Description
Context
ADR-0008 defines Server-Sent Events (SSE) as an optional real-time change notification mechanism for OFREP. The OpenAPI spec PR adds the corresponding eventStreams field to evaluation responses.
The OFREP provider currently does stateless per-request evaluation with no change detection. SSE support would allow the provider to receive real-time notifications when the underlying flag configuration changes and emit PROVIDER_CONFIGURATION_CHANGED events so the host application can react.
Scope
Parse the optional eventStreams array from the POST /ofrep/v1/evaluate/flags/{key} response and connect to any entries with type: "sse". On receiving a refetchEvaluation event, emit a PROVIDER_CONFIGURATION_CHANGED event.
1. Parse eventStreams and manage SSE connections (High)
- On a successful evaluation response, check for an
eventStreamsarray - For each entry with
type: "sse", resolve the connection URL from eitherurlorendpoint.origin + endpoint.requestUri - Ignore entries with unknown types for forward compatibility
- Maintain a single SSE connection (deduplicate across evaluation responses returning the same URL)
2. Handle change events (High)
- On receiving an event with
data.type: "refetchEvaluation", emitPROVIDER_CONFIGURATION_CHANGED - On SSE connection failure, continue reconnection attempts
3. Inactivity timeout (Low)
- Apply an effective
inactivityDelaySec: client override > response value > default120seconds - On timeout, close the connection; on resume, reconnect
