dronestatus v0.2.0

node-dronestatus

AR.Drone 2.0 status in the browser via WebSocket

Requirements

You will need a browser that supports WebSockets.

Installing

npm install dronestatus

Using

In node you simply need to attach dronestatus to your server:

require('dronestatus').listen(server);

In your HTML include the client script, then add a listener to handle status change from the drone:

<script src="/dronestatus/nodecopter-client.js"></script>
<script>
	new NodecopterStatus().on('change', function (message) {
		console.log(JSON.parse(message.data));
	});
</script>

You can find a more detailed example under examples/.

Message

The payload that is provided from the server provides a lot of data about the state of the drone. I will attempt to document this more fully at some point. In the meantime example/message.json provides an example of what the message looks like.
