SUSPENDED

This module requires "Embedded Binary" be enabled via xcodebuild command, and fixing this JIRA ticket would make it happen: https://jira.appcelerator.org/browse/TIMOB-23570

TiSocketIOClient

Socket.io client for Appcelerator Titanium

Finally you can play with Socket.io 1.x together with Appcelerator Titanium!

Requirements

Titanium SDK 5.4.0 or later
Hyperloop module (https://github.com/appcelerator/hyperloop-examples) 1.2 or later
Ending poverty later
Curing diseases laster
Living in peace loving with passion, and lowering the cost of cable.. later

Install TiSocketIOClient

Copy iphone/ro.toshi.ti.mod.tisocketio-iphone-0.0.1.zip to your project directory and edit tiapp.xml.

  <modules>
    <module platform="iphone">ro.toshi.ti.mod.tisocketio</module>
  </modules>

Install Hyperloop module

Clone Hyperloop examples project.

$ git clone https://github.com/appcelerator/hyperloop-examples.git
$ cd hyperloop-examples

Copy plugins/hyperloop and modules/{android,iphone}/hyperloop to your project.

$ cp -r plugins/hyperloop $PROJECT_DIR/plugins/
$ mkdir -p $PROJECT_DIR/modules/{iphone,android}
$ cp -r modules/iphone/hyperloop $PROJECT_DIR/modules/iphone/
$ cp -r modules/android/hyperloop $PROJECT_DIR/modules/android/

Edit tiapp.xml.

Enable SDK 5.4.0.

<sdk-version>5.4.0.v20160617074028</sdk-version>

Setup Hyperloop to enable Swift

Add appc.js to your project. The file appc.js should be placed under your project directory.

module.exports = {
  hyperloop: {
    ios: {
			thirdparty: {
				'MyFramework': {
					source: ['src'],
					header: 'src',
					resource: 'src'
				}
			},
      xcodebuild: {
        flags: {
          LD_RUNPATH_SEARCH_PATHS: "$(inherited) /PATH/TO/SocketIOClientSwift.framework/DIR"
        }
      }
    }           
  }
};

You can find your SocketIOClientSwift.framework under TiSocketIOClient/iphone/.

Add src directory.

$ mkdir $PROJECT_DIR/src

Add MySwift.swift under the src directory for the MAGIC.

import UIKit

public class MySwiftView : UIImageView {
  convenience init () {
    self.init()
  }
}

Voila, now you can build your app.

$ appc ti build -p ios

Example

var socket, io;

// Hyperloop Magic Part: Actually these lines do nothing to your app.
var MySwiftView = require('MyFramework/MySwiftView');
var CGRectMake = require('CoreGraphics').CGRectMake;

// Socket.io
var socket, io;

io = require('ro.toshi.ti.mod.tisocketio');
socket = io.createSocket({
  url: 'http://localhost:9999/'
});

socket.on('connect', function(){
  label.text = "connected";
  socket.emit('message', {message: "hi"});
});

socket.on('serverPush', function(e){
  label.text = e.message;
});

socket.connect();

win.addEventListener('close', function(){
  socket.disconnect();
});
