JavaScript/TypeScript library for interacting with session backends and the Jamsocket platform.

Installation

npm install @jamsocket/client

Example

Here's an example of how different parts of Jamsocket's client libraries work together.

import { Jamsocket } from '@jamsocket/server'

const jamsocket = new Jamsocket({
   account: '[YOUR ACCOUNT]',
   token: '[YOUR TOKEN]',
   service: '[YOUR SERVICE]',
   // during development, you can simply pass { dev: true }
})

const connectResponse = await jamsocket.connect() // returns an instance of ConnectResponse

import { SessionBackend } from '@jamsocket/client'

const sessionBackend = new SessionBackend(connectResponse)

sessionBackend.isReady() // returns a boolean indicating if the session backend has started and is ready to receive connections
sessionBackend.onReady(() => {
    // do something here once the session backend has reached a Ready status
})

Library Reference

@jamsocket/client

SessionBackend

import { SessionBackend } from '@jamsocket/client'

const sessionBackend = new SessionBackend(connectResponse)

isReady()

isReady returns a boolean value that is true if the backend is ready.

isReady()

import { SessionBackend } from '@jamsocket/client'

const sessionBackend = new SessionBackend(connectResponse)

const isReady = sessionBackend.isReady()

onReadyPromise

onReadyPromise is a Promise that resolves when the session backend is ready.

import { SessionBackend } from '@jamsocket/client'

const sessionBackend = new SessionBackend(connectResponse)

await sessionBackend.onReadyPromise

onReady()

onReady may be used as an alternative to the onReadyPromise. It may be called with a callback function that is called when the session backend is ready.

import { SessionBackend } from '@jamsocket/client'

const sessionBackend = new SessionBackend(connectResponse)

sessionBackend.onReady(() => {
    // your logic here
})

isTerminated()

isTerminated returns a boolean value that is true if the backend is no longer running.

isTerminated()

import { SessionBackend } from '@jamsocket/client'

const sessionBackend = new SessionBackend(connectResponse)

const isTerminated = sessionBackend.isTerminated()

onTerminatedPromise

onTerminatedPromise is a Promise that resolves when the session backend has stopped running.

import { SessionBackend } from '@jamsocket/client'

const sessionBackend = new SessionBackend(connectResponse)

await sessionBackend.onTerminatedPromise

onTerminated()

onTerminated may be used as an alternative to the onTerminatedPromise. It may be called with a callback function that is called when the session backend has stopped running.

import { SessionBackend } from '@jamsocket/client'

const sessionBackend = new SessionBackend(connectResponse)

sessionBackend.onTerminated(() => {
    // your logic here
})

status()

status returns a Promise that resolves with the backend's current BackendState.

import { SessionBackend } from '@jamsocket/client'

const sessionBackend = new SessionBackend(connectResponse)

const currentState = await sessionBackend.status()

onStatus()

onStatus takes a callback which is called when the backend's status changes. It returns an unsubscribe function that may be called to unsubscribes the callback from the status changes.

import { SessionBackend } from '@jamsocket/client'

const sessionBackend = new SessionBackend(connectResponse)

const unsubcribe = sessionBackend.onStatus((state: BackendState) => {
    // your logic here
})

// later, you can unsubscribe by calling the returned function
unsubscribe()

destroy()

destroy terminates your client connection, but it does not terminate the session backend.

import { SessionBackend } from '@jamsocket/client'

const sessionBackend = new SessionBackend(connectResponse)

sessionBackend.destroy()
