DESCRIPTION

DEPRECATED. Use PocketIO instead <http://github.com/vti/pocketio>.

Plack::Middleware::SocketIO is a server implmentation of SocketIO in Perl.

SocketIO

More information about SocketIO you can find on the website <http://socket.io/>, or on the GitHub <https://github.com/LearnBoost/Socket.IO>.

Transports

All the transports are supported.

    WebSocket
    Adobe(R) Flash(R) Socket
    AJAX long polling
    AJAX multipart streaming
    Forever Iframe
    JSONP Polling

TLS/SSL

For TLS/SSL a secure proxy is needed. "stunnel" or App::TLSMe is recommended.

CONFIGURATIONS

resource

    enable "SocketIO",
        resource => 'socket.io', ...;

Specifies the path prefix under which all the requests are handled. This is done so the rest of your application won't interfere with Socket.IO specific calls.

handler

    enable "SocketIO",
        handler => sub {
            my $socket = shift;

            $socket->on_message(sub {
                my $socket = shift;
            });

            $socket->send_message('hello');
        };

class or instance, method

    enable "SocketIO",
        class => 'MyHandler', method => 'run';

    # or

    enable "SocketIO",
        instance => MyHandler->new(foo => 'bar'), method => 'run';

    package MyHandler;

    sub new { ...  } # or use Moose, Boose, Goose, Doose

    sub run {
        my $self = shift;

        return sub {

            # same code as above
        }
    }

Loads "class" using Plack::Util::load_class, creates a new object or uses a passed "instance" and runs "run" method expecting it to return an anonymous subroutine.
