Package description

What is twilsock?

The 'twilsock' npm package is a part of Twilio's suite of tools, designed to facilitate real-time communication between clients and servers. It provides a WebSocket-based protocol for efficient, low-latency messaging, making it ideal for applications that require instant updates, such as chat applications, live notifications, and collaborative tools.

What are twilsock's main functionalities?

Establishing a Connection

This feature allows you to establish a connection to the Twilio server using a Twilio token. The connection is essential for sending and receiving real-time messages.

const Twilsock = require('twilsock');
const twilsockClient = new Twilsock('YOUR_TWILIO_TOKEN');
twilsockClient.connect();

Sending Messages

Once connected, you can send messages to the server. The 'send' method takes a message type and a payload, allowing for structured communication.

twilsockClient.send('messageType', { key: 'value' });

Receiving Messages

This feature allows you to listen for incoming messages of a specific type. The callback function is executed whenever a message of the specified type is received.

twilsockClient.on('messageType', (message) => {
  console.log('Received message:', message);
});

Handling Connection Events

You can handle various connection events such as 'connected' and 'disconnected' to manage the state of your application based on the connection status.

twilsockClient.on('connected', () => {
  console.log('Connected to Twilio server');
});
twilsockClient.on('disconnected', () => {
  console.log('Disconnected from Twilio server');
});
