Pomelo javascript websocket client (Nodejs/Multi Client)

The javascript websocket client library for Pomelo.

Since there are two kind connectors in pomelo 0.3, socket.io and socket(websocket), we provide two javascript clients for different usage. websocket client is optimized for data transfer size, the package is compressedin high rate. It's suitable for HTML5 online game, especially mobile platform.

socket.io client is excellent for browser compatibility, the package is in json. It's suitable for online realtime application on browser, like chat, on which browser compatiblity is an important issue.

The apis are almost the same in both clients, except websocket client need a handshake callback for protocol data. Both clients use component package manager for building.

Notice

This fork Works in nodejs. Can't work in a broswer.

Different to origin

• API

  It's hard to write testcases if pomelo-client can only have one client available in a project,especially in an IM / chat project.

  So a new function named 'create' is added,

  var pomelo = pomelo_client.create();

• Typescript definition

  Add index.d.ts for typescript.

---

Usage

install

npm install pomelo-node-client-websocket

create a client

  var pomelo_client = require('pomelo-jsclient-websocket-node');
  var pomelo = pomelo_client.create();

connect to the server

  pomelo.init(params, callback);

params object are

example:

  pomelo.init({
    host: host,
    port: port,
    user: {},
    handshakeCallback : function(){}
  }, function() {
    console.log('success');
  });

user field is user define json content
handshakeCallback field is handshake callback function

send request to server with callback

  pomelo.request(route, msg, callback);

example:

	pomelo.request(route, {
		rid: rid
	}, function(data) {
    console.log(dta);	
	});

send request to server without callback

  pomelo.notify(route, params);

receive message from server

  pomelo.on(route, callback); 

example:

	pomelo.on('onChat', function(data) {
		addMessage(data.from, data.target, data.msg);
		$("#chatHistory").show();
	});

disconnect from server

pomelo.disconnect();
