## What is django-omnibus

django-omnibus is a Django library which helps to create websocket-based connections between a browser and a server to deliver messages.

Some use cases could be:

• Chat systems

• Realtime stream updates

• Inter-browser communication

• file transfers

• and so on..

django-omnibus is quite extensible. The connection handler, the Tornado web application and the authenticator can be replaced by just changing a setting.

For browser compatibility django-omnibus also supports [SockJS](https://github.com/sockjs/sockjs-client) (which provides fallbacks for older browsers).

On the client side, django-omnibus provides a library which handles the connection, authentication and channel subscription (multiple channels can be subscribed using one connection).
