websocket-client(中文文档)

Summary

A lightweight js lib for websocket.

websocket-client is a lightweight Javascript library running in a browser environment. Essentially, its instance wrapped around the native WebSocket so that it can provide some commonly used logic(e.g. hearbeat detection). Give programs similar behaviour to native WebSocket while working to make them more robust. (e.g. registration event, readyState property, etc.) The following functions is provided for websocket-client:

• automatic reconnection when an exception closed.
• you can specify the number of automatic reconnections and the interval between connections when connect to the server failed.
• cache sent failed messages and send in cached order at 100 ms intervals when the websocket reconnects.
• hearbeat detection
• EventHub mechanism

Browser Compatibility

• chrome >= 43
• firefox >= 19
• ie >= 10

Install

Usage

Use in the browser environment like:

<script src="./websocket-client.js"></script>
<script >
    var socket = new WS.WebSocketClient('ws://xxx.com/api/ws', {
        immediateReconnectTimeInterval: 2000,
        heartbeatPeriod: 50000,
        heartbeatMessage: 'ping'
    });
</script>

es module:

import WebSocketClient from 'websocket-client'
// or
// import { WebSocketClient } from 'websocket-client'

const socket = new WebSocketClient('ws://xxx.com/api/ws', {
    immediateReconnectTimeInterval: 2000,
    heartbeatPeriod: 50000,
    heartbeatMessage: 'ping'
})
socket.onopen = function() {
    console.log('open')
}

socket.onmessage = function(e) {
    console.log('message', e.data)
}

socket.onclose = function() {
    console.log('close')
}

socket.onerror = function(e) {
    console.error(e)
}

API

new WebSocketClient(url, options)

• Arguments：

  • {string} url The URL to which to connect.

  • {object} options see also options。

• Usage：

  Create a WebSocketClient instance and connect to server.

socketClient.close(code, reason)

• Arguments：

  • {number} code A numeric value indicating the status code explaining why the connection is being closed. Default: 1005

  • {string} reason A human-readable string explaining why the connection is closing. This string must be no longer than 123 bytes of UTF-8 text (not characters).

• Usage：

  Closes the WebSocket connection or connection attempt, if any. If the connection is already CLOSED, this method does nothing.

• Exceptions thrown

  • INVALID_ACCESS_ERR An invalid code was specified.
  • SYNTAX_ERR The reason string is too long or contains unpaired surrogates.

socketClient.send(data)

• Arguments：

  • {string | Blob | ArrayBuffer | ArrayBufferView | Object} data

• Usage：

  Enqueues the specified data to be transmitted to the server over the WebSocket connection, increasing the value of bufferedAmount by the number of bytes needed to contain the data. If the data can't be sent (for example, because it needs to be buffered but the buffer is full), the socket is closed automatically.

  Tips: if data is a plain object, it will be converted to JSON before sending.

• Example：

var data = { username: 'jhail', age: 18}
socketClient.send(data) // the same as socketClient.send('{"username":"jhail","age":18}')

socketClient.on( event, callback )

• Arguments：

  • {string | Array} event

  • {Function} callback

• Usage：

  Listen for a custom event on the current instance(socketClient). Events can be triggered by socketClient.trigger. The callback will receive all the additional arguments passed into these event-triggering methods.

  By default, when a message is received, the socketClient automatically triggers events corresponding to message property values in the received data.

  See also options[message].

• Example：

socketClient.on('message', function(msg) {
    console.log(msg)
})
socketClient.trigger('message', 'Hi')
// "Hi"
socketClient.trigger('message', 'Hi')
// "Hi"

socketClient.once( event, callback )

• Arguments：

  • {string} event

  • {Function} callback

• Usage：

  Listen for a custom event, but only once. The listener will be removed once it triggers for the first time.

• Example：

socketClient.once('once', function(msg) {
    console.log(msg)
})
socketClient.trigger('once', 'Hi')
// "Hi"
socketClient.trigger('once', 'Hi') //  If triggered again, no more output "Hi".

socketClient.off( event, callback )

• Arguments：

  • {string | Array} event

  • {Function} callback

• Usage：

  Remove custom event listener(s).

  • If no arguments are provided, remove all event listeners;
  • If only the event is provided, remove all listeners for that event;
  • If both event and callback are given, remove the listener for that specific callback only.

socketClient.trigger( eventName, …args )

• Arguments：

  • {string} eventName

  • ...args

• Usage：

  Trigger an event on the current instance. Any additional arguments will be passed into the listener’s callback function.

• Example：

socketClient.on('messages', function(a, b) {
    console.log(a + b)
})
socketClient.trigger('messages', 'Hello ', 'World')
// "Hello World"

options

EventHub

EventHub is designed to provide users with a more convenient and flexible way to handle received messages. For this purpose, an EventHub API is provided for users to import independently.

Demo

// util.js
import { EventHub } from 'websocket-client'
export const eventHub = new EventHub()

// somewhere.js
import { eventHub } from 'util.js'
eventHub.on('message', ( param ) => {
    console.log(param)
})

// websocket.js
import WebSocketClient from 'websocket-client'
import { eventHub } from 'util'

const socket = new WebSocketClient('ws://xxx.com/api/ws', {
    immediateReconnectTimeInterval: 2000,
    heartbeatPeriod: 50000,
    heartbeatMessage: 'ping'
})

socket.onmessage = function(e) { 
  const data = e.data
  eventHub.trigger(data.message, data)
}
