coterminous-js-messageport
A transport for use with Message Ports such as WebWorkers
Useage in the Worker
Coterminous.root({
//... your exposed api functions here
hello : function(){return "world";}
});
onconnect = function(e) {
Coterminous.connectTransport(new MessagePortTransport(e.ports[0]));
}
Useage in the Browser
var worker = new SharedWorker('worker.js');
Coterminous.connect(new MessagePortTransport(worker.port)).then(function(remoteInterface)
{
//do stuff
remoteInterface.hello().then(function(response)
{
console.log(response);
});
});
Changing Direction
Connect - connects and gets the root object
ConnectTransport - just connects
You can swap these around to suit your needs, worker going to call the webpage? use connect. api calls in both directions? sure! Use connect in both places.
