Socket.IO bindings for CompoundJS
npm install co-socket --save
then add co-socket to config/autoload.js
map.socket('some-event', 'controller#action');
When client emit event some-event, then action action of controller
controller will gain control. Data passed to event will be available as
params variable.
action('some-action', function () {
socket().emit('event', {some: 'data'}); // send 'event' to current client
socket(anotherSessionID).emit('hello'); // send 'hello' to another user
// identifyed by anotherSessionID
});
Any controller action (both socket and non-socket) can emit some event with
connected client (current session client). If you want to communicate with
another user need to specify session id as param of socket method.
Other socket.io API will be available later: join, broadcast, etc..
