Simple websocket server
-----------------------

[](#simple-websocket-server)

Fork of [morozovsk/websocket](https://github.com/morozovsk/websocket) for Laravel 4/5 integration.

### Installation

[](#installation)

```
composer require yaro/socket
```

Add to config/app.php:

```
'providers' => array(
//...
    Yaro\Socket\ServiceProvider::class,
//...
),
'aliases' => array(
//...
    'Socket' => Yaro\Socket\Facade::class,
//...
),
```

### Usage

[](#usage)

Sample command:

```
use Illuminate\Console\Command;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Input\InputOption;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Input\InputArgument;

class ChatCommand extends Command
{
    protected $name = 'socket:chat';

    protected $description = "chat command";

    public function fire()
    {
        Socket::init($this->argument('action'), array(
            'class' => 'ChatWebsocketDaemonHandler',
            'pid' => '/tmp/websocket_chat.pid',
            'websocket' => 'tcp://127.0.0.1:8000',
            //'localsocket' => 'tcp://127.0.0.1:8010',
            //'master' => 'tcp://127.0.0.1:8020',
            //'eventDriver' => 'event'
        ));
    } // end fire

    protected function getArguments()
    {
        return array(
            array('action', InputArgument::REQUIRED, 'start|stop|restart'),
        );
    } // end getArguments

    protected function getOptions()
    {
        return array();
    } // end getOptions
}
```

Sample handler class:

```
class ChatWebsocketDaemonHandler extends WebsocketDaemon
{
    protected function onOpen($connectionId, $info)
    {
    }

    protected function onClose($connectionId)
    {
    }

    protected function onMessage($connectionId, $data, $type)
    {
        if (!strlen($data)) {
            return;
        }

        $message = 'user #'. $connectionId .' ('. $this->pid .'): '. strip_tags($data);

        foreach ($this->clients as $idClient => $client) {
            $this->sendToClient($idClient, $message);
        }
    }
}
```

And run your command (command from example):

```
php artisan socket:chat
```

And your js on front will be like this:

```
var ws = new WebSocket("ws://127.0.0.1:8000/");
ws.onopen = function() {
    console.log('socket: open');
};
ws.onclose = function() {
    console.log('socket: close');
};
ws.onmessage = function(evt) {
    console.log(evt.data);
};
```
