| 17 | + |
| 18 | +Installation |
| 19 | +------------ |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +Add this line to your application's Gemfile: |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +```ruby |
| 24 | +gem 'socketclusterclient' |
| 25 | +``` |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +And then execute: |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | + $ bundle |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +Or install it yourself as: |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | + $ gem install socketclusterclient |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +Usage |
| 36 | +----------- |
| 37 | +Create instance of `Socket` class by passing url of socketcluster-server end-point |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +```ruby |
| 40 | + # Create a socket instance |
| 41 | + socket = ScClient.new('ws://localhost:8000/socketcluster/') |
| 42 | +``` |
| 43 | +**Important Note** : Default url to socketcluster end-point is always *ws://somedomainname.com/socketcluster/*. |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +#### Registering basic listeners |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +- Different functions are given as an argument to register listeners |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +```ruby |
| 50 | + require 'socketclusterclient' |
| 51 | + require 'logger' |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | + logger = Logger.new(STDOUT) |
| 54 | + logger.level = Logger::WARN |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | + on_connect = -> { logger.info('on connect got called') } |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | + on_disconnect = -> { logger.info('on disconnect got called') } |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | + on_connect_error = -> { logger.info('on connect error got called') } |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | + on_set_authentication = lambda do |socket, token| |
| 63 | + logger.info("Token received #{token}") |
| 64 | + socket.set_auth_token(token) |
| 65 | + end |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | + on_authentication = lambda do |socket, is_authenticated| |
| 68 | + logger.info("Authenticated is #{is_authenticated}") |
| 69 | + end |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | + socket = ScClient.new('ws://localhost:8000/socketcluster/') |
| 72 | + socket.set_basic_listener(on_connect, on_disconnect, on_connect_error) |
| 73 | + socket.set_authentication_listener(on_set_authentication, on_authentication) |
| 74 | + socket.connect |
| 75 | +``` |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +#### Connecting to server |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +- For connecting to server |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +```ruby |
| 82 | + # This will send websocket handshake request to socketcluster-server |
| 83 | + socket.connect |
| 84 | +``` |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +- By default reconnection to server is enabled, so to configure delay for connection |
| 87 | + |
| 88 | +```ruby |
| 89 | + # This will set automatic-reconnection to socketcluster-server with delay of 2 seconds and repeat it infinitely |
| 90 | + socket.set_delay(2) |
| 91 | + socket.connect |
| 92 | +``` |
| 93 | + |
| 94 | +- For disabling reconnection to server |
| 95 | + |
| 96 | +```ruby |
| 97 | + # This will disable reconnection to socketcluster-server |
| 98 | + socket.set_reconnection(false) |
| 99 | +``` |
| 100 | + |
| 101 | +Emitting and listening to events |
| 102 | +-------------------------------- |
| 103 | + |
| 104 | +#### Event emitter |
| 105 | + |
| 106 | +- To emit a specified event on the corresponding socketcluster-server. The object sent can be String, Boolean, Long or JSONObject. |
| 107 | + |
| 108 | +```ruby |
| 109 | + # Emit an event |
| 110 | + socket.emit(event_name, message); |
| 111 | + |
| 112 | + socket.emit("chat", "Hi") |
| 113 | +``` |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | +- To emit a specified event with acknowledgement on the corresponding socketcluster-server. The object sent can be String, Boolean, Long or JSONObject. |
| 116 | + |
| 117 | +```ruby |
| 118 | + # Emit an event with acknowledgment |
| 119 | + socket.emitack(event_name, message, ack_emit) |
| 120 | + |
| 121 | + socket.emitack('chat', 'Hello', ack_emit) |
| 122 | + |
| 123 | + ack_emit = lambda do |key, error, object| |
| 124 | + puts "Got ack data => #{object} and error => #{error} and key => #{key}" |
| 125 | + end |
| 126 | +``` |
| 127 | + |
| 128 | +#### Event Listener |
| 129 | + |
| 130 | +- To listen an event from the corresponding socketcluster-server. The object received can be String, Boolean, Long or JSONObject. |
| 131 | + |
| 132 | +```ruby |
| 133 | + # Receive an event |
| 134 | + socket.on(event, message) |
| 135 | + |
| 136 | + socket.on('ping', message) |
| 137 | + |
| 138 | + message = lambda do |key, object| |
| 139 | + puts "Got data => #{object} from key => #{key}" |
| 140 | + end |
| 141 | +``` |
| 142 | + |
| 143 | +- To listen an event from the corresponding socketcluster-server and send the acknowledgment back. The object received can be String, Boolean, Long or JSONObject. |
| 144 | + |
| 145 | +```ruby |
| 146 | + # Receive an event and send the acknowledgement back |
| 147 | + socket.onack(event, message_with_acknowledgment) |
| 148 | + |
| 149 | + socket.onack('ping', ack_message) |
| 150 | + |
| 151 | + ack_message = lambda do |key, object, block_ack_message| |
| 152 | + puts "Got ack data => #{object} from key => #{key}" |
| 153 | + block_ack_message.call('error lorem', 'data ipsum') |
| 154 | + end |
| 155 | +``` |
| 156 | + |
| 157 | +Implementing Pub-Sub via channels |
| 158 | +--------------------------------- |
| 159 | + |
| 160 | +#### Creating a channel |
| 161 | + |
| 162 | +- For creating and subscribing to channels |
| 163 | + |
| 164 | +```ruby |
| 165 | + # Subscribe to channel |
| 166 | + socket.subscribe('yell') |
| 167 | + |
| 168 | + # Subscribe to channel with acknowledgement |
| 169 | + socket.subscribeack('yell', ack_subscribe) |
| 170 | + |
| 171 | + ack_subscribe = lambda do |channel, error, _object| |
| 172 | + puts "Subscribed successfully to channel => #{channel}" if error == '' |
| 173 | + end |
| 174 | +``` |
| 175 | + |
| 176 | +- For getting list of created channels |
| 177 | + |
| 178 | +```ruby |
| 179 | + # Get all subscribed channel |
| 180 | + channels = socket.get_subscribed_channels |
| 181 | +``` |
| 182 | + |
| 183 | +#### Publishing an event on channel |
| 184 | + |
| 185 | +- For publishing an event |
| 186 | + |
| 187 | +```ruby |
| 188 | + # Publish to a channel |
| 189 | + socket.publish('yell', 'Hi') |
| 190 | + |
| 191 | + # Publish to a channel with acknowledgment |
| 192 | + socket.publishack('yell', 'Hi', ack_publish) |
| 193 | + |
| 194 | + ack_publish = lambda do |channel, error, _object| |
| 195 | + puts "Publish sent successfully to channel => #{channel}" if error == '' |
| 196 | + end |
| 197 | +``` |
| 198 | + |
| 199 | +#### Listening to channel |
| 200 | + |
| 201 | +- For listening to a channel event |
| 202 | + |
| 203 | +```ruby |
| 204 | + # Listen to a channel |
| 205 | + socket.onchannel('yell', channel_message) |
| 206 | + |
| 207 | + channel_message = lambda do |key, object| |
| 208 | + puts "Got data => #{object} from key => #{key}" |
| 209 | + end |
| 210 | +``` |
| 211 | + |
| 212 | +#### Un-subscribing to channel |
| 213 | + |
| 214 | +- For unsubscribing to a channel |
| 215 | + |
| 216 | +```ruby |
| 217 | + # Unsubscribe to a channel |
| 218 | + socket.unsubscribe('yell') |
| 219 | + |
| 220 | + # Unsubscribe to a channel with acknowledgement |
| 221 | + socket.unsubscribeack('yell', ack_unsubscribe) |
| 222 | + |
| 223 | + ack_unsubscribe = lambda do |channel, error, _object| |
| 224 | + puts "Unsubscribed to channel => #{channel}" if error == '' |
| 225 | + end |
| 226 | +``` |
