# Fluid socket

*Package to create socket events dynamically and at high level.*

> The purpose of the package is to allow you to work with socketIO in a
> "fluent" (humanized) way

## How to install

```
npm i fluidsocket --s
```

## Sumary

1. [How we solve the problem](#how-we-solve-the-problem)
2. [Namespace guards](#namespace-guards)
3. [Events Guards](#events-guards)
4. [Event Action](#event-action)
5. [Actions making mistakes](#actions-making-mistakes)
6. [After the events](#after-the-events)

## How we solve the problem

No longer use your traditional code

```javascript
const io = require('socket.io').listen(3000)

io
.of('/admin')
.on('connection', (client) => {
client.on('user.create', data => {
//code...
})

client.on('user.update', data => {
//code...
})
})
```


Now you can use our way

```javascript
const { initializeSocket } = require('fluidsocket')
const fluidSocket = initializeSocket(io)

const options = {
"admin": {
"listeners": {
"user": {
"create": {
"action": userService.create()
},

"update": {
"action": userService.update()
}
}
}
}
}

fluidSocket(options)
```

## Namespace guards
*We constantly need to put a guard before releasing a new connection or even assign data in connection with the client.*

When it is your case, simply add the guard in the **guards attribute**.

```javascript
{
"admin": {
"listeners": {
//...
},
"guards": [
isAdmin()
]
}
}
```

The namespace guard function is given two parameters ***client and next***

| client | next |
|--|--|
| It is the object of the connection with the client, **you can add new attributes** in this object and redeem at any moment in the events. | If you want to authorize the passage through that guard, just invoke the **next function** |

***Namespace Guard Example***

```javascript
const isAdmin = () => {
return (client, next) => {
client.isAdmin = true

return next()
}
}
```

## Events
*You will always use one or more events while working with socket, our idea is just to facilitate this.*

## ***Events Guards***

The events also have guards and the purpose is to check if the data issued conforms to **the rule(s) of the guard(s)**.

When it is your case, simply add the guard in the **guards attribute**.

```javascript
{
"admin": {
"user": {
"create": {
"action": userService.create(),
"guards": [
ifUsernameNotExists()
]
},
}
}
}
```

***Example***

> The guard may even remember the middleware, but it has the power to issue errors in real time.
> > To learn more about emitting errors, click here.

```javascript
const ifUsernameNotExists = () => client => async (data, next) => {
const { username } = data

const hasUsername = await userCollection.hasUsername(username)

return (!hasUsername)
? next()
: client
.emit('customError', {
"message": "username already registered."
})
}
```

## ***Event action***
The action is where you will carry out the business rule, remembering that it is mandatory to return a value, only so we will be able to issue after the execution.

**Example**
The data issued by the client can be retrieved in the body attribute.

```javascript
async create({ body }) {
const userCreated = await userCollection.create(body)

return userCreated
}
```

It is also possible to signal that you want to issue error, even through actions.

## Actions making mistakes
Several times we will need to validate at runtime whether it is necessary to issue errors to the client ~~(and will often be necessary)~~.

*To signal that an error needs to be issued to the customer, you simply need to use the throw statement*

**Example**

```javascript
async buy({ body, userDocument }) {
const hasCredits = userDocument.hasCredits(200)

// is false
if (!hasCredits) throw creditsException()

//...
}
```

A ***customError*** event will be issued automatically.
To receive this event on your customer just listen to the event.

```javascript
...
.on('customError', (error) => console.log(error))
```

## After the events
After completing an action it is interesting to issue the result to the customers.

> It is necessary to always return a value of the executed action.

To use it is quite simple, just add the events that will be issued on the property after
```javascript
{
"admin": {
"user": {
"create": {
"action": userService.create(),
"after": [
userNamespaceAdmin.created()
],
"guards": [
ifUsernameNotExists()
]
}
}
}
}
```

**Building an event**
Events are separated into 3 categories

| primary | myNamespace | secondary |
|--|--| -- |
| The event will be in this category, when you want to send to the **sending client** or to **ALL other clients of the namespace, except to the sender**. | The event will be in this category, when you want to send to **all clients of the namespace**, including to the sending client. | The event will be in this category, when you want to send **to all clients in another namespace**. |

All categories are given two parameters, the issuer and the result of the action.

**Primary**
```javascript
const { eventPrimary } = require('fluidsocket')

module.exports = {
created() {
return eventPrimary((client, result) => {
return client.emit('success', result)
})
}
}
```

**My Namespace**
```javascript
const { eventMyNamespace } = require('fluidsocket')

module.exports = {
created() {
return eventMyNamespace((io, result) => {
return io.emit('success', result)
})
}
}
```

**Secondary**
```javascript
const { eventSecondary } = require('fluidsocket')

module.exports = {
created() {
return eventSecondary((io, result) => {
return io
.of('/player')
.emit('success', result)
})
}
}
```
