Symphony Client
The Symphony client is used to connect the frontend of an application to the Symphony backend server.
Getting Started
Install the Symphony client:
npm install @symphony-rtc/clientRequire the client module in your application:
import { SymphonyClient } from @symphony-rtc/clientInstantiate a new Symphony Client that can be used to connect to a Room:
const client = new SymphonyClient(websocketUrl)API
SymphonyClient
enter(roomId)
Enters a room and returns it.
leave(roomId)
Leaves a room.
Room
A Room object is returned when calling Client.enter.
bundle(callback)
Merges operations in the callback function into a single operation.
getClientId()
Returns the id of the client.
getOthers()
Returns all other users in the Room.
getRoomId()
Returns the Room id.
newList(id)
Returns a new top-level SyncedList.
newMap(id)
Returns a new top-level SyncedMap.
newNestedList()
Returns a new SyncedList that can be nested within another synced type.
newNestedMap()
Returns a new SyncedMap that can be nested within another synced type.
subscribe(subscribedItem, callback)
Subscribes to updates for an item. If the subscribedItem is a SyncedList or SyncedMap, the provided callback is executed whenever that shared type changes. If the subscribedItem is 'others', the provided callback is executed whenever another client's presence changes.
unsubscribe(subscribedItem)
Stops subscribing to the SyncedList or SyncedMap passed as an argument.
updatePresence(props)
Updates the presence of the client. Properties passed as arguments will be updated, while other properties of presence will remain unchanged.
History
canRedo()
Checks whether there are any operations to redo, and returns a boolean.
canUndo()
Checks whether there are any operations to undo, and returns a boolean.
clear()
Removes all operations from the history.
mergeAll()
Merges all subsequent operations into a single operation until stopMergingAll is called.
redo()
Redoes the last operation by the client.
stopCaptureTimeout()
Prevents the next operation from being merged with the previous based on captureTimeout.
stopMergingAll()
Stops merging operations; subsequent operations will be treated as separate.
undo()
Undoes the last operation by the client.
SyncedList
The SyncedList is a shared type that is similar to the JavaScript Array.
length
Returns the number of elements of the SyncedList.
clear()
Removes all elements from the SyncedList.
delete(index, length)
Removes length elements from the SyncedList starting at the specified index.
every(callback)
Checks whether all elements in the SyncedList pass the test implemented by the provided function, and returns a Boolean value.
filter(callback)
Returns a new array containing all elements in the SyncedList that pass the test implemented by the provided function.
find(callback)
Returns the first element in the SyncedList that satisfies the provided testing function.
forEach(callback)
Calls the provided function once for each element of the SyncedList.
get(index)
Returns the element at the specified index of the SyncedList.
indexOf(element)
Returns the first index at which a given element can be found in the SyncedList, or -1 if not present.
insert(index, ...elements)
Inserts one or more elements at the specified index.
lastIndexOf(element)
Returns the index of the last occurrence of the specified element in the SyncedList, or -1 if not present.
map(callback)
Returns an array containing the elements of the SyncedList for which the provided function returns a truthy value.
move(oldIndex, newIndex)
Moves the element at a specified index of the SyncedList to a new index.
newHistory(captureTimeout=0)
Returns a new History object that can be used to undo/redo the current client's changes.
push(...elements)
Adds one or more elements to the SyncedList and returns the new length of the SyncedList.
set(index, element)
Replaces the element at the specified index of the SyncedList with the provided element.
slice(start, end)
Returns an array containing the elements of the SyncedList from start to end (non-inclusive).
some(callback)
Checks whether at least one element in the SyncedList passes the test implemented by the provided function, and returns a Boolean value.
toArray()
Returns an array containing all the elements of the SyncedList.
toJSON()
Returns a JSON representation of the SyncedList.
unshift(...elements)
Adds one or more elements to the beginning of the SyncedList and returns the new length of the SyncedList.
SyncedMap
The SyncedMap is a shared type that is similar to the JavaScript Map.
clear()
Removes all elements from the SyncedMap.
copy()
Returns a new SyncedMap with the same #values as the caller.
delete(key)
Removes the specified entry from the SyncedMap by key. Returns true if the entry existed and has been removed, or false if it did not exist.
entries()
Returns a new Iterator object of key, value pairs for each entry in the SyncedMap.
forEach(callback)
Calls the provided function once for each key, value pair of the SyncedMap.
get(key)
Returns a specified entry from the SyncedMap.
has(key)
Returns a Boolean indicating whether the SyncedMap contains an entry with the specified key or not.
keys()
Returns a new Iterator object containing the keys for each entry in the SyncedMap.
newHistory()
Returns a new History object that can be used to undo/redo the current client's changes.
set(key, value)
Adds or updates an entry in the SyncedMap with a specified key and a value.
size()
Returns the number of elements in the SyncedMap.
toJSON()
Returns a JSON representation of the SyncedMap.
values()
Returns a new Iterator object that contains the the values for each entry in the SyncedMap.
