quick-tcp-socket

Simple wrapper for net.Socket to send/receive JSON objects and Buffer streams.
Made as much faster alternative to socket.io + socket.io-stream

Install

$ npm install quick-tcp-socket

Use example

const {
  TcpSocket, ReadBufferStream, WriteBufferStream
} = require('quick-tcp-socket');

//
// Client
//
let clientSocket = net.connect(port, host, () => {
  client = new TcpSocket(false, clientSocket);

  client.sendPacket("getData1", {
    param1: 1,
  });
  client.once("setData1", (data) => {
    // data == {a: 1, b: 2}
  });

  client.on('close', () => { //disconnected });
  client.on('error', (err) => { console.error(err); });

  let readStream = fs.createReadStream("file.txt");
  client.sendPacketAndStreams("setStream1", {size: 100}, readStream);
});


//
// Server
//
net.createServer({}, (clientSocket) => {
  let client = new TcpSocket(true, clientSocket);

  client.on('getData1', (params) => {
    // params.param1 == 1
    client.sendPacket('setData1', {
      a: 1, b: 2
    });
  });

  client.on("setStream1", (data) => {
    // data.size == 100
    let writeStream = fs.createWriteStream("file.txt");
    client.receiveStreams([writeStream], () => {
      //stream received
    });
  });

  client.on('close', () => { //client disconnected });
  client.on('error', (err) => { console.error(err); });
});
