Server

Requirements

• node.js
• Socket IO & Socket IO client (> npm install socket.io && npm install socket.io-client)

Start server

Create ./js/server/remoteall_server.config.js (can be based on ./js/server/remoteall_server.config.example.js) and run it on your %NODEJS_SERVER%

> node ./js/server/remoteall_server.js

Clients

Both (or more) clients (remote controller and controlled app) should connect to server with one uniqueSessionId and appId If You need to do something after connection You can do it in callback where context current remoteAll

var ra = new remoteAll(REMOTE_ALL_CONFIG, function (context, args) {
    // If You need to do something after connection
});

where REMOTE_ALL_CONFIG parts for %NODEJS_SERVER% @see config.example.js

var REMOTE_ALL_CONFIG = {
    appId : 'appNan',
    uniqueSessionId : 'SecretStringForConnection',
    url : null, //if defined @host@ will be ignored
    host : {
        protocol:'http',
        domain:'localhost',
        port:'8888'
    }
}

clients will work with %NODEJS_SERVER% = http://localhost:8888/

Remote controller

RC can send codes or data throw remoteall server

ra.sendCode({code:'xxx_code',index:'2'});

or

ra.sendCode('CODE_XXX');

Controlled APP

You should add callback for event recive_code where data contains {code:'xxx_code',index:'2'} or 'CODE_XXX' received from RC and session_id contains ID of session used to transfer information

ra.on('recive_code', function (data, session_id) {
  //do something
})

so you can add more than one event handler

ra.on('recive_code', function (data, session_id) {
  //do something else
})

or u can delete all handlers

ra.off('recive_code')

NonJS client API

If you need to send some data for Controlled APP using http/POST request u should send some params to %NODEJS_SERVER%/emit:

• app(string) - appId
• session_id(string) - uniqueSessionId
• emit_data(json|string|number`) - data to send

MultiSession

Clients can be connected to additional sessions

ra.addSession('additionalSessionId')
ra.addSession('additionalSessionId2')

also clients can disconnect from session(s)

ra.addSession('additionalSessionId2')

Next code will be recieved by clients connected to session with additionalSessionId only

ra.sendCode('CODE_YYY','additionalSessionId')
