Constructor

Arguments between [ ] are optional.

Cocker( [ Object options ] )

or

new Cocker( [ Object options ] )

Options

NOTE: default options are listed.

It accepts a configuration hash/object:

option
{
 , address : Object
 , connection : Object
 , reconnection : Object
}
option.address (default)
{
    host : '127.0.0.1'
    , port : 0
    , family : null
    /*
     * Specify an IPC endpoint, like a unix domain socket, if a string is
     * provided, the TCP-specific options above are ignored.
     * For further details, see "Identifying paths for IPC connections" in 
     * the /api/net section.
     */
    , path : null
 }
option.address (additional options for net.Socket)
{   
    // should connect from
    localAddress : undefined
    , localPort: undefined
    // custom lookup and hints
    , lookup : dns.lookup 
    , hints : 0
 }
option.connection
 {
    encoding : null
    , keepAlive : true
    , timeout : 0
    , noDelay : true
    , allowHalfOpen : false
 }
option.reconnection
 {
    trials : 3
    , interval : 1000
    /*
     * A value to use for calculating the pause between two
     * connection attempts. Default value is the golden ratio.
     * Final value is calculated as:
     * interval * Math.pow( factor, curr.attempts + 1 )
     */
    , factor : ( Math.sqrt( 5 ) + 1 ) / 2
 }

Properties

NOTE: do not mess up with these properties.

a property that holds the current configuration object
Cocker.options : Object
current number of connection attempts
Cocker.attempts : Number
a flag to signal the current status of the connection
Cocker.lost : Boolean
a flag used to disable reconnection (after #hunt Promise resolution)
Cocker.stop : Boolean
current lapse of time (to wait) until the next connection attempt
Cocker.lapse : Number

Methods

all the methods from net.Socket module are inherited.

name description
bye end the connection.
run connect to a socket or attempting to.
die end the connection. (Promise)
hunt connect to a socket or attempting to. (Promise)
prey connect using a list of hosts. (Promise)
watch re-connect after losing the current connection. (Promise)

Arguments between [ ] are optional.

Cocker.bye

end the connection (without re-connecting).
'bye' : function ( [ Buffer | String data [, String enc ] ] ) : undefined

Cocker.run

connect to a socket or attempting to (k times).
// it optionally accepts a cocker option object to reconfigure the socket.
'run' : function ( [ Object cocker_options ] ) : undefined

Cocker.die

end the connection (without re-connecting).
// Promise will not be resolved until 'lost' event
'die' : function ( [ Buffer | String data [, String enc ] ] ) : Promise

Cocker.hunt

connect to a socket or attempting to (k times).
/*
 * Try to connect to a socket. Promise will not be resolved until 'online',
 * rejected after 'lost' event; it optionally accepts a cocker option object
 * to reconfigure the socket.
 */
'hunt' : function ( [ Object cocker_options ] ) : Promise

Cocker.prey

try to connect until success, using a list of optional hosts/config.
/*
 * It recursively scan a list, using #hunt Promises. The #prey Promise will 
 * not be resolved until a connection will be made, definitively rejected
 * when no hosts had accepted one. 
 * Every host in the list should be an object like Cocker.options.address.
 */
'prey' : function ( Array hosts ) : Promise

Cocker.watch

try to re-connect after losing the current connection.
/*
 * When the current established connection is lost, it tries to reconnect.
 * This Promise has the same resolution as for #hunt, the only difference is
 * that this Promise was "registered" on socket disconnection, then it will be
 * resolved/rejected only after capturing a 'lost' event from the current
 * broken connection. See examples.
 */
'watch' : function ( [ Object cocker_options ] ) : Promise

Events

all the events from net.Socket module are inherited.

!online: connection was established.
// when: soon after socket !connect event
'online' : function ( Object address  )
!offline: connection is down.
// when: on the first !close event for the current socket
'offline' : function ( Object address  )
!attempt: current connection attempt.
// when: after !offline, on every connection attempt, until !lost or !online 
'attempt' : function ( Number t, Object address, Number lapse )
!lost: no other attempts will be made, connection is definitively lost.
// when: soon before the last !close event.
'lost' : function ( Number t, Object address, Number lapse )

Examples

Simple Mode

Native Promises
