# Installation

### MESG SDK

This service requires [MESG SDK](https://github.com/mesg-foundation/engine) to be installed first.

You can install MESG SDK by running the following command or [follow the installation guide](https://docs.mesg.com/guide/start-here/installation.html).

```bash
npm install -g mesg-cli
```

### Deploy the Service

To deploy this service, go to [this service page](https://marketplace.mesg.com/services/com.mesg.pusher) on the [MESG Marketplace](https://marketplace.mesg.com) and click the button "get/buy this service".

# Features

Currently able to use `Pusher` [channels](https://pusher.com/docs/server_api_guide/interact_rest_api#application-channels), [channel](https://pusher.com/docs/server_api_guide/interact_rest_api#channel-information), [trigger](https://pusher.com/docs/server_api_guide/interact_rest_api#publishing-events) and [triggerBatch](https://pusher.com/docs/server_api_guide/interact_rest_api#publishing-batches-of-events) features from `MESG`.

## Use case

`MESG Applications` on different servers communicating together over `Pusher` notifications.

### Example

1. on `MESG Application` on a server `A` : use this `MESG Service` to send notifications over `Pusher`.

2. on `MESG Application` on a server `B` : listen to the notifications emitted by `MESG Application` on a server `A` over `Pusher`.

## How to listen in a `MESG Application`

Install `MESG` and `Pusher` dependencies :

```shell
yarn add mesg-js pusher-js
```

Create a socket connection to listen and react to `Pusher` notifications :

```js
// in a MESG Application
const { application } = require('mesg-js')
const mesg = application()
const Pusher = require('pusher-js')
const pusher = new Pusher('PUSHER_APP_KEY', { cluster: 'PUSHER_CLUSTER', forceTLS: true }) // replace with your credentials
const INSTANCE_HASH = await mesg.resolve('com.mesg.pusher')
const CHANNEL = 'some-channel'
const EVENT = 'some-event'
const CREDENTIALS = { appId: 'PUSHER_APP_ID', key: 'PUSHER_APP_KEY', secret: 'PUSHER_APP_SECRET' } // replace with your credentials
// subscribe to Pusher channel
const channel = pusher.subscribe(CHANNEL)
// on Pusher notification received
channel.bind(EVENT, data => {
// example : launch MESG service trigger task
mesg.executeTask({
instanceHash: INSTANCE_HASH,
taskKey: 'trigger',
inputs: mesg.encodeData({ ...CREDENTIALS, channel: CHANNEL, event: EVENT, ...data })
})
})
```

## Environment variables

Instead of providing Pusher credentials or options on each request, these can be provided via command line arguments or `.env` file, as shown below in [Integration tests](#integration-tests).

As usual, user inputs always takes precedence on defined environment variables.

| **Name** | **Enviroment Variable** |
| --- | --- |
| **appId** | `PUSHER_APP_ID` |
| **cluster** | `PUSHER_CLUSTER` |
| **useTLS** | `PUSHER_USE_TLS` |
| **host** | `PUSHER_HOST` |
| **keepAlive** | `PUSHER_KEEP_ALIVE` |
| **key** | `PUSHER_APP_KEY` |
| **port** | `PUSHER_PORT` |
| **proxy** | `PUSHER_PROXY` |
| **secret** | `PUSHER_APP_SECRET` |
| **timeout** | `PUSHER_TIMEOUT` |

## Integration tests

In order to launch them locally you will have to pass the environment variables along with your command, like so :

* via command line arguments :
```bash
export PUSHER_APP_ID=... && export PUSHER_APP_KEY=... && export PUSHER_APP_SECRET=... && export PUSHER_CLUSTER=... && export MESG_ACCOUNT=... && export MESG_PASSPHRASE=... && yarn test
```
* via `.env` file :
* file
```
export PUSHER_APP_ID=...
export PUSHER_APP_KEY=...
export PUSHER_APP_SECRET=...
export PUSHER_CLUSTER=...
export MESG_ACCOUNT=...
export MESG_PASSPHRASE=...
```
* command
```bash
source .env && yarn test
```
