Client Method list

Constructor

Method name new(config)

Description Create client instance

Input parameters table config - lua table with configuration options:

  • string username - username to display on devices (default: hostname or device's IP address)
  • string ip - ip address to use for server (default: current device's IP address)
  • int tcpPort - port to use for tcp connection (default: 5883)
  • int udpPort - port to use for udp connection (default: 5884)
  • int discoveryPort - port to use for device discovery (default: 5885)
  • int multicast - multicast ip address for device discovery (default: 239.192.1.1)
  • int serverIP - ip address of server, if no discovery needed and can connect tp server directly (default: nil)
  • string connectionType - which connection protocol to use tcp, udp or both (default: 'both')

Example

local serverlink = Client.new({
    username = "ar2rsawseen",
    ip = nil,
    port = 15000,
    multicast = "239.192.1.1",
    serverIP = nil,
    connectionType = "tcp"
})

Start Listening

Method name startListening()

Description Start Listening to server, both when server is broadcasting/multicasting for discovery, or when client is already connected to server (for example, by providing it's ip address)

Stop Listening

Method name stopListening()

Description Stop Listening to server, both when server is broadcasting/multicasting for discovery, or when client is already connected to server

Connect to specified Server

Method name connect(id)

Description When server is broadcasting/multicasting, if client is not yet connected to any server, it recieves new server events with server ID. You need to provide that ID to connect method, to connect to specified server

Input parameters int id - server id received from new server event

Example

serverlink:connect(111222333)

Add Method

Method name addMethod(name, method, scope)

Description Add method which can be called through the network by other devices

Input parameters Input parameters are similar to adding new event listener

string name - name of command to associate with this method, could be simply method name as string

function method - method that will be called from other connected devices. This function will be called by other devices, and all parameters provided by other devices will be passed to this function. Additionally, the last providd parameter will be the source of message - id of device from which message originated

object scope - scope to use for method, if for example using class method and not simple function, you can provide self variable if defined inside class, of class instance if defiend outside class (default: nil)

Example

serverlink:addMethod("draw", self.draw, self)

Call Method

Method name callMethod(...)

Description Call specific method for all connected devices

Input parameters string command - name of command, to call the method associated with this command

Other parameters can be any values, that will be passed to called method

Example

serverlink:callMethod("draw", 100, 200)

Call Method of specific device

Method name callMethodOf(...)

Description Call specific method for specific connected devices

Input parameters string command - name of command, to call the method associated with this command

Other parameters can be any values, that will be passed to called method

Last parameter should be the ID of device, to which to send command

Example

serverlink:callMethodOff("draw", 100, 200, 111222333)

Get devices

Method name getDevices()

Description Get ID of all devices connected to server. Due to limitation, that ID's of devices are retrieved through sockets on the network, this method does not return list of devices, but rather generates multiple "device" events, one for each connected device

Example

serverlink:getDevices()

Close Client

Method name close()

Description Closes the client, disconnects it from server, disabled listening and erases ID. Serves as destructor for the class

Example

serverlink:close()
