Anyone has successfully configured node-red to read a web server that uses SSE?  
The http in node down't read the events but just the static html page.  
I'm trying to read the sensor data from this example:

You can try [node-red-contrib-sse-client](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-sse-client)

Of course, most of us use MQTT rather than SSE.
