dgram-browserify - npm explorer

Kind of udp support for the browser : replace the dgram module. Behind the scene, a socket.io/udp proxy makes this possible.

dgram-browserify is a wrapper around simudp for automatic browserify support.

Be careful, for the moment, the main browserify version provides a broken implementation of Buffer. That's why this version should be used..

$3

bash

$ npm install dgram-browserify





$3



Server-side, the proxy server should be launched :

js

var server = require('http').createServer();



require('dgram-browserify').listen(server);



server.listen(8080);





Note : see listen options



Browser-side with browserify :

js

var dgram = require('dgram');



//be sure Buffer is present

var Buffer = require('buffer').Buffer;



var socket = dgram.createSocket('udp4');



var hello = new Buffer('hello');

socket.send(hello, 0, hello.length, 3000, 'anywhere.com');



socket.on('message', function(buf, rinfo) {

  //...

});



//you've understood, it's dgram for the browser...
