Wray, faye client for Go

Wray is a client for the Faye publish-subscribe messaging service by James Coglan.

Current status

In progress.

Getting Started

Wray is only a client for Faye. You will need to setup a server using Ruby or Node.js first. Instructions that can be found on the Faye project pages.

###Subscribing to channels

package main

import "github.com/pythonandchips/wray"
import "fmt"

func main() {
  //register the types of transport you want available. Only long-polling is currently supported
  wray.RegisterTransports([]gofaye.Transport{ &gofaye.HttpTransport{} })

  //create a new client
  client := wray.NewFayeClient("http://localhost:5000/faye")

  //subscribe to the channels you want to listen to
  client.Subscribe("/foo", false, func(message wray.Message) {
    fmt.Println("-------------------------------------------")
    fmt.Println(message.Data)
  })

  //wildcards can be used to subscribe to multipule channels
  client.Subscribe("/foo/*", false, func(message wray.Message) {
    fmt.Println("-------------------------------------------")
    fmt.Println(message.Data)
  })

  //start listening on all subscribed channels and hold the process open
  client.Listen()
}

###Publishing to channels

package main

import "github.com/pythonandchips/wray"
import "fmt"

func main() {
  //register the types of transport you want available. Only long-polling is currently supported
  wray.RegisterTransports([]wray.Transport{ &gofaye.HttpTransport{} })

  //create a new client
  client := wray.NewFayeClient("http://localhost:5000/faye")

  params := map[string]interface{}{"hello": "from golang"}

  //send message to server
  client.Publish("/foo", params)
}

Simple examples are availabe in the examples folder.

##Future Work There is still a lot to do to bring Wray in line with Faye functionality. This is a less than exhaustive list of work to be completed:-

web socket support
eventsource support
logging
middleware additions
correctly handle disconnect and server down
promises for subscription and publishing
automated integrations test to ensure Wray continues to work with Faye
