SocketCluster JavaScript Client
======
SocketCluster Client is the client-side component of SocketCluster.
## Usage Overview
* [How to use](https://github.com/SocketCluster/socketcluster-client#how-to-use)
* [Connect Options](https://github.com/SocketCluster/socketcluster-client#connect-options)
* [Events](https://github.com/SocketCluster/socketcluster-client#events)
* [Developing](https://github.com/SocketCluster/socketcluster-client#developing)
To install, run:
```bash
npm install socketcluster-client-edge
```
The socketcluster-client-edge script is called socketcluster.js (located in the main socketcluster-client-edge directory)
- You should include it in your HTML page using a <script> tag in order to interact with SocketCluster.
To build SocketCluster Client with browserify, use:
```
browserify -s socketCluster index.js > socketcluster.js
```
## How to use
The socketcluster-client script is called `socketcluster.js` (located in the main socketcluster-client directory).
Embed it in your HTML page like that:
```html
```
- Note that the src attribute may be different depending on how you setup your HTTP server
Once you have embedded the client socketcluster.js into your page, you will gain access to a global socketCluster object.
Then, to begin interacting with the SocketCluster cluster, you will need to establish a connection.
Once that's done, you will be able to emit events to the server and listen to incoming events (example code):
```js
var options = {
port: 8000
};
// Initiate the connection to the server
var socket = socketCluster.create(options);
socket.on('connect', function () {
console.log('CONNECTED');
});
// Listen to an event called 'rand' from the server
socket.on('rand', function (num) {
console.log('RANDOM: ' + num);
var curHTML = document.body.innerHTML;
curHTML += 'RANDOM: ' + num + '
';
document.body.innerHTML = curHTML;
});
```
Example with HTTPS:
```js
var options = {
hostname: 'securedomain.com',
secure: true,
port: 443,
rejectUnauthorized: false // Only necessary during debug if using a self-signed certificate
};
// Initiate the connection to the server
var socket = socketCluster.create(options);
```
## Connect Options
See all available options : https://socketcluster.io/#!/docs/api-socketcluster-client
```js
var options = {
path: '/socketcluster/',
port: 8000,
hostname: '127.0.0.1',
autoConnect: true,
secure: false,
rejectUnauthorized: false,
connectTimeout: 10000, //milliseconds
ackTimeout: 10000, //milliseconds
channelPrefix: null,
disconnectOnUnload: true,
multiplex: true,
autoReconnectOptions: {
initialDelay: 10000, //milliseconds
randomness: 10000, //milliseconds
multiplier: 1.5, //decimal
maxDelay: 60000 //milliseconds
},
authEngine: null,
codecEngine: null,
subscriptionRetryOptions: {},
query: {
yourparam: 'hello'
}
};
```
## Events
```js
socket.on('subscribe', function(channelname) {
console.log('subscribe:' + channelname);
});
socket.on('subscribeFail', function(channelname) {
console.log('subscribeFail:' + channelname);
});
socket.on('unsubscribe', function(channelname) {
console.log('unsubscribe:' + channelname);
});
socket.on('subscribeStateChange', function(data) {
console.log('subscribeStateChange:' + JSON.stringify(data));
});
socket.on('message', function(data) {
console.log('message:' + data);
});
```
## Developing
#### Install all dependencies
```bash
cd socketcluster-client
npm install -g gulp gulp-cli browserify uglify-js
npm install
```
#### Building
#### Via Browserify
To build SocketCluster Client with browserify, use:
```bash
./browserify-build.sh
```
Or use
```bash
browserify -s socketCluster index.js > socketcluster.js && uglifyjs socketcluster.js -o socketcluster.min.js
```
#### Via Gulp
To build SocketCluster Client with Gulp, use:
```bash
./gulp-build.sh
```
