angular-sockjs 

SockJS provider for AngularJS.

Based on Brian Ford's angular-socket-io.

Install

1. bower install angular-sockjs
2. Made sure the SockJS client library is loaded.
3. Include the socket.js script provided by this component into your app.
4. Add bd.sockjs as a module dependency to your app.

Usage

This module exposes a socketFactory, which is an API for instantiating
sockets that are integrated with Angular's digest cycle.

$3

``javascript
// in the top-level module of the app
angular.module('myApp', [
'bd.sockjs',
'myApp.MyCtrl'
])
.factory('mySocket', function (socketFactory) {
return socketFactory();
});
`

With that, you can inject your mySocket service into controllers and
other serivices within your application!

$3

Building on the example above:

`javascript
// in the top-level module of the app
angular.module('myApp', [
'bd.sockjs',
'myApp.MyCtrl'
])
.factory('mySocket', function (socketFactory)) {
return socketFactory();
});
`




API

Since the SockJS API uses single event handlers rather than Socket.io's event emitter style, this library provides a lightweight wrapper around the handlers.

$3


Accepts valid socket events: open, close, and message. Returns socket wrapper so multiple calls can be chained.

$3

Handles the same events as socket.setHandler. Returns socket wrapper so multiple calls can be chained.

$3

Sends a socket message.

$3

Attempts to close the socket.

Options

#### socketFactory({socket: })

This option allows you to provide the socket service with a SockJS instance to be used internally.
This is useful if you need to hold a reference to the sockjs object for use elsewhere.

`javascript
angular.module('myApp', [
'bd.sockjs'
])
.factory('mySocket', function (socketFactory) {
var sockjs = new SockJS('http://host');

mySocket = socketFactory({
socket: sockjs
});

return mySocket;
});
`

#### socketFactory({url: })`

This option allows you to provide a URL to pass through to the SockJS constructor.
