A Ruby implementation of the Message Bus client

MessageBusClient

This is a Ruby implementation of the client for message_bus.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'message_bus_client'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install message_bus_client

Usage

The API is mostly equivalent with the JavaScript client:

client = MessageBusClient.new('http://chat.samsaffron.com/')
client.subscribe('/message') do |payload|
  # Do stuff
end

client.start
client.pause
client.resume
client.stop

Both Long Polling and normal polling are supported:

MessageBusClient.long_polling = true # false to disable
MessageBusClient.poll_interval = 15 # seconds

Development

After checking out the repo, run bundle install to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests.

If you are running Windows, Ruby is not able to kill the server process. Run it separately using rake server before running the specs.
