-
-## Usage
-
-Use TypeScript for best in class instellisense.
-
-Under the hood we use socket.io and shortid for managed data exchange.
-
-### Serverside
-
-```typescript
-import * as smartsocket from 'smartsocket';
-import * as q from q; // q is a promise library
-
-// The "Smartsocket" listens on a port and can receive new "SocketConnection" requests.
-let mySmartsocket = new smartsocket.Smartsocket({
-  port: 3000 // the port smartsocket will listen on
-});
-
-// optional:
-// run this with anothoer existing server like express
-declare var someExpressServer; // read the express docs about how express actually works
-mySmartsocket.setServer(someExpressServer);
-
-// A "SocketRole" can be referenced by "SocketFunction"s.
-// All "SocketRequest"s carry authentication data for a specific "SocketRole".
-// "SocketFunction"s know which "SocketRole"s are allowed to execute them
-let mySocketRole = new smartsocket.SocketRole({
-  name: 'someRoleName',
-  passwordHash: 'someHashedString'
-});
-
-// A "SocketFunction" executes a referenced function and passes in any data of the corresponding "SocketRequest".
-// The referenced function must return a promise and resolve with data of type any.
-// Any "SocketRequest" carries a unique identifier. If the referenced function's promise resolved any passed on argument will be returned to the requesting party
-let testSocketFunction1 = new smartsocket.SocketFunction({
-  funcName: 'testSocketFunction1',
-  funcDef: data => {
-    console.log('testSocketFunction1 executed successfully!');
-  },
-  allowedRoles: [mySocketRole] // all roles that have access to a specific function
-});
-
-// A "Smartsocket" exposes a .clientCall() that gets
-// 1. the name of the "SocketFunction" on the client side
-// 2. the data to pass in
-// 3. And a target "SocketConnection" (there can be multiple connections at once)
-// any unique id association is done internally
-mySmartsocket.clientCall('restart', data, someTargetConnection).then(responseData => {});
-```
-
-#### Client side
-
-```typescript
-import * as smartsocket from 'smartsocket';
-
-// A "SmartsocketClient" is different from a "Smartsocket" in that it doesn't expose any public address.
-// Thus any new "SocketConnection"s must be innitiated from a "SmartsocketClient".
-let testSmartsocketClient = new smartsocket.SmartsocketClient({
-  port: testConfig.port,
-  url: 'http://localhost',
-  password: 'testPassword',
-  alias: 'testClient1',
-  role: 'testRole1'
-});
-
-// You can .connect() and .disconnect() from a "Smartsocket"
-testSmartsocketClient.connect().then(() => {
-  done();
-});
-
-// The client can also specify "SocketFunction"s. It can also specify "SocketRole"s in case a client connects to multiple servers at once
-let testSocketFunction2 = new smartsocket.SocketFunction({
-  funcName: 'testSocketFunction2',
-  funcDef: data => {}, // the function to execute, has to return promise
-  allowedRoles: []
-});
-
-// A "SmartsocketClient" can call functions on the serverside using .serverCall() analog to the "Smartsocket"'s .clientCall method.
-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.

+# @push.rocks/smartsocket
+easy and secure websocket communication
+
+## Install
+
+To install @push.rocks/smartsocket, you can use npm or yarn as follows:
+
+```shell
+npm install @push.rocks/smartsocket --save
+```
+or
+```shell
+yarn add @push.rocks/smartsocket
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+@push.rocks/smartsocket offers a robust solution for easy and secure WebSocket communication, utilizing Typescript for clean and maintainable code. Below are comprehensive examples covering various scenarios and features provided by the module.
+
+### Getting Started
+
+First, ensure you've installed the module as shown in the "Install" section. Once installed, you can start using @push.rocks/smartsocket in your project.
+
+### Setting Up a WebSocket Server
+
+To create a WebSocket server that clients can connect to:
+
+```typescript
+import { Smartsocket } from '@push.rocks/smartsocket';
+
+// Create a new instance of Smartsocket for the server.
+const server = new Smartsocket({ alias: 'myServer' });
+
+// Define a SocketFunction that clients can call
+server.addSocketFunction({
+  funcName: 'greet',
+  funcDef: async (data) => {
+    console.log(`Server received: ${data.message}`);
+    return { reply: `Hello, ${data.name}!` };
+  }
+});
+
+// Start the Smartsocket server
+server.start().then(() => {
+  console.log('WebSocket server is running...');
+});
+```
+
+### Creating a WebSocket Client
+
+Create a client that connects to the WebSocket server and interacts with it:
+
+```typescript
+import { SmartsocketClient } from '@push.rocks/smartsocket';
+
+// Create a SmartsocketClient instance and connect to the server
+const client = new SmartsocketClient({
+  url: 'ws://localhost',
+  port: 3000,
+  alias: 'myClient'
+});
+
+client.connect().then(() => {
+  console.log('Connected to WebSocket server');
+});
+
+// Define a function to call the server's 'greet' function
+async function greetServer(name) {
+  const response = await client.serverCall('greet', { name: name, message: 'Hello!' });
+  console.log(`Server replied: ${response.reply}`);
+}
+
+// Use the function
+greetServer('Alice');
+```
+
+### Handling Disconnections and Reconnections
+
+@push.rocks/smartsocket provides mechanisms to handle client disconnections and attempt reconnections:
+
+```typescript
+client.on('disconnect', () => {
+  console.log('Disconnected from server. Attempting to reconnect...');
+  client.connect();
+});
+```
+
+### Sending Binary Data
+
+The library supports the transmission of binary data efficiently:
+
+```typescript
+import fs from 'fs';
+
+// Function to send a binary file to the server
+async function sendBinaryData(filePath) {
+  const fileBuffer = fs.readFileSync(filePath);
+  await client.serverCall('sendFile', { file: fileBuffer });
+}
+
+sendBinaryData('./path/to/your/file.png');
+```
+
+### Securing Your WebSocket Communication
+
+@push.rocks/smartsocket leverages secure WebSocket (WSS) connections to ensure that data transferred between the client and server is encrypted. When setting up your Smartsocket server or client, use `wss://` in your URL to enable secure communication.
+
+### Advanced Usage
+
+#### Mesh Networking
+
+@push.rocks/smartsocket allows for the creation of complex mesh network configurations, enabling servers to communicate with other servers, forming a robust network with multiple nodes.
+
+#### Scaling with @push.rocks/smartsocket
+
+To scale your WebSocket services, you can utilize load balancers and ensure your @push.rocks/smartsocket instances are stateless to allow for horizontal scaling.
+
+### Conclusion
+
+This guide has covered how to set up basic WebSocket communication with @push.rocks/smartsocket, handle disconnections/reconnections, secure your communication, send binary data, and briefly touched on advanced concepts like mesh networking and scaling.
+
+For more detailed documentation, visit [the official @push.rocks/smartsocket GitLab repository](https://gitlab.com/pushrocks/smartsocket).
+
+Remember, WebSocket communication with @push.rocks/smartsocket is not only about sending and receiving messages. It's about creating a fast, reliable, and secure communication channel for your real-time applications.
+
+Happy coding!
+
+---
+
+Please note, the documentation above is a starting point. Depending on the complexity and requirements of your application, you may need to explore more features and configurations provided by @push.rocks/smartsocket. Always refer to the official documentation for the most current information and best practices.
