I have tried to google but all i find related to these topics are nodejs and socket.io
which is fine. but problem i am facing is nodejs
does not work in shared hosting.
I want to know any way i can have real time notifications in Codeigniter while i can still use shared hosting services. I Don't have much budget to go for VPS. i want to do it for learning purposes right now.
I have seen Ratchet but still could not find any documentation for it to use with Codeigniter.

UPDATE :
I don't know how, but someone made it possible to use nodejs on shared hosting with PHP.. I have not yet tried it, but gonna try it now :)
feels promising as there is a demo too of it.
Kinda of a library. https://github.com/niutech/node.php
I had something similar to know for a project, I found a simple solution: Ajax (Jquery Ajax). You can make ajax requests at regular interval.
A specific scenario would be notification of messages in inbox. Right now, i have 2 new messages in my inbox. Every 4 seconds, i make an ajax call. There i check if there is a new message. If yes, it would be 3 new messages. I return two values: number of messages, isChanged.
Using jquery, if isChanged is true, i update the html, else, i do nothing.
This is just a simple scenario to show you how ajax can be used for notifications.
