Can I get now-data via API?

Re: Can I get now-data via API?
If you look at the javascript for the interface pages, you'll see how they get their data. The 'dashboard', 'now', and 'gauges' get their data using web sockets - they make a web socket connection to MX, and then MX 'pushes' the data every 3 seconds. The other pages fetch their data using ajax.

Thanks, I figured that.
The only problem is that my app doesn't seem to handle web sockets, only HTTP GET, any chance of getting that?

Not at the moment for the 'now' data, but quite likely in the future as I expand the API.
