npm package: @nesto-software/capacitor-websocket
Description: Basic websocket for capacitor
Author: Ryan
Latest version: 1.0.5

# websocket

Basic, cross-platform native websocket implementation for Capacitor/Ionic.

- iOS/Swift implmentation uses [StarScream](/https://github.com/daltoniam/Starscream)
- Android/Java uses [NV/NeoVisionaries Websocket Client](/https://github.com/TakahikoKawasaki/nv-websocket-client)
- Web implementation uses web native websockets

## Install

```bash
npm install @miaz/capacitor-websocket
npx cap sync
```

## Usage 

Rather than overriding Capacitor's addListener and notifyListener under the hood, create specific event names to the source they're coming from, separated with a colon and then the event name itself. 

```typescript
type EventSourceNames = "chat" | "live";

addListener<EventSourceNames>("chat:message", ...);
addListener<EventSourceNames>("live:message", ...);
```
