Create a server,then use client to connect it. The client will negotiate with server about the tunnel type.(Both sides can create streams in the tunnel) Then the tunnel will be used to transfer stream.

websocket connection
|_one of the tunnel types
   |_stream(s)
      |_data
const {server,client}=require('ws-stream-tunnel');

//server
const tServer=new server({
	port:80,
	perMessageDeflate:false,
});
tServer.on('tunnel_open',t=>{
	console.log('server','new tunnel');

	t.on('stream_open',stream=>{
		console.log('server','stream opened');
		
		//do sth with the stream
		stream.on('data',chunk=>{
			console.log('server','recevied data',chunk)
		});

	}).once('close',()=>{
		console.log('server','tunnel closed')
	})
});


//client
const tClient=new client({
	addr:'ws://127.0.0.1:80',
	mode:'subStream',
});
tClient.on('tunnel_open',tunnel=>{
	console.log('client','tunnel opened');

	tunnel.on('stream_open',stream=>{
		console.log('client','stream opened')
		
		//do sth with the stream
		stream.write('poi');

	}).on('stream_close',stream=>{
		console.log('client','stream closed')
	}).on('error',e=>{
		console.error('client:error',e)
	}).once('close',()=>{
		console.log('client','tunnel closed')
	});

	tunnel.createStream();//create a sub stream
});

Tunnel types

  • subStream : mix multi-streams in one tunnel
  • stream : extends from subStream,but only allows one stream in the tunnel

server

Class : tunnelServer(options)

The server class extends from ws.server,options is the same with here.

Two new event

  • 'tunnel_open' : (new tunnel)
  • 'tunnel_close' : (the closed tunnel)

One more property

  • tunnelHelper : see tunnelHelper below

client

The server class extends from events.

Class : tunnelClient(options)

options

  • mode : tunnel type
  • addr : target ws address
  • ws : options object for ws connection,see here
  • idleTimeout : millisecond before closing the connection,0 presents always keep the connection,defaults to 0
  • keepBrokenTunnel : millisecond before closing the broken tunnel. The tunnel will immediately close if this option is not set

events

  • 'tunnel_open':(tunnel)
  • 'tunnel_close':(tunnel)

properties

  • connectionManager : connectionManager instance
  • tunnelHelper : tunnelHelper instance
  • closed : boolean

getters

  • tunnelID
  • tunnelCreated : boolean
  • tunnel : tunnel of the mode options

methods

close()

close the client

closeTunnel(reason)

close the tunnel,this method will destroy all alive streams,the reason will be emit as the error event to each stream.

requestTunnel(options)

options:

  • mode : see Tunnel types on the top
  • keepBrokenTunnel : see tunnelClient options

If tunnelID exists, the client will attempt to use the tunnel ID to resume the broken tunnel transfer.

Class: tunnelHelper

this class is used in client and server to manage tunnels

properties

  • tunnels : a Map stores all tunnels (tunnelID=>tunnel)
