public interface Socket

A Socket represent a connection to a remote server. A Socket abstract the transport used, the client will negotiate the best Request.transport() to communicate with the remote Server. As simple as

     Client client = AtmosphereClientFactory.getDefault().newclient();

     RequestBuilder request = client.newRequestBuilder()
             .method(Request.METHOD.GET)
             .uri(targetUrl + "/suspend")
             .encoder(new Encoder<String, Reader>() {        // Stream the request body
                 @Override
                 public Reader encode(String s) {
                     return new StringReader(s);
                 }
             })
             .decoder(new Decoder<String, Reader>() {
                  @Override
                 public Reader decode(String s) {
                     return new StringReader(s);
                 }
             })
             .transport(WEBSOCKET)                        // Try WebSocket
             .transport(LONG_POLLING);                    // Fallback to Long-Polling

     Socket socket = client.create();
     socket.on("message", new Function<String>() {
         @Override
         public void on(Reader r) {
             // Read the response
         }
     }).on(new Function<IOException>() {

         @Override
         public void on(Throwable t) {
             // Some IOException occurred
         }

     }).open(request.build()).fire("echo");

Nested Class Summary

static class

Socket.EVENT

Method Summary

void	close() Close this Socket
Future	fire(Object data) Send data to the remote Server.
Socket	on(Function<? extends Object> function) Associate a Function with the Socket.
Socket	on(String functionMessage, Function<? extends Object> function) Associate a Function with the Socket.
Socket	open(Request request) Connect to the remote Server using the Request's information.

Method Detail

fire

Future fire(Object data)
            throws IOException

Send data to the remote Server.

Parameters:

data -

Returns:

a Future

Throws:

IOException

on

Socket on(Function<? extends Object> function)

Associate a Function with the Socket. When a response is received, the library will try to associated the decoded message (decoded by Decoder) to the defined type of the Function

Parameters:

function - a Function

Returns:

this

on

Socket on(String functionMessage,
          Function<? extends Object> function)

Associate a Function with the Socket. When a response is received, the library will try to associated the decoded message (decoded by Decoder) to the defined type of the Function. The default messages are defined by Function.MESSAGE but handling of custom message can be done using a FunctionResolver

Parameters:

function - a Function

Returns:

this

open

Socket open(Request request)
            throws IOException

Connect to the remote Server using the Request's information.

Parameters:

request - a Request

Returns:

this

Throws:

IOException

close

void close()

Close this Socket
