Advanced tools
SocketCluster Client is the client-side component of SocketCluster.
To install, run:
npm install socketcluster-client
The socketcluster-client script is called socketcluster.js (located in the main socketcluster-client directory)
To build SocketCluster Client with browserify, use:
browserify -s socketCluster index.js > socketcluster.js
Embed in your HTML page using (Note that the src attribute may be different depending on how you setup your HTTP server):
<script type="text/javascript" src="/socketcluster.js"></script>
Once you have embedded the client socketcluster.js into your page, you will gain access to a global socketCluster object. Then, to begin interacting with the SocketCluster cluster, you will need to establish a connection. Once that's done, you will be able to emit events to the server and listen to incoming events (example code):
var options = {
port: 8000
};
// Initiate the connection to the server
var socket = socketCluster.connect(options);
socket.on('connect', function () {
console.log('CONNECTED');
});
// Listen to an event called 'rand' from the server
socket.on('rand', function (num) {
console.log('RANDOM: ' + num);
var curHTML = document.body.innerHTML;
curHTML += 'RANDOM: ' + num + '<br />';
document.body.innerHTML = curHTML;
});
Example with HTTPS:
var options = {
protocol: 'https',
hostname: 'example.com',
port: 443
};
// Initiate the connection to the server
var socket = socketCluster.connect(options);
