Mostly because I'm a VIM + command line type of guy :)

I'm aware there are a slew of plugins/built-ins with IDE's that I didn't cover. As I mentioned in a comment on the post, I think a disclaimer that stated my preference would have helped.

Thanks, and long time no see. Hope things are going well for ya!

I'm interested in the number of people that do the Editor-of-Choice and PyCharm combo. May have to see how the GVIM PyCharm combo would work.

Thanks for the link. It wasn't one that came up when I was searching, but it definitely looks like another solid option. Sticky mode in particular sounds slick.

Thanks for the tip!

Server A has events Server B wants to know about. With REST Hooks, Server A provides an API that Server B use to tell Server A "Please POST notifications about those events to this URL". Then Server B keeps a web server listening for requests to that url. There is no persistent connection.

As for timeouts, check out http://resthooks.org/docs/retries/ for ideas on how those problems can be solved.

The focus is on server-server communication. A client like a web browser would need to use a different approach to get notifications, but there are options in that space besides polling.
