Stack.io is a distributed Event Emitter library to communicate easily between different nodejs app (or services).
It implements the EventEmitter API to be used in an intuitive way.
It also implements an RPC (Remote Procedure Call) layer on top of the Events layer to expose JavaScript objects easily through the network.
Only Push/Pull and Pub/Sub models are implemented on top of Redis but the library has been implemented to be transport agnostic. So other transports will follow.
Features:
- EventEmitter-like implementation
- RPC, expose and call a Service from anywhere
- Transport agnostic (multi-transport will follow)
- Any Object or Events can ben called or exposed from the browser (using socket.io)
Feel free to checkout the examples and also the browser support examples (backend and frontend).
Let's start:
$ npm install stack.io
$ node
> var stackio = require('stack.io'),
> io = stackio();
