restfulsocket v1.0.7

Welcome to RestfulSocket

RestfulSocket is a RESTful Socket that combines the native Fetch, Websocket and Promise API to create a restful response to a websocket event listener.

Getting Started

1. Install RestfulSocket:

npm install --save restfulsocket

2. Import RestfulSocket:

import RestfulSocket from 'restfulsocket'

3. Use RestfulSocket:

// restSocket.socket => socket created from new WebSocket(...)
const onopen = () =>{ 
  /* Function for socket on open */ 
  restSocket.socket.send(...);
};
const onclose = () =>{ /* Function for socket on close */ };
const onerror = () =>{ /* Function for socket on error* /};

const restSocket = new RestfulSocket('ws://localhost/', onopen, onclose, onerror);

restSocket.findSocketMessage((socketMessageData) =>{
  /* define a filter to find and return socket message from socketMessageData object */
});

restSocket.get('localhost/api/initialData', requestObjectOne)
  .on('sampleMessage')
  .then((data) => {
    //DATA is an array of objects returned from fetch promises
  })
  .catch(console.log);

4. Complex use case:

const restSocket = new RestfulSocket('ws://localhost/', onopen, onclose, onerror);

restSocket.findSocketMessage((socketMessageData) =>{
  /* define a filter to find and return socket message from socketMessageData object */
});

restSocket.get('localhost/api/initialData', requestObjectOne)
  .post('localhost/api/initialPost', requestObjectTwo)
  .on('init')
  .then((data) => {
    //DATA is an array of objects returned from fetch promises
  })
  .catch(console.log);

restSocket.get('localhost/api/updateData', requestObjectThree)
  .get('localhost/api/secondaryData', requestObjectFour)
  .on('update')
  .then((data) => {
    //DATA is an array of objects returned from fetch promises
  })
  .catch(console.log);
