## Usage
We recommend the use of typescript.
Under the hood we use socket.io and shortid for managed data exchange.
### Serverside
```typescript
import * as smartsocket from "smartsocket";
let mySmartsocket = new smartsocket.Smartsocket({
port: 3000 // the port smartsocket will listen on
});
let mySocketRole = new smartsocket.SocketRole({
name: "someRoleName",
passwordHash: "someHashedString"
});
let testSocketFunction1 = new smartsocket.SocketFunction({
funcName:"testSocketFunction1",
funcDef:(data) => {
}, // the function to execute
allowedRoles:[mySocketRole] // all roles that have access to a specific function
});
mySmartsocket.clientCall("","restart",data,someTargetConnection)
.then((responseData) => {
});
```
#### Client side
```typescript
import * as smartsocket from "smartsocket";
let testSmartsocketClient = new smartsocket.SmartsocketClient({
port: testConfig.port,
url: "http://localhost",
password: "testPassword",
alias: "testClient1",
role: "testRole1"
});
testSmartsocketClient.connect()
.then(() => {
done();
});
let testSocketFunction2 = new smartsocket.SocketFunction({
funcName: "testSocketFunction2",
funcDef: (data) => {}, // the function to execute, has to return promise
allowedRoles:[]
});
let functionCalldata = {
funcName: "",
funcData: {
someKey:"someValue"
}
}
mySmartsocketClient.serverCall("function",functionCallData)
.then((functionResponseData) => { // the functionResponseData comes from the server... awesome, right?
});;
```
> **NOTE:**
you can easily chain dependent requests on either the server or client side with promises.
`data` is always a js object that you can design for your specific needs.
It supports buffers for large binary data network exchange.
