Description

  Netly syntax was updated... Code below!

  #OLD
  
  # instance
  TcpClient <instance> = new TcpClient(...);
  TcpServer <instance> = new TcpServer(...);
  UdpClient <instance> = new UdpClient(...);
  UdpServer <instance> = new UdpServer(...);
  
  # propriety
  <value> = <instance>.IsOpened;
  <value> = <instance>.Host;
  
  # invokes
  <instance>.Open(...);
  <instance>.Close(...);
  
  # callbacks
  <instance>.On<...>((...) => { ... });
  <instance>.OnData((...) =>  { ... }); 
  <instance>.OnOpen(() => { ... }); 

  #NEW
  
  # instance
  TCP.Client <instance> = new TCP.Client(...);

  UDP.Client <instance> = new UDP.Client(...);
  UDP.Server <instance> = new UDP.Server(...);

  <instance>.On.Data((...) =>  { ... }); 
  <instance>.On.Open(() => { ... }); 

  # OLD
  
  bytes[] <value> = NE.GetBytes("hello world", NE.Mode.UTF8);
  string[] <value> = NE.GetString(new byte[]{ 1, 2, 3 }, NE.Mode.UTF8);

  # NEW
  using Byter;
  
  bytes[] <value> = "hello world".GetBytes();
  bytes[] <value> = "hello world".GetBytes(Encoding.UTF8);
  string[] <value> = new byte[] { 1, 2, 3 }.GetString();
  string[] <value> = new byte[] { 1, 2, 3 }.GetString(Encoding.UTF8);

• HTTP

  • Server (HTTP & WebSocket)

    HTTP.Server server  = new HTTP.Server();
    
    # callbacks
    server.On.Open(() => { ... });
    server.On.Error((exception) => { ... });
    server.On.Close(() => { ... });
    
    # map http method routes
    server.Map.Get("/", (request, response) => { ... });
    server.Map.Post("/login", (request, response) => { ... });
    server.Map.Delete("/ban/{id}/"(request, response) => { ... });
    server.Map.Put("/update/{id}/", (request, response) => { ... });
    server.Map.Patch("/update/{id}/", (request, response) => { ... });
    server.Map.Head("validate/{token}/", (request, response) => { ... });
    server.Map.All("/ping", (request, response) => { ... }); # handle all http method
    
    # global middleware
    server.Middleware.Add((request, response, next) => { ... });
    
    # local middleware
    server.Middleware.Add("/admin/", (request, response, next) => { ... });
    server.Middleware.Add("/app/{foo}/{bar}/", (request, response, next) => { ... });
    
    # websocket server
    server.Map.Websocket("/chat/echo", (request, websocket) => { ... });
    server.Map.Websocket("/chat/pingpong", (request, websocket) => { ... });
    server.Map.Websocket("/chat/echo/{token}/", (request, websocket) => { ... });
    
    # actions
    server.To.Open(new Uri("http://localhost.com"));
    server.To.Close();

• RUDP

• Namespace Update

  // removed (Netly.Core is moved for Netly)
  using Netly.Core;
  
  // Added (netly interfaces namespace)
  using Netly.Interfaces;

Warning

• HTTP.Server new

  HTTP.Server does not allow listening or binding with SSL/TLS (HTTPS) connection. Because it uses HttpListener as base and HttpListener does not support SSL/TLS (HTTPS). To fix this issue, you must use the load balancer and bind to Netly.HTTP.Server (and it is recommended to use the load balancer in production). Well, after the V4 release, I @alec1o will think if I can ignore this issue or try to fix it. for example, create your own load balancer to mask Netly.HTTP.Server or recreate an HTTP.Server through Netly.TCP.Server to have control and remove HttpListener overhead (hardcore). "I with use only c#, using c++ or external lib isn't on context."

  TCP Performance (+1000%)

  With v3, it is possible to handle and remain stable, handling approximately ~300 connections that always send messages to the server. With v4 you can handle and remain stable when handling +20,000 connections that always send messages to the server.

  TCP is using Own thread instead of using ThreadPool.

  The main difference is that the Thread is managed and processed by the processor and thread pool and is stored in a queue and is executed in the free space of an already existing thread.

  [Click To Read More]: V3 have bad performance only on server side not in client side, why?

  
  

  v3 uses the thread pool and runs in the free time of an existing thread, which is good for performance-free execution. when using the 0-100 connection it will work very well because there will be time for all these thread pools to be executed, and when you have 1000 pools the system will not have free execution time to execute all the thread pools, so there is an execution queue, This needs a lot of time to run all 1000 pools in free space of the thread, also because the thread pool uses a lot of resources to save and load the execution context. (load, execute, save) the context of 1000 tasks in the thread's free time is very costly and requires execution time that pools do not have, which is why V3 did not support many connections.
  In other parts the Thread does not need to save context and is very fast. Thread behaves like threadpool, but it will be handled by the processor and will not need to save and load context, which means it is faster and uses more memory than threadpool.

waiting 😊

When will this be available on Unity store? I'm using v3 but I'm unable to connect with an iPhone (Mac Mini connects fine as client) and I'm curious if v4 might help.

@glenneroo Ooh... I'll publish this week.
I had think about examples to add, but I won't add examples. will be empty scene!

If netly v4 not connect with your iPhone (is a mistake need to be fixed, in netly).

• If you wanna a help, you can open one discussion or issue to me help you, now!
• I can help you now to start use Netly v4 in your unity project by now.

[glenneroo]

Thanks! I'll wait until you release in the store, then try that version and if I still have issues, I'll create a new issue.

[alec1o]

@glenneroo If you are available to run to use Netly V4 in unity, needs.

1. Copy to your unity project folder (Assets/Plugins/Netly/Netly.cs).

using UnityEngine;

namespace Netly
{
    public class Netly : MonoBehaviour
    {
        private void Start()
        {
            NetlyEnvironment.MainThread.IsAutomatic = false;
        }

        private void Update()
        {
            NetlyEnvironment.MainThread.Dispatch();
        }

        [RuntimeInitializeOnLoadMethod(RuntimeInitializeLoadType.BeforeSceneLoad)]
        public static void OnAfterSceneLoad()
        {
            var instance = new GameObject("[RUNTIME] NETLY");
            instance.AddComponent<Netly>();
            DontDestroyOnLoad(instance);
        }
    }
}

1. Download dll's and copy to your unity project folder (Assets/Plugins/Netly/Netly.dll) and (Assets/Plugins/Netly/Byter.dll).
   Download Netly-400.dll and Byter-400.dll

I'll wait for your feedback @glenneroo (If is running in iPhone).

[alec1o]

@glenneroo Netly v4.0.0 is published now at Unity Asset Store, and will stay available on 3 business day (Asset Store Revision)!
