13d0f24423 feat: Replace SSE with WebSocket for UI notifications (#36965)
* Closes #36942
* Fixes #19265 

Replaces the SSE-based push channel (`/user/events`) with a WebSocket
endpoint (`/-/ws`).

### What changes

- **New `/-/ws` endpoint** (authenticated). One WebSocket per origin,
shared across tabs via a single `SharedWorker`.
- **Pubsub broker** (`services/pubsub`) for fan-out by topic, behind a
`Broker` interface. `MemoryBroker` is the default (single process); a
Redis backend is available for multi-process setups, configured via
`[websocket].PUBSUB_TYPE` / `PUBSUB_CONN_STR`. The internal Gitea queue
was not usable here because it has FIFO/single-consumer semantics.
- **Push-only event production.** Events are emitted by write-triggered
notifiers — `NotificationCountChange`, `PublishStopwatchesForUser`, and
the logout publisher — wired into the existing `notify.Notifier`
interface. No server-side pollers.
- **Typed pub/sub on the client.** `web_src/js/modules/worker.ts` is a
singleton transport; features subscribe per event type via
`onUserEvent('notification-count', cb)` instead of branching on
`event.data.type`.
- **Wire contract** (`UserEventType` union) is shared between the worker
and consumers via `web_src/js/types.ts`, kept in sync with
`services/websocket/events.go`.
- **Client-side periodic polling fallback** kicks in only when the
WebSocket cannot be established (e.g. proxy blocks WS, browser lacks
module-SharedWorker support).

### What's removed

- `modules/eventsource` (SSE manager, run loop, messenger).
- `/user/events` route and `tests/integration/eventsource_test.go`.
- All server-side polling for stopwatches and notification counts.

### Stopwatch multi-tab fix

The navbar stopwatch icon was previously rendered conditionally on `{{if
$activeStopwatch}}`, so tabs loaded before the timer started had no DOM
element to update. The icon and popup are now always rendered (toggled
with `tw-hidden`), and the start/stop/cancel handlers POST silently so
all open tabs reflect the change in real time.

### Deployment note

WebSocket needs the upgrade headers to pass through a reverse proxy,
e.g. for nginx:

```nginx
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
```

Without them the WebSocket cannot be established, and after 3
consecutive failed opens the shared worker signals `push-unavailable`:
the notification count and stopwatch fall back to periodic polling on
the existing `[ui.notification]` timeouts. Real-time push is lost, the
features keep working. The reverse-proxy docs need the same note (see
the `docs-update-needed` label).

Gitea

繁體中文 | 简体中文

Purpose

The goal of Gitea is to make the easiest, fastest, and most painless way of setting up a self-hosted all-in-one software development service, including Git hosting, code management, code review, issue tracking, project kanban, wiki, team collaboration, package registry and CI/CD which can reuse GitHub Actions.

As Gitea is written in Go, it works across all the platforms and architectures that are supported by Go, including Linux, macOS, FreeBSD/OpenBSD and Windows on x86, amd64, ARM, RISC-V 64 and PowerPC architectures.

For online demonstrations, you can visit demo.gitea.com.

For accessing free Gitea service (with a limited number of repositories), you can visit gitea.com.

To quickly deploy your own dedicated Gitea instance on Gitea Cloud, you can start a free trial at cloud.gitea.com, or use container (docker/podman/etc) to deploy on your own server with the official image.

Documentation

You can find comprehensive documentation on our official documentation website.

It includes installation, administration, usage, development, contributing guides, and more to help you get started and explore all features effectively.

If you have any suggestions or would like to contribute to it, you can visit the documentation repository

Building

See docs/build-setup.md for prerequisites and docs/development.md for setting up a local development environment, linting, and testing.

If you'd like to build from source or make a distribution package, see docs/build-source.md for more information.

After building, you can run ./gitea web to start the server, or ./gitea help to see all available commands.

Contributing

Expected workflow is: Fork -> Patch -> Push -> Pull Request

Note

  1. YOU MUST READ THE CONTRIBUTORS GUIDE BEFORE STARTING TO WORK ON A PULL REQUEST.
  2. New to the codebase? The development guide walks through setting up a local environment and building from source.
  3. If you have found a vulnerability in the project, please write privately to security@gitea.io. Thanks!

Translating

Crowdin

Translations are done through Crowdin. If you want to translate to a new language, ask one of the managers in the Crowdin project to add a new language there.

You can also just create an issue for adding a language or ask on Discord on the #translation channel. If you need context or find some translation issues, you can leave a comment on the string or ask on Discord. For general translation questions there is a section in the docs. Currently a bit empty, but we hope to fill it as questions pop up.

Get more information from documentation.

Official and Third-Party Projects

We provide an official go-sdk, a CLI tool called tea and an action runner for Gitea Action.

We maintain a list of Gitea-related projects at gitea/awesome-gitea, where you can discover more third-party projects, including SDKs, plugins, themes, and more.

Communication

If you have questions that are not covered by the documentation, you can get in contact with us on our Discord server or create a post in the discourse forum.
