Recreate stream in case of error
To get started, install stream-recreate
package via npm
::
% npm install stream-recreate
The basic usage example is as follows::
var recreate = require('stream-recreate'),
websocket = require('websocket-stream');
var socket = recreate(function() {
return websocket('ws://localhost:3000');
});
socket.write('data');
Returned socket
stream will recreate underlying websocket
stream if end
or
error
event is occurred. It uses backoff module to control the
interval between attempts to recreate a stream.
To shutdown cleanly call socket.end()
.
Note that we can call socket.write()
right after the creation even if
underlying websocket()
stream isn't open yet — stream-recreate
returns
another stream which buffers writes and drains buffers on open
of an
underlying stream.
