> ILP ledger plugin for [five-bells-ledger](https://github.com/interledgerjs/five-bells-ledger)

## Usage

This plugin adheres to the
[Ledger Plugin Interface (LPI)](https://interledger.org/rfcs/0004-ledger-plugin-interface/),
which means it can be used in combination with other components, like the
[ilp module](https://github.com/interledgerjs/ilp#simple-payment-setup-protocol-spsp)
and the [ilp-connector](https://github.com/interledgerjs/ilp-connector#trading).

ILP-Plugin-Bells can also be created via a factory, which allows many instances
to share a single websocket connection.

**Note: this requires an admin account on a ledger. Otherwise the factory can't
listen for events on all accounts.**

```js
const PluginBellsFactory = require('ilp-plugin-bells').Factory

// connects to the admin account and uses one websocket connection to subscribe
// to all transfers and messages on the ledger

const factory = new PluginBellsFactory({
adminUsername: 'admin',
adminPassword: 'admin',
adminAccount: 'https://red.ilpdemo.org/ledger/accounts/admin'
})

factory.connect().then(() => {

// `create` will make a new, connected, PluginBells instance. If a plugin is already
// created for a given username, then the existing plugin is returned from `create`

return factory.create({ username: 'alice' })
// { account: 'https://red.ilpdemo.org/ledger/accounts/alice' } is also valid

}).then((plugin) => {

// this call is uneccesary and will do nothing, because the plugin is already
// connected
plugin.connect()

// neither will this call; the plugin doesn't maintain its own connection,
// so it can't disconnect itself
plugin.disconnect()

// ...

// when you're done using the plugin, call factory.remove in order to
// get rid of all event listeners and stop caching the plugin.

factory.remove('alice')
})
```
