# WebSockets From Space*

*\** There are no users in space, only astronauts with the latest browser. Therefore no graceful fallback is attempted.

## API

### Setup

var server = http.createServer(...);
server.listen(port);

require('spacesocket').attach(server, function(conn) {
dealWithWebSocket(conn);
});

### Reading

conn.on('data', function(msg) {
doStuffWithString(msg);
});

### Writing

conn.send('Hello, World')

### Closure

conn.end();

### Buffer control

conn.on('drain', function() {
// socket write queue is empty,
// send until queueing again:
while(conn.send(data)) { }
});

// Throttle sender for 1s:
conn.pause();
setTimeout(function() { conn.resume(); }, 1000);
