XWM

Cross-window messaging library.

Usage

npm install xwm

Main Window

import { create } from "/lib/main.ts";

// Define the events
interface EventMap {
    ping: { timestamp: number };
    pong: { timestamp: number };
}

const url = "http://example.com";

// Create instance
const xwm = create<EventMap>(url);

// Open window in an iframe and pass the token
const iframe = document.createElement("iframe");
iframe.src = `${url}?token=${xwm.createToken()}`;
document.body.appendChild(iframe);

// Register the created window
xwm.setPeerWindow(iframe.contentWindow);

// Listen for events
xwm.on("pong", (payload) => {
    console.log("Pong received", payload.timestamp);
});

// Emit events
xwm.emit("ping", { timestamp: Date.now() });

Peer Window

import { createFromToken } from "/lib/main.ts";

// Get the token
const params = new URLSearchParams(location.search).get("token");

// Create instance from token
const xwm = createFromToken<EventMap>(token);

// Listen for events
xwm.on("ping", (payload) => {
    console.log("Ping received", payload.timestamp);

    // Emit events
    xwm.emit("pong", { timestamp: Date.now() });
});
