Jyn

A simple, fun, fully asynchronous web socket server

Install

jyn

That's it. Really.

Handling requests

jyn is built on Mädūl. It bootstraps and invokes the madul specified by the action property of the JSON web socket request, executes the method requested, and returns the results.

What does this look like in practice?

1. mkdir ~/jyn_test && cd ~/jyn_test
2. npm install -g wscat
3. jyn
4. echo 'const madul = { greet: ({ name }) => `Hello ${name}!` }\n' > ./casian.js
5. wscat -c ws://localhost:1138
6. {"action": "casian.greet", "name": "World"}

This should result in the response {"result": "Hello World!"}
