Steps:

you need to require it in your master!

require('msghub');

and in all workers you want:

var msghub = require('msghub');

append Event-Listeners and name them whatever you want:

msghub.on('my-event-listener', function (msg) {
  // do something with message
});

now you can send from anywhere inside your application to all workers which are binded to that event:

msghub.send('my-event-listener', 'just a simple message');

or send a message to some random listener inside your application:

msghub.random('my-event-listener', 'just a simple message');

or send a message in roundrobin manner to one listener inside your application:

msghub.roundrobin('my-event-listener', 'just a simple message');
