eventric-remote-socketio-endpoint

eventric Socket.IO remote endpoint

This module is a Socket.IO/Websocket based adapter for the eventric remote endpoint interface. Use it in combination with eventric-remote-socketio-client in order to communicate with remote contexts via Websockets (client to server and server to server).

API

initialize(options)

Initializes the endpoint. Returns a promise which resolves when the initialization is finished. Two optional options may be passed into the function:

1. ioInstance: an instance of a Socket.IO server; if not given, a new one will be spawned automatically
2. rpcRequestMiddleware(rpcRequest, socket): a middleware function for processing rpc requests; the function must return a Promise which can reject in order to cancel the RPC request

Note: The middleware can be used to enrich data of RPC requests or to perform some kind of access control / authorization.
