This patch makes backend and UI changes to implement the asynchronous UI notification in WoK.
- Backend:
A push server was implemented from scratch to manage the opened websocket connections. The push server connects to the /run/user/<user_id>/woknotifications UNIX socket and broadcasts all messages to all connections.
The websocket module is the same module that exists in the Kimchi plug-in. The idea is to remove the module from Kimchi and make it use the module from WoK. ws_proxy initialization was also added in src/wok/server.py.
A change were made in Wok base control classes to allow every call of log_request to also send a websocket notification in the following format:
<METHOD>:/<plugin>/<entity>/<action>
For example, creating a new user in Ginger would trigger the following websocket notification:
'POST:/ginger/users'
- Frontend:
In ui/js/wok.main.js two new functions were added to help the usage of asynchronous notifications in the frontend. The idea: a single websocket is opened per session. This opened websocket will broadcast all incoming messages to all listeners registered. Listeners can be added by the new wok.addNotificationListener() method. This method will clean up any registered listener by itself when the user changes tabs/URL.
The single websocket sends heartbeats to the backend side each 30 seconds. No reply from the backend is issued or expected. This heartbeat is just a way to ensure that the browser does not close the connection due to inactivity. This behavior varies from browser to browser but this 30 second heartbeat is more than enough to ensure that the websocket is kept alive.
- Working example in User Log:
A simple usage is provided in this patch. Changes were made in the UI of the User Log feature to refresh the listing each time a new log entry websocket notification is received. The idea is to allow this code to be a working example of how other tabs can consume the asynchronous notifications.

I am not sure I understood this code correctly. From what I had in mind wok.notificationListeners should be an dict instead of an array. In which the key is the notification message and the value the functions to be executed on message received.
wok.notificationListeners = {}
When adding a new listener, we would do:
wok.notificationListeners[<msg>] = <func-to-handle-msg>
That way, we avoid calling each wok.notificationListeners sending the same message to listeners not related to that message.
To call the listener, we do:
func = wok.notificationListeners.get(<message>) if func != undefined: #call func func()
The idea was to make it generic. Every message would be forwarded to all functions that is currently listening to websocket events. The job of filtering what you want would be done inside each listener itself.
This allows for multiple listeners being able to receive the same message. Otherwise, suppose that in the same tab we have multiple independent features (like Ginger with sidebar), common interest messages like "WoK is going to be reloaded" or "A task of id=N has been finished" would be captured by only one of them.
Also thinking about the Ginger scenario, the $(window).one("hashchange") will not work So it is better to check the function is defined or not. func_list = wok.listenerNotification[<msg>] if func_list: for func in func_list: if func != undefined: #call func
So do a list of functions to be called.
wok.listenerNotifications[<msg>] = [<list of listener>]
Doesn't make sense forward all the messgaes to all the listener. The listener should be trciked by a message.

All the above block is not needed when you follow what I described above, as this function would only be called when POST:/wok/logs
Yes, if we restrict the messages to just be received by one listener this filtering is unnecessary.
