolio), countervalue (=price*quantity), time of last price.

The portfolio content is the same as the Basic Portfolio Demo (i.e. it subscribes to the same item from the same Data Adapter) and it is shared among all the connected users. Again, you can connect to this demo from different machines and see your operations propagated everywhere.

The front-end code can be considered a reference example of item subscriptions in COMMAND mode with "two-level push".

The same considerations on the order submission technique as the Basic Portfolio Demo apply.

Tables involved:
  • A MultiDynaMetapushTable containing 1 item, subscribed to in COMMAND mode. Each added row automatically provokes an underlying subscription to a sub-item in MERGE mode, to get the real-time price for that specific stock from another feed (the same as the Stock-List Demos). When a row is deleted, the underlying sub-item is automatically unsubscribed from.

This demo application shows a changeable list of items within a normal HTML drop-down menu. The contents of the list change in real time, based on the commands pushed by the Server.

The feed that controls the list contents is the same as in the Portfolio Demos (i.e. it subscribes to the same item from the same Data Adapter) and it is shared among all the connected users. So, you can see the drop-down menu kept in sync across all the browsers connected to this page.

The front-end code can be considered a reference example of item subscriptions through non-visual tables, useful when the data visualization does not leverage the Lightstreamer widgets, but uses custom HTML code or third-party widgets.

Tables involved:
  • A NonVisualTable containing 1 item, subscribed to in COMMAND mode. Each time the Server sends an "add" or "delete" command, the JavaScript code manipulates the drop-down menu to update its contents.

The Basic Chat Demo implements an extremely simple chat application, where all the users connected to the page can exchange messages. Each message reports the originating IP address, together with the user-agent string of the originating client, instead of leveraging a nick name.

Launch multiple instances of the demo, possibly on different machines, to appreciate the message broadcast capability.

The front-end code can be considered a reference example of item subscriptions in DISTINCT mode.

As in the Portfolio Demos, to keep the example simple and deployable without a web/application server, the message submission is done by sending a message to Lightstreamer Server directly.

Note: When you publish a value your IP address is publicly displayed.

Tables involved:

Adapters involved:
  • CHAT_ROOM: a sample Data Adapter that publishes messages on an item.
  • ChatMetadataAdapter: a simple Metadata Adapter that inherits from LiteralBasedProvider. It plays the extra-role of receiving messages from the clients and forwarding them to the Data Adapter.

The Basic Instant Messenger Demo shows an extremely simple version of a typical messenger, where messages can be delivered to a specific friend, chosen from a dynamic list of online buddies.

Choose a nick-name and click Login. You will see a list of all users connected to this demo, with their nicknames. Write a message and choose a recipient. The message will be delivered only to him/her (rather than broadcasting it, as the Basic Chat Demo does).

Launch multiple instances of the demo, possibly on different machines, to populate the Buddies list. If you use the same nick-name on different instances, you will actually embody the same identity (to keep things simple, no authentication is used).

The front-end code can be considered a reference example of one-to-one messaging. Each user subscribes to their personal item (corresponding to the nick-name), so that messages can be routed properly, instead of begin broadcast (as in the Basic Chat Demo, where all the users subscribe to the same item). In real applications, where authentication is used, the Metadata Adapter should enforce the association between the user's identity and the item they have the right to subscribe to.

As in the Portfolio Demos, to keep the example simple and deployable without a web/application server, the message submission is done by sending a message to Lightstreamer Server directly.

Tables involved:
  • A DynaScrollTable containing 1 item, subscribed to in DISTINCT mode, to get all the personal messages.
  • A DynaMetapushTable containing 1 item, subscribed to in COMMAND mode, to get the updated buddy list.

Adapters involved:
  • SIMPLE_MESSENGER: a sample Data Adapter that manages the personal users' items and the item dedicated to the buddy list.
  • IMMetadataAdapter: a simple Metadata Adapter that inherits from LiteralBasedProvider. It plays the extra-role of receiving messages from the clients and forwarding them to the Data Adapter.

The Round-Trip Demo lets you broadcast messages as yout type, character by character, to all the browsers displaying that page.

Type anything in the 5 fields. Your characters will be delivered to the server, which will send them back to all the browsers, including yours (in the bottom table). Launch multiple instances of the demo, possibly on different browsers or different machines, to really appreciate the broadcast capabilities. You will type some text in a browser and see it appear in real time on another browser.

The table to the bottom reports the originating IP address and the timestamp of the last change applied to each item.

As in the Portfolio Demos, to keep the example simple and deployable without a web/application server, the message submission is done by sending a message to Lightstreamer Server directly.

Note: When you publish a value your IP address is publicly displayed.

In this demo, the data is generated by a feed simulator. Actual feed adapters were created to deliver real data.

Tables involved:
  • An OverwriteTable containing 1 item, subscribed to in MERGE mode, with some of the metrics pertaining to the car.
  • A DynaScrollTable containing 1 item, subscribed to in DISTINCT mode, with the data for each lap.
  • Two ChartTables containing 1 item (the same as the OverwriteTable), subscribed to in MERGE mode, used to plot the speed and the engine RPM.

Adapters involved:
  • FORMULA1_ADAPTER: a Data Adapter that generates random data for the telemetry metrics of the car.
  • LiteralBasedProvider (see Basic Stock-List Demo).

The RSS News Reader Demo is a simple news aggregator that allows the user to subscribe to several RSS feeds and have the news pushed in real-time without refreshing the page or polling the server under the hood.

The demo starts with some feeds already subscribed to. You can add your own feeds or click on "+" to add random feeds.

Tables involved:
  • A DynaScrollTable containing 1 item, subscribed to in DISTINCT mode, containing the news.
  • A DynaMetapushTable containing 1 item, subscribed to in COMMAND mode, containing the list of feeds currently subscribed to.

Adapters involved:
  • RSS_ADAPTER: a Data Adapter that polls all the feeds currently subscribed to and delivers the updates to the Server. It also delivers the list of subscribed feeds for each user.
  • RSSMetadataAdapter: a simple Metadata Adapter that inherits from LiteralBasedProvider. It coordinates, together with the Data Adapter, the association among items, users, and subscribed feed.

A demonstration of simple integration between Lightstreamer and TIBCO General Interface.

In this application, five stock quotes are displayed in real time. The demo page contains two tables, both of which receive the real-time data flow from Lightstreamer Server. The table at the top is managed by the Lightstreamer Web Client, though embedded inside GI. The table at the bottom is a GI table (in which you can drag, resize and sort columns) and is updated by the Lightstreamer Web Client. GI-based pop-up windows show the price charts produced by the Lightstreamer Web Client.

Tables involved:
  • An OverwriteTable containing 5 items, subscribed to in MERGE mode. It is used both as a widget to display the data and as a bridge to inject the data into the GI widget.
  • A ChartTable for each pop-up window opened, containing one item, subscribed to in MERGE mode.

The OpenAjax Hub, a key technology component by OpenAjax Alliance, addresses Ajax application scenarios where a Web application developer needs to use multiple Ajax runtime libraries together within the same application.

This demo was used to pass the OpenAjax Alliance InteropFest 1.0 test case. The Lightstreamer Web client receives real-time events from Lightstreamer Server, displays them through its visual component (OverwriteTable) and publishes them, on the client side, through the Hub. A third-party component (the sample datavis component) subscribes to the events on the Hub and displays them.

FLASH
FLEX
AIR
This very simple demo uses the Flash Bridge to inject real-time data into two Flash movies hosted on the page. Each of the two movies subscribes to two items of the Stock-List Demos. The smaller movie sets a maximum update frequency of 1 event/sec.

The Flash movie uses the ActionScript/JavaScript Bridge provided as part of the "sdk_client_flash_flex(js_bridge)". That means the ActionScript API, used within the Flash application, talk to external JavaScript API, that in turn use the Lightstreamer Web Client API to communicate with Lightstreamer Server.

Tables involved:
  • A FlashTable containing 2 items, subscribed to in MERGE mode, for each Flash movie.

iStreamLight is an open-source Cocoa library that implements the Lightstreamer network protocol. By incorporating this library in an iPhone application, it is possible to develop a native Lightstreamer client for the iPhone quite easily.

The "run the demo" button launches a YouTube video that shows a demo application based on iStreamLight in action. Such demo is publicly available from the repository of the iStreamLight project on Google Code.
