messageport-websocket

npm version Build Status

This package will turn MessagePort into WebSocket.

Background

Instead of learning/using different API for different communication channels, we should unite them into a single interface pattern, either MessagePort or WebSocket.

How to use

const { port1, port2 } = new MessageChannel();
const webSocket = new MessagePortWebSocket(port1);

webSocket.onmessage = event => {
  // Could be either a string or Buffer
  console.log(event.data);
};

webSocket.send('Hello, World!');

Instead of subscribing to onmessage, you can also subscribe using on('message', handler).

Note that when MessagePortWebSocket is constructed, the MessagePort is already established. So we assume Web Socket is already opened, thus, no open event will be emitted.
