Dart client to communicate with Centrifuge and Centrifugo from Flutter and VM over dart:io WebSocket

Build Status Coverage Status

Example #

Examples:

  • example\flutter_app simple chat application
  • example\console simple console application

Usage #

Create client:

import 'package:centrifuge/centrifuge.dart' as centrifuge;

final client = centrifuge.createClient("ws://localhost:8000/connection/websocket?format=protobuf");

Note that ?format=protobuf is required because this library only works with Protobuf protocol.

Connect to server:

client.connect();

Note that .connect() method is asynchronous. This means that client will be properly connected and authenticated on server at some point in future. To handle connect and disconnect events you can listen to connectStream and disconnectStream:

client.connectStream.listen(onEvent);
client.disconnectStream.listen(onEvent);
client.connect();

Connect and disconnect events can happen many times throughout client lifetime.

Subscribe to channel:

final subscription = client.getSubscription(channel);

subscription.publishStream.listen(onEvent);
subscription.joinStream.listen(onEvent);  
subscription.leaveStream.listen(onEvent);
subscription.subscribeSuccessStream.listen(onEvent);
subscription.subscribeErrorStream.listen(onEvent);
subscription.unsubscribeStream.listen(onEvent);

subscription.subscribe();

Publish:

final output = jsonEncode({'input': message});
final data = utf8.encode(output);
await subscription.publish(data);
