How to properly organize deamon in an angular application?

Question

JavaScript

Hello, there is a task to write a message module in the project. As a backend - php (yii2), and on the frontend parts of angular (dynamic pages). In messages, you need to check for new messages approximately every 20-30 seconds. What is the best way to organize this daemon in angular? Thank you.

Answer 1

You make a service, shove $http.get inside, as soon as get is completed, after a timeout you start the next one.
When processing data from get, you throw out a notification of new messages through the scope. The task is the most trivial.

Answer 2

sockets

Answer 3

long polling is the best solution if you don't want to use sockets.
I did a similar task, but only with ZF2. It is not difficult to implement.
