tcp_framer

TCP Framer -- Frames raw TCP messages

Usage

Create the framer

var framer = require('tcp_framer');

Mix in the framer into your socket and wait for the message event:

var server = net.createServer(function (socket) {
	framer.frame(socket);
	
	socket.on('message', function(msg) {
		console.log('This is the full message %s',msg);
	})
});

For sending a message with a frame header call the writeMessage method:

socket.writeMessage("Lorem Ipsum Blah Di Blah…");

Install

npm install tcp_framer
