const booth = Booth(options)
/* port */
const booth = Booth({ port: 9000 })
/*

* for using inside working http server
* or with unix domain socket
*/
const booth = Booth({ server })
booth.on('name', handler)
booth.on({ name: handler })
function handler (data, endpoint) { /* … */ }
/*
* ws_uri: string with ws or ws+unix uri
*/
Endpoint(ws_uri)
/* websocket */
Endpoint('ws://localhost:9000')
/* unix domain socket */
Endpoint('ws+unix:///tmp/booth/unix.sock')
endpoint.on('name', handler)
endpoint.on({ name: handler })
function handler (data, endpoint) { /* … */ }
