Add basic DDP

[geekgonecrazy]

Current State

• Establishes a connection using a component called <rocketchat-connection>
• Loads 100 Messages from the single room history

Needs Improvement

• I'm browserify + babel to create a ddp.js shim using cli instead of as part of a build process. browserify app/scripts/ddp.js -o app/scripts/iddp.js -t [ babelify --presets [ es2015 ] ]
• Very reliant on gulp. Need to reduce.
• Had to move away from <iron-list> because of the issue listed above. We need something like this for performance. It recycles DOM elements instead of creating new ones. (iron-list does not show all items on bound array change Polymer/polymer#3319 might be related)
• Need to get room message subscription working.
• Needs to get rooms from subscription instead of having to specify them.

Example of component

Currently the component takes room. Like mentioned in the needed improvements it should get this from the server or at least take an array

<rocketchat-connection url="wss://demo.rocket.chat" username="[email protected]" password="superpassword" room="GENERAL" messages="{{messages}}"></rocketchat-connection>

@dandv thoughts on this? Any tips or ideas on structuring this?

Refactored code into stand-alone, re-usable, web components

Add an iot canvas component for all the upcoming Maker Faires around the world early summer.

A special component for the Rocket.Chat on Raspberry Pi (RockOnPi) community.

Displays a PNG and allow "touch zones" to trigger SLASH CMDS sent to bots on a phone.
