module WebsocketRails # Provides a DSL for mapping client events to controller actions. A single event can be mapped to any # number of controllers and actions. You can define your event routes by creating an +events.rb+ file in # your application's +initializers+ directory. The DSL currently consists of a single method, {#subscribe}, # which takes a symbolized event name as the first argument, and a Hash with the controller and method # name as the second argument. # # == Example events.rb file # # located in config/initializers/events.rb # WebsocketRails::Events.describe_events do # subscribe :client_connected, to: ChatController, with_method: :client_connected # subscribe :new_user, to: ChatController, with_method: :new_user # end class Events def self.describe_events(&block) WebsocketRails.route_block = block end attr_reader :classes, :events def initialize(dispatcher) @dispatcher = dispatcher evaluate( WebsocketRails.route_block ) if WebsocketRails.route_block end def routes_for(event,&block) @events[event].each do |klass,method| controller = @classes[klass] block.call( controller, method ) end end def subscribe(event_name,options) klass = options[:to] || raise("Must specify a class for to: option in event route") method = options[:with_method] || raise("Must specify a method for with_method: option in event route") controller = klass.new if @classes[klass].nil? @classes[klass] = controller controller.instance_variable_set(:@_dispatcher,@dispatcher) controller.send :initialize_session if controller.respond_to?(:initialize_session) end @events[event_name] << [klass,method] end def evaluate(block) @events = Hash.new {|h,k| h[k] = Array.new} @classes = Hash.new instance_eval &block end end end
