PhoenixClient

Usage

PhoenixClient is ready for use with Phoenix Framework v1.0.0. The PhoenixClient enables communication with a phoenix framework web project through the use of channels over websocket.

Learn more about the Phoenix Framework at http://www.phoenixframework.org/

Socket Connection

PhxSocket *socket = [[PhxSocket alloc] initWithURL:url heartbeatInterval:20];
[socket connectWithParams:@{@"user_id":1234}]

Socket Hooks

[socket onClose:^(void) {
  NSLog(@"the connection dropped");
}];

[socket onError:^(id error) {
  NSLog(@"there was an error with the connection!");
}];

Channels

PhxChannel *chan = [[PhxChannel alloc] initWithSocket:socket topic:@"rooms:123" params:@{@"token":roomToken}];
[chan onEvent:@"new_msg" callback:^(id message) {
  NSLog(@"Got message %@", message);
}];

Channel Hooks

[chan onClose:^(void) {
  NSLog(@"the channel has gone away gracefully");
}];

[chan onError:^(id error) {
  NSLog(@"there was an error!");
}];

Joining Channels

id join = [chan join];
[join onReceive:@"ok" callback:^(id messages) {
  NSLog(@"catching up %@", messages);
}];
[join onReceive:@"error" callback:^(id reason) {
  NSLog(@"failed join %@", reason);
}];
[join after:10000 callback:^(void) {
  NSLog(@"Networking issue. Still waiting...");
}];

Pushing Messages

PhxPush* push = [chan pushEvent:@"new_msg" payload:@{@"Some Message"}];
[push onReceive:@"ok" callback:^(id message) {
  NSLog(@"created message %@", message);
}];
[push onReceive:@"error" callback:^(id reason) {
  NSLog(@"create failed %@", reason);
}];
[push after:10000 callback:^(void) {
  NSLog(@"Networking issue. Still waiting...");
}];
