Create a Server

On one machine you want to create a server like this:

var serverSettings = {
    port: port
};

var server = new nsunite.Server(serverSettings);

server.on('join', function(data, socket) {
    console.log('new join event: ', data);
});

server.on('clientSays', function(data) {
    console.log('clientSays: ', data);
});

server.on('ready', function() {
    console.log('server is ready');
});

server.start();

Create a Client

On lots of other machines you want to create clients like this:

var client = new nsunite.Client(clientSettings);

client.on('ready', function() {
    client.says('wooooo');

    client.says('start the car!');
});

client.on('hears', function(data) {
    console.log('received data: ', data);
});

client.connect();
