Variable XHRPollingConst

XHRPolling: unknown

Provides a BaseRealtime instance with the ability to establish a connection with the Ably realtime service using the browser’s XMLHttpRequest API.

XHRPolling uses HTTP long polling; that is, it will make a new HTTP request each time a message is received from Ably.

import { BaseRealtime, WebSocketTransport, FetchRequest } from 'ably/modular';
const realtime = new BaseRealtime({ ...options, plugins: { XHRPolling, FetchRequest } });

Provide this plugin if, for example, you wish the client to have an alternative mechanism for connecting to Ably if it’s unable to establish a WebSocket connection.
