]Usage
The core type you'll use is JSONRPCSession. It requires you set up a DataChannel object that handles reading and writing raw data.
let channel = DataChannel(...)
let session = JSONRPCSession(channel: channel)
let params = "hello" // any Encodable
let response: Decodable = try await session.sendRequest(params, method: "my_method")
Task {
for await event in await session.eventSequence {
switch event {
case .request(let request, let handler, let data):
// inspect request, possibly re-decode with more specific type,
// and reply using the handler
case .notification(let notification, let data):
// inspect notification
case .error(let error):
print("Error: \(error)")
}
}
}DataChannel
The closures on the DataChannel allow different transport mechanisms to be used. The JSONRPC package provides a few basic variants:
- Predefined messages channel
- A channel that delivers a static set of messages - Usage: let channel = await DataChannel.predefinedMessagesChannel(with: messages)
- Stdio channel
- Using stdout + stdin as message transport. - Note: When using this transport, make sure no non-protocol messages are sent to stdout, eg using print - Usage: let channel = DataChannel.stdioPipe()
- Actor channel
- Using swift actors to pass messages. - Can eg be useful for testing, where both client and server are implemented in swift and running in the same process. - Usage: let (clientChannel, serverChannel) = DataChannel.withDataActor()
- WebSocket channel
- Uses URLSessionWebSocketTask as a message transport. - Usage: let channel = DataChannel.webSocket(url: socketURL, terminationHandler: { print("socket closed" })
Contributing and Collaboration
I would love to hear from you! Issues or pull requests work great. Both a [Matrix space][matrix] and [Discord][discord] are available for live help, but I have a strong bias towards answering in the form of documentation. You can also find me on mastodon.
I prefer collaboration, and would love to find ways to work together if you have a similar project.
I prefer indentation with tabs for improved accessibility. But, I'd rather you use the system you want and make a PR than hesitate because of whitespace.
