Angular 2 spring boot server side events

The Answer from Pratap A.K is great. But to keep it a little bit cleaner, you shoud create a NotificationService which implements a Interface. Like this:

NotificationServiceImpl.java

public class NotificationServiceImpl implements NotificationService {

public static final List<SseEmitter> emitters = Collections.synchronizedList(new ArrayList<>());

@Override
public SseEmitter initSseEmitters() {

    SseEmitter emitter = new SseEmitter();
    emitters.add(emitter);
    emitter.onCompletion(() -> emitters.remove(emitter));

    return emitter;
}

@Override
public void sendSseEventsToUI(WebSource notification) {
    List<SseEmitter> sseEmitterListToRemove = new ArrayList<>();
    this.emitters.forEach((SseEmitter emitter) -> {
        try {
            emitter.send(notification, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
        } catch (IOException e) {
            emitter.complete();
            sseEmitterListToRemove.add(emitter);
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    });
    this.emitters.removeAll(sseEmitterListToRemove);
  }
}

NotificationService.java

public interface NotificationService {

public SseEmitter initSseEmitters();
public void sendSseEventsToUI(WebSource notification);

}

SSEController.java

@RestController
@RequestMapping("/mystream")
public class SSEController {

@Autowired
NotificationServiceImpl INotificationServiceImpl;

@CrossOrigin
@RequestMapping(path = "/streamsource", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public SseEmitter stream() throws IOException {

    return INotificationServiceImpl.initSseEmitters();
  }
}

Have a Spring Rest controller

SseController.java

import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.method.annotation.SseEmitter;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.List;

@RestController
public class SSEController {

    public static final List<SseEmitter> emitters = Collections.synchronizedList( new ArrayList<>());

    @RequestMapping(path = "/stream", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public SseEmitter stream() throws IOException {

        SseEmitter emitter = new SseEmitter();

        emitters.add(emitter);
        emitter.onCompletion(() -> emitters.remove(emitter));

        return emitter;
    }
}

ServiceClass.java

public void sendSseEventsToUI(Notification notification) { //your model class
        List<SseEmitter> sseEmitterListToRemove = new ArrayList<>();
        SSEController.emitters.forEach((SseEmitter emitter) -> {
            try {
                emitter.send(notification, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
            } catch (IOException e) {
                emitter.complete();
                sseEmitterListToRemove.add(emitter);
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        });
        SSEController.emitters.removeAll(sseEmitterListToRemove);
    }

finally in Angular2 component do this

notification.component.ts

import {Component, OnInit} from '@angular/core';

declare let EventSource:any;

@Component({
    selector: 'notification-cmp',
    templateUrl: 'notification.component.html'  
})

export class NotificationComponent implements OnInit {
   connect(): void {
        let source = new EventSource('http://localhost:8080/stream');
        source.addEventListener('message', message => {
            let n: Notification; //need to have this Notification model class in angular2
            n = JSON.parse(message.data);
            console.log(message.data); 
        });
    }
}
