+# Changelog
+
+## 2025-12-03 - 3.0.0 - BREAKING CHANGE(smartsocket)
+Replace setExternalServer with hooks-based SmartServe integration and refactor SocketServer to support standalone and hooks modes
+
+- Remove setExternalServer API and add getSmartserveWebSocketHooks on Smartsocket to provide SmartServe-compatible websocket hooks.
+- SocketServer.start now becomes a no-op when no port is provided (hooks mode). When a port is set, it starts a standalone HTTP + ws server as before.
+- Introduce an adapter (createWsLikeFromPeer) to adapt SmartServe peers to a WebSocket-like interface and route onMessage/onClose/onError via the adapter.
+- Dispatch smartserve messages through the adapter: text/binary handling for onMessage, and dispatchClose/dispatchError for close/error events.
+- Update tests: add smartserve integration test (test.smartserve.ts), adjust tagging test cleanup to stop client and delay before exit, remove outdated expressserver test.
+
+## 2025-03-10 - 2.1.0 - feat(SmartsocketClient)
+Improve client reconnection logic with exponential backoff and jitter; update socket.io and @types/node dependencies

+- Bump @types/node from ^20.12.7 to ^22.13.10

+
+Easy and secure WebSocket communication with native WebSocket support 🔌
+
+## Features
+
+- 🚀 **Native WebSocket** - Uses native WebSocket API (browser) and `ws` library (Node.js)
+- 🔄 **Auto Reconnection** - Exponential backoff with configurable retry limits
+- 📡 **RPC-style Function Calls** - Define and call functions across server/client
+- 🏷️ **Connection Tagging** - Tag connections for easy identification and routing
+- 🔗 **Smartserve Integration** - Works seamlessly with `@push.rocks/smartserve`
+- 🔒 **Secure Communication** - WSS support for encrypted connections
+

+
+## Install
+
+```shell
+npm install @push.rocks/smartsocket --save
+```
+
+or with pnpm:
+
+```shell
+pnpm add @push.rocks/smartsocket
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+### Quick Start - Server
+
+```typescript
+import { Smartsocket, SocketFunction } from '@push.rocks/smartsocket';
+
+// Create server
+const server = new Smartsocket({
+  alias: 'myServer',
+  port: 3000
+});
+
+// Define a function that clients can call
+const greetFunction = new SocketFunction({
+  funcName: 'greet',
+  funcDef: async (data, socketConnection) => {
+    console.log(`Received greeting from ${data.name}`);
+    return { message: `Hello, ${data.name}!` };
+  }
+});
+
+server.addSocketFunction(greetFunction);
+
+// Start the server
+await server.start();
+console.log('WebSocket server running on port 3000');
+```
+
+### Quick Start - Client
+
+```typescript
+import { SmartsocketClient } from '@push.rocks/smartsocket';
+
+// Create client
+const client = new SmartsocketClient({
+  url: 'http://localhost',
+  port: 3000,
+  alias: 'myClient',
+  autoReconnect: true
+});
+
+// Connect to server
+await client.connect();
+
+// Call server function
+const response = await client.serverCall('greet', { name: 'Alice' });
+console.log(response.message); // "Hello, Alice!"
+```
+
+### Connection Options
+
+The `SmartsocketClient` supports several configuration options:
+
+```typescript
+const client = new SmartsocketClient({
+  url: 'http://localhost',           // Server URL (http/https)
+  port: 3000,                         // Server port
+  alias: 'myClient',                  // Client identifier
+  autoReconnect: true,                // Auto-reconnect on disconnect
+  maxRetries: 100,                    // Max reconnection attempts (default: 100)
+  initialBackoffDelay: 1000,          // Initial backoff in ms (default: 1000)
+  maxBackoffDelay: 60000              // Max backoff in ms (default: 60000)
+});
+```
+
+### Two-Way Function Calls
+
+Both server and client can define and call functions on each other:
+
+```typescript
+// Server calling client
+const clientFunction = new SocketFunction({
+  funcName: 'clientTask',
+  funcDef: async (data) => {
+    return { result: 'Task completed' };
+  }
+});
+
+// On client
+client.addSocketFunction(clientFunction);
+
+// On server - call the client
+const socketConnection = server.socketConnections.findSync(conn => conn.alias === 'myClient');
+const result = await server.clientCall('clientTask', { task: 'doSomething' }, socketConnection);
+```
+
+### Connection Tagging
+
+Tag connections to identify and group them:
+
+```typescript
+// On client
+await client.addTag({
+  id: 'role',
+  payload: 'admin'
+});
+
+// On server - find tagged connections
+const adminConnections = server.socketConnections.getArray().filter(async conn => {
+  const tag = await conn.getTagById('role');
+  return tag?.payload === 'admin';
+});
+
+// Server can also tag connections
+await socketConnection.addTag({
+  id: 'verified',
+  payload: true
+});
+```
+
+### Integration with Smartserve
+
+Use smartsocket with `@push.rocks/smartserve` for advanced HTTP/WebSocket handling:
+
+```typescript
+import { Smartserve } from '@push.rocks/smartserve';
+import { Smartsocket } from '@push.rocks/smartsocket';
+
+const smartserve = new Smartserve({ port: 3000 });
+const smartsocket = new Smartsocket({ alias: 'myServer' });
+
+// Set smartserve as external server
+await smartsocket.setExternalServer('smartserve', smartserve);
+
+// Get WebSocket hooks for smartserve
+const wsHooks = smartsocket.socketServer.getSmartserveWebSocketHooks();
+
+// Configure smartserve with the hooks
+// (see smartserve documentation for integration details)
+```
+
+### Handling Disconnections
+
+The client automatically handles reconnection with exponential backoff:
+
+```typescript
+const client = new SmartsocketClient({
+  url: 'http://localhost',
+  port: 3000,
+  alias: 'myClient',
+  autoReconnect: true,
+  maxRetries: 10,
+  initialBackoffDelay: 500,
+  maxBackoffDelay: 5000
+});
+
+// Listen for connection status changes
+client.eventSubject.subscribe(status => {
+  console.log('Connection status:', status);
+  // Status can be: 'new', 'connecting', 'connected', 'disconnecting', 'timedOut'
+});
+
+await client.connect();
+
+// Manually disconnect without auto-reconnect
+await client.disconnect();
+
+// Stop the client completely (disables auto-reconnect)
+await client.stop();
+```
+
+### Secure Connections (WSS)
+
+For secure WebSocket connections, use HTTPS URLs:
+
+```typescript
+const client = new SmartsocketClient({
+  url: 'https://secure.example.com',  // HTTPS triggers WSS
+  port: 443,
+  alias: 'secureClient'
+});
+```
+
+### TypedRequest Integration
+
+For strongly-typed RPC calls, define interfaces:
+
+```typescript
+interface IGreetRequest {
+  method: 'greet';
+  request: { name: string };
+  response: { message: string };
+}
+
+// Type-safe server call
+const response = await client.serverCall<IGreetRequest>('greet', { name: 'Bob' });
+// response is typed as { message: string }
+```
+
