Reconnecting Websocket
Implementation of an isomorphic automatically reconnecting websocket client.
Message format is JSON. Works perfectly with Node.js servers, script or Server Side Rendering.
Install
npm i wsrecon
Usage
The client wraps the normal WebSocket browser client or uses the ws Node.js client if not in the browser.
const client = require('wsrecon')
// Awaits the connection ready
const socket = await client('ws://localhost:6000', {
// Reconnect timeout in ms, set to false to not automatically reconnect
timeout: 1
})
// Register events like this
socket.on('open', (event) => {
console.log('Connection open')
})
socket.on('close', (event) => {
console.log('Connection closed')
})
socket.on('error', (event) => {
console.log('Connection error')
})
// Data from server arrives here automatically JSON parsed
socket.on('message', (data, event) => {
console.log('Received message', data)
})
// Send message, data arrives in message event
socket.send({ hello: 'socket' })MIT licensed. Enjoy!
