listen and connect methods for exposing a duplex stream to the network
This was extracted from dnode
Example
var listenConnect = require('listen-connect')
rpcServer.listen = listenConnect.createListen(rpcServer.createStream)
rpcClient.connect = listenConnect.createConnect(rpcClient.createStream)
rpcServer.listen(4000, function() {
console.log('RPC server listening on port 4000')
})
rpcClient.connect(4000, function() {
console.log('RPC client connected to 4000')
})
Usage
port/host/path arguments parsed with parse-connection-args
listenConnect.createListen(fn)
Returns a listen
function that accepts port/host/path arguments. When called it will create a new server with net.createServer
and expose the stream on the provided port/host/path.
var listen = listenConnect.createListen(function() {
return someDuplexStream()
})
var server = listen(4000)
// Clean up server with close
server.close()
listenConnect.createConnect(fn)
Returns a connect
function that accepts port/host/path arguments. When called it will create a new connection, with net.connect
, to the provided port/host/path.
var connect = listenConnect.createConnect(function() {
return someDuplexStream()
})
var client = connect('localhost:4000')
// Clean up client with destroy
client.destroy()
