-# Introduction
-
-**ngWebsocket** is a library that provides a provider and a service to handle **HTML5 WebSocket** with ease
-in pure **AngularJS** style!
-The idea behind this module is to give four kinds of object to handle websockets:
-
- - **$websocketProvider**: the provider is on top of usage. In fact, you can setup a general configuration for each ngWebsocket you're going to create
- - **$websocket**: following an Angular service that lets you to handle different websocket instance among your application
- - **ngWebsocket**: an instance of the HTML5 WebSocket wrapper (this is actually the core of this module): it provides lots of feature to work with websockets
- - **$$mockWebsocket**: this is a smart implementation of a websocket backend that lets you to developer and test your app without a real responding server
-
-For each of these objects an API is available and fully documented in this document.
-
-# Requirements
-
-The only requirement needed is [AngularJS](https://angularjs.org/) that you can install it via [Bower](http://bower.io/).
-
-# Installation
-
-Use [Bower](http://bower.io/) to install this module:
-
-```bash
-$ bower install ng-websocket
-```
-
-Or simply `git clone` the repo and install the dependencies with [NPM](https://www.npmjs.org/):
-
-```bash
-$ git clone https://github.com/wilk/ngWebsocket
-$ cd ngWebsocket
-$ npm install
-```
-
-# Usage
-
-After the [Installation](#installation), require it in your Angular application.
-
-Firstly, in your `index.html`:
-
-```html
-<html>
- <head>
- <script src="bower_components/ng-websocket/ng-websocket.js"></script>
- </head>
-</html>
-```
-
-Then, in your Angular application definition (assumed `app.js`):
-
-```javascript
- 'use strict';
-
- angular.module('MyApp', ['ngWebsocket']);
-```
-
-Now, you're ready to use it!
-
-# Tutorial
-
-Need to use HTML5 WebSocket to build your cool web application, huh?
-No problem, dude! Check this out!
-
-```javascript
-'use strict';
-
-angular.module('MyCoolWebApp', ['ngWebsocket'])
- .run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new('ws://localhost:12345'); // instance of ngWebsocket, handled by $websocket service
-
- ws.$on('$open', function () {
- console.log('Oh my gosh, websocket is really open! Fukken awesome!');
-
- ws.$emit('ping', 'hi listening websocket server'); // send a message to the websocket server
-
- var data = {
- level: 1,
- text: 'ngWebsocket rocks!',
- array: ['one', 'two', 'three'],
- nested: {
- level: 2,
- deeper: [{
- hell: 'yeah'
- }, {
- so: 'good'
- }]
- }
- };
-
- ws.$emit('pong', data);
- });
-
- ws.$on('pong', function (data) {
- console.log('The websocket server has sent the following data:');
- console.log(data);
-
- ws.$close();
- });
-
- ws.$on('$close', function () {
- console.log('Noooooooooou, I want to have more fun with ngWebsocket, damn it!');
- });
- });
-```
-
-Easy, right?
-
-Well, let's chain it!
-
-```javascript
-'use strict';
-
-angular.module('MyCoolChainedWebApp', ['ngWebsocket'])
- .run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new('ws://localhost:12345')
- .$on('$open', function () {
- console.log('Oh my gosh, websocket is really open! Fukken awesome!');
-
- var data = {
- level: 1,
- text: 'ngWebsocket rocks!',
- array: ['one', 'two', 'three'],
- nested: {
- level: 2,
- deeper: [{
- hell: 'yeah'
- }, {
- so: 'good'
- }]
- }
- };
-
- ws.$emit('ping', 'hi listening websocket server') // send a message to the websocket server
- .$emit('pong', data);
- })
- .$on('pong', function (data) {
- console.log('The websocket server has sent the following data:');
- console.log(data);
-
- ws.$close();
- })
- .$on('$close', function () {
- console.log('Noooooooooou, I want to have more fun with ngWebsocket, damn it!');
- });
- });
-```
-
-Your back-end team is lazy? No problem: we can do it on our own!
-
-```javascript
-'use strict';
-
-angular.module('MyIndipendentCoolWebApp', ['ngWebsocket'])
- .run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new({
- url: 'ws://localhost:12345',
- mock: {
- fixtures: {
- 'custom event': {
- data: 'websocket server mocked response'
- },
- 'another event': {
- data: {
- damn: 'dude',
- that: 'is awesome!'
- }
- }
- }
- }
- });
-
- ws.$on('$open', function () {
- ws.$emit('an event', 'a parrot response') // by default it responde with the same incoming data
- .$emit('custom event') // otherwise it uses the given fixtures
- .$emit('another event'); // even for objects
- })
- .$on('an event', function (message) {
- console.log(message); // it prints 'a parrot response'
- })
- .$on('custom event', function (message) {
- console.log(message); // it prints 'websocket server mocked response'
- })
- .$on('another event', function (message) {
- console.log(message); // it prints the object {damn: 'dude', that: 'is awesome!'}
- });
- });
-```
-
-# Features
-
-ngWebsocket comes from Italy with lots of interesting stuff, folks!
-Why not just a wrapper? Because we can do more with happiness and fun!
-
-So, let's discover the awesome features list!
-
-## Lazy
-
-Using basic HTML5 WebSocket object, you experienced that the connection is open immediately, just after the websocket is created with **new** constructor.
-By default, the same behaviour is used by ngWebsocket but you can simply change it with this powerful feature:
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket, $timeout) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new({
- url: 'ws://localhost:12345',
- lazy: true
- });
-
- ws.$on('$open', function () {
- console.log('The ngWebsocket has open!'); // It will print after 5 (or more) seconds
- });
-
- $timeout(function () {
- ws.$open(); // Open the connction only at this point. It will fire the '$open' event
- }, 5000);
-});
-```
-
-With [$websocket.$open](#open) function, you can open the connection when you want, especially after the coffee break.
-
-**Default: disabled**
-
-## Reconnect
-
-Ok, your websocket connection went down due to a bad wifi connection and you don't want to make another connection
-manually, right?
-So, what about an automated feature that do this for you?
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new({
- url: 'ws://localhost:12345',
- reconnect: true // it will reconnect after 2 seconds
- });
-
- ws.$on('$open', function () {
- console.log('Here we are and I\'m pretty sure to get back here for another time at least!');
- })
- .$on('$close', function () {
- console.log('Got close, damn you silly wifi!');
- });
-});
-```
-
-With this feature, if the connection goes down, it will open again after 2 seconds by default.
-If you need to get the connection back in fewer time, just use the **reconnectInterval** time slice:
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new({
- url: 'ws://localhost:12345',
- reconnect: true,
- reconnectInterval: 500 // it will reconnect after 0.5 seconds
- });
-
- ws.$on('$open', function () {
- console.log('Here we are and I\'m pretty sure to get back here for another time at least!');
- })
- .$on('$close', function () {
- console.log('Got close, damn you silly wifi!');
- });
-});
-```
-
-**Pay attention, good sir**: if you close the ngWebsocket with the [**$close**](#close) method, it won't get the connection back
-until the [**$open**](#open) is invoked!
-
-**Default: enabled**
-
-## Enqueue
-
-From great powers come great responsability. Keep this in mind while reading this feature.
-
-Sometimes, it would be useful if someone save our websocket communication, especially when the connection is down.
-With this powerful feature, it's possible to store every unsent message in a queue and then flush them just the connection get up again.
-
-How? Enabling enqueue feature, of course!
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new({
- url: 'ws://localhost:12345',
- lazy: true,
- enqueue: true
- });
-
- ws.$emit('dude event', 'hi dude!'); // this message couldn't be forwarded because of the lazy property (the websocket is still closed)
-
- ws.$on('$open', function () {
- console.log('I\'m sure the above message gets sent before this log is printed in the console ;)');
- });
-
- ws.$open(); // when the websocket gets open, flushes every message stored in the internal queue
-});
-```
-
-**BUT** this means that each message is stored into a memory queue and it can get really big, especially if your application sends many messages in a short time slice.
-
-**Default: disabled**
-
-## Mock
-
-Dulcis in fundo, a websocket server implementation to use and test your application, without a real websocket server listening!
-Yep, you well heard!
-
-Think about this situation: you're developing the front-end part of your company application and the backend team is lazy (because every developer is lazy),
-so you couldn't start writing your section because you need to send/retrieve data to/from the server.
-
-No problem, you can!
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new({
- url: 'ws://localhost:12345',
- mock: true
- });
-
- ws.$on('$open', function () {
- ws.$emit('hi', 'dude');
- })
- .$on('hi', function (message) {
- console.log(message); // it prints 'dude'
- });
-});
-```
-
-By default, the mock feature simulate a parrot websocket server: this means that every message sent with
-a certain event, will have a response with the same structure, with the same event and the same data.
-
-However, you can setup some fixtures that simulate what your lazy back-end team is going to do after beer time:
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new({
- url: 'ws://localhost:12345',
- mock: {
- fixtures: {
- hi: {
- data: 'dude, this is a custom message!'
- }
- }
- }
- });
-
- ws.$on('$open', function () {
- ws.$emit('hi');
- })
- .$on('hi', function (message) {
- console.log(message); // it prints 'dude, this is a custom message'
- });
-});
-```
-
-**Default: disabled**
-
-# Testing
-
-This module uses [Karma](http://karma-runner.github.io/0.12/index.html) with [Jasmine](http://jasmine.github.io/) for unit testing, so before launching any test check out if all dependencies are correctly installed:
-
-```bash
-$ npm install
-```
-
-After that, launch the test:
-
-```bash
-$ npm test
-```
-
-# API
-
-ngWebsocket APIs are composed by four different modules:
-
- - **$websocketProvider**
- - **$websocket**
- - **ngWebsocket**
- - **$$mockWebsocket** (private but configurable)
-
-## $websocketProvider
-
-Following the API of ngWebsocket Provider
-
-### $setup
-
-If you need to setup your custom default configuration for each ngWebsocket istance, pass it to this method:
-
-```javascript
-angular.config(function ($websocketProvider) {
- $websocketProvider.$setup({
- lazy: false,
- reconnect: true,
- reconnectInterval: 2000,
- mock: false,
- enqueue: false
- });
-});
-```
-
-**Usage**
-
-```javascript
-$setup(config)
-```
-
-**Arguments**
-
-| **Param** | **Type** | **Details** |
-| --------- | -------- | ----------- |
-| config | Object | default ngWebsocket configuration |
-
-**Returns**
-
-| **Type** | **Details** |
-| -------- | ----------- |
-| $websocketProvider | the $websocketProvider |
-
-## $websocket
-
-Following the API of the $websocket Service
-
-### $get
-
-Every ngWebsocket instance created with [$websocket.$new](#new) method are stored within the $websocket service.
-To get one of them, you can use **$get** with the url of the websocket you're looking for:
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$get('ws://localhost:12345');
-});
-```
-
-The url is needed because it is stored using the url as the key of an hashmap.
-
-**Usage**
-
-```javascript
-$get(url)
-```
-
-**Arguments**
-
-| **Param** | **Type** | **Details** |
-| --------- | -------- | ----------- |
-| url | String | the websocket url |
-
-**Returns**
-
-| **Type** | **Details** |
-| -------- | ----------- |
-| ngWebsocket | an instance of ngWebsocket or undefined |
-
-### $new
-
-There are two ways to create a new instance of ngWebsocket:
-
-**string (url)**
-
-The url is always needed and it has to start with the websocket schema (ws:// or wss://):
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new('ws://localhost:12345');
-});
-```
-
-A new instance is returned and the internal WebSocket has already started the connection with the websocket server on the backend.
-
-**object**
-
-All of the following configurations can be changed:
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new(
- url: 'ws://localhost:12345',
- lazy: false,
- reconnect: true,
- reconnectInterval: 2000,
- mock: false,
- enqueue: false
- );
-});
-```
-
-For more information see the [ngWebsocket Constructor section](#constructor).
-
-**Usage**
-
-```javascript
-$new(url|config)
-```
-
-**Arguments**
-
-| **Param** | **Type** | **Details** |
-| --------- | -------- | ----------- |
-| url/config | String/Object | websocket url or a configuration set |
-
-**Returns**
-
-| **Type** | **Details** |
-| -------- | ----------- |
-| ngWebsocket | an instance of ngWebsocket |
-
-## ngWebsocket
-
-ngWebsocket is the core of this module.
-In a few words, it's a wrapper for the HTML5 WebSocket object, extending it with different features.
-It acts like an EventEmitter and it provides a common way to attach a handler for each fired event.
-
-Following the API in detail.
-
-### Constructor
-
-The constructor of the ngWebsocket accepts two kind of parameters:
-
- - String: the url starting with the WebSocket schema (ws:// or wss://)
- plus an optional String/String[] containing the protocols (this matches
- the WebSocket constructor API)
- - Object: a configuration containing the websocket url
-
-The url is a requirement to create a new ngWebsocket.
-An instance is always created with a factory method by the [$websocket](#websocket) service: in fact,
-it lets to make different websockets that are pointing to different urls.
-
-Example of a basic instantiation:
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new('ws://localhost:12345', ['binary', 'base64']);
-});
-```
-
-Using Object configuration:
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new({
- url: 'ws://localhost:12345',
- lazy: false,
- reconnect: true,
- reconnectInterval: 2000,
- enqueue: false,
- mock: false,
- protocols: ['binary', 'base64']
- });
-});
-```
-
-Following the explanation of the configuration object - {Type} PropertyName (default):
-
- - **{Boolean} lazy (false)**: lazy initialization. A websocket can open the connection when ngWebsocket is instantiated with [$websocket.$new](#new) (false) or afterwards with [$open](#open) (false). For more information see [Features - Lazy Initialization](#lazy)
- - **{Boolean} reconnect (true)**: auto reconnect behaviour. A websocket can try to reopen the connection when is down (true) or stay closed (false). For more information see [Features - Auto Reconnect](#reconnect)
- - **{Number} reconnectInterval (2000)**: auto reconnect interval. By default, a websocket try to reconnect after 2000 ms (2 seconds). For more information see [Features - Auto Reconnect](#reconnect)
- - **{Boolean} enqueue (false)**: enqueue unsent messages. By default, a websocket discards messages when the connection is closed (false) but it can enqueue them and send afterwards the connection gets open back (true). For more information see [Features - Enqueue Unsent Messages](#enqueue)
- - **{Boolean/Object} mock (false)**: mock a websocket server. By default, a websocket run only if the webserver socket is listening (false) but it can be useful to mock the backend to make the websocket working (true). For more information see [Features - Mock Websocket Server](#mock)
- - **{String/String[]} (null)**: Either a single protocol string or an array of protocol strings. This is the same as the WebSocket protocols argument.
-
-### Constants
-
-Websocket status constants:
-
- - **$CONNECTING**: the websocket is trying to open the connection
- - **$OPEN**: the websocket connection is open
- - **$CLOSING**: the websocket connection is closing
- - **$CLOSED**: the websocket connection is closed
-
-### Events
-
-There are custom events fired by ngWebsocket.
-They are useful to setup a listener for certain situations and behaviours:
-
- - **$open**: the websocket gets open
- - **$close**: the websocket gets closed
- - **$error**: an error occurred (callback params: {Error} error)
- - **$message**: the original message sent from the server (callback params: {String} message). Usually, it's a JSON encoded string containing the event to fire and the data to pass ({"event": "an event", "data": "some data"})
-
-The other events are custom events, setup by the user itself.
-
-### $on
-
-Attach one or more handlers to a specific event.
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new('ws://localhost:12345');
-
- // Single event handler
- ws.$on('my event', function myHandler () {...});
-
- // Different event handlers
- ws.$on('another event', myHandler, mySecondHandler, myThirdHandler);
-
- // Different chained event handlers
- ws.$on('third event', function myHandler () {...})
- .$on('third event', function mySecondHandler () {...})
- .$on('third event', function myThirdHandler () {...});
-});
-```
-
-Now the websocket is listening for 'my event' event and the handler 'myHandler' will be called when that event
-is sent by the websocket server. The same thing happens for the other two cases: each event handler is called
-one by one, starting from the first one, ending with the last one.
-
-**Usage**
-
-```javascript
-$on(event, handler|handlers)
-```
-
-**Arguments**
-
-| **Param** | **Type** | **Details** |
-| --------- | -------- | ----------- |
-| event | String | the event to attach a listener |
-| handler/handlers | Function/Function[] | one or more handlers to invoke when the event is fired up |
-
-**Returns**
-
-| **Type** | **Details** |
-| -------- | ----------- |
-| ngWebsocket | the ngWebsocket |
-
-### $un
-
-Detach a handler from a specific event.
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new('ws://localhost:12345');
-
- ws.$on('my event', function myHandler () {...});
- ws.$un('my event');
-});
-```
-
-The above websocket has not listener attached at the end of the execution.
-
-
-**Usage**
-
-```javascript
-$un(event)
-```
-
-**Arguments**
-
-| **Param** | **Type** | **Details** |
-| --------- | -------- | ----------- |
-| event | String | the event to detach the listener |
-
-**Returns**
-
-| **Type** | **Details** |
-| -------- | ----------- |
-| ngWebsocket | the ngWebsocket |
-
-### $emit
-
-Send an event to the websocket server.
-
-It's possible to send a lonely event or attaching some data to it.
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new('ws://localhost:12345');
-
- ws.$on('$open', function () {
- ws.$emit('lonely event'); // the websocket server will receive only the event name
- ws.$emit('event with data', 'some data'); // it will send the event with 'some data' string
- ws.$emit('with object', {some: 'data'}); // it will send the event with the object JSONified
- });
-});
-```
-
-It's possible to send both simply (like strings and numbers) and complex data (like objects and arrays).
-
-**Usage**
-
-```javascript
-$emit(event, [data])
-```
-
-**Arguments**
-
-| **Param** | **Type** | **Details** |

- var ws = $websocket.$new(url: 'ws://localhost:12345');
-
- console.log(ws.$ready()); // it prints false
-
- ws.$on('$open', function () {
- console.log(ws.$ready()); // it prints true
- ws.$close(); // it closes the websocket connection
- console.log(ws.$ready()); // it prints false
- });
-
- ws.$on('$close', function () {
- console.log(ws.$ready()); // it prints false
- console.log('Connection closed!');
- });
-```
-
-**Usage**
-
-```javascript
-$ready()
-```
-
-**Returns**
-
-| **Type** | **Details** |
-| -------- | ----------- |
-| Boolean | true if the connection is OPEN, false otherwise |
-
-### $mockup
-
-It returns if the websocket is mocked up or not.
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new(url: 'ws://localhost:12345');
-
- console.log(ws.$mockup()); // it prints false
-
- var ws2 = $websocket.$new({
- url: 'ws://localhost:54321',
- mock: true
- });
-
- console.log(ws.$mockup()); // it prints true
-```
-
-**Usage**
-
-```javascript
-$mockup()
-```
-
-**Returns**
-
-| **Type** | **Details** |
-| -------- | ----------- |
-| Boolean | true if the ngWebsocket istance is mocked up, false otherwise |
-
-## $$mockWebsocket
-
-If you need to develop or test your application without a real websocket backend server, you can setup
-a mockup of it with this feature.
-The only thing to do is to pass a configuration object during the ngWebsocket initialization:
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new({
- url: 'ws://localhost:12345',
- mock: {
- openTimeout: 500,
- closeTimeout: 1000,
- messageInterval: 2000,
- fixtures: {}
- }
- });
-```
-
-Following the explanation of the configuration object - {Type} PropertyName (default)::
-
- - **{Boolean/Object} mock (false)**: could be either a Boolean (default to false) or an object
- - **{Number} openTimeout (500)**: timeout to make the internal websocket to get open
- - **{Number} closeTimeout (1000)**: timeout to make the internal websocket to get closed
- - **{Number} messageInterval (2000)**: the internal websocket sends enqueued message with this interval time
- - **{Object/String} fixtures ({})**: an object of fixtures, where the keys are the events and the values are the data to respond, or an url to retrieve remote fixtures via HTTP
-
-Fixtures can mock both custom events and data.
-They can be added as a static object with the following structure:
-
-```javascript
-fixtures: {
- 'incoming event name': {
- event: 'outgoing event name',
- data: 'response data'
- }
-}
-```
-
-The *incoming event name* is the event fired by the websocket while the *outgoing event name* is the one sent by the mocked webserver.
-So, it be useful to map events with a custom response.
-By default, the mock feature acts like a parrot server, responding with the same data on the same received event.
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new({
- url: 'ws://localhost:12345',
- mock: {
- fixtures: {
- 'mock data': {
- data: {
- hello: 'world'
- }
- },
- 'mock data and event': {
- event: 'custom event',
- data: {
- hello: 'mocked world'
- }
- }
- }
- }
- });
-
- ws.$on('$open', function () {
- ws.$emit('parrot event', 'parrot data')
- .$emit('mock data')
- .$emit('mock data and event');
- })
- .$on('parrot event', function (message) {
- console.log(message); // it prints 'parrot data'
- })
- .$on('mock data', function (message) {
- console.log(message); // it prints '{hello: 'world'}'
- })
- .$on('custom event', function (message) {
- console.log(message); // it prints '{hello: 'mocked world'}'
- });
-```
-
-Fixtures can be loaded through an HTTP request.
-In fact, it be useful to have those in a JSON file or created by the webserver:
-
-```javascript
-angular.run(function ($websocket) {
- var ws = $websocket.$new({
- url: 'ws://localhost:12345',
- mock: {
- fixtures: '/fixtures.json' // fixtures are located in a file or calculated at run-time by the web server
- }
- });
-
- // Now you're ready to use fixtures because the websocket will be available only when the fixtures are loaded
-});
-```
