I'm having some trouble trying to stream data to my plot.ly

I am able to post messages that get recorded into the stream
live, although right after curl uploads it, it just seems to
wait for a response it's not getting, and eventually timeouts.
Does anyone have any advice?
auto client = HTTP("stream.plot.ly");
client.addRequestHeader("plotly-streamtoken","e8bg6omat6");
client.verbose = true;
string msg = "{ \"x\": 500, \"y\": 500 } \n";
client.postData(msg);
client.perform;
You have to define a handler for HTTP.onReceive before calling
HTTP.perform. It will receive ubyte arrays for each packet that
comes in. For most purposes, you just copy that onto the end of a
string in an external scope. But if you're streaming content,
you'll need to do something more fancy.
