I'm new to cyclejs and I'm looking for websocket support and I don't see any (apart from the read only websocket driver from the docs and some 0.1.2 node side npm package).
Am I supposed to create my own driver or am I missing something?
Thanks in advance
Does this page help you?
https://cycle.js.org/drivers.html
Specifically the example code mentioned:
function WSDriver(/* no sinks */) {
return xs.create({
start: listener => {
this.connection = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:4000');
connection.onerror = (err) => {
listener.error(err)
}
connection.onmessage = (msg) => {
listener.next(msg)
}
},
stop: () => {
this.connection.close();
},
});
}
If you add a sink this should be a write and read driver. From their documentation:
Most drivers, like the DOM Driver, take sinks (to describe a write) and return sources (to catch reads). However, we might have valid cases for write-only drivers and read-only drivers.
For instance, the one-liner log driver we just saw above is a write-only driver. Notice how it is a function that does not return any stream, it simply consumes the sink msg$ it receives.
Other drivers only create source streams that emit events to the main(), but don’t take in any sink from main(). An example of such would be a read-only Web Socket driver, drafted below:
