Angular Sails

This small module allows you to use Sails.JS's awesome socket.io api with AngularJS.

Just add a dependency to your module and controllers and get it going!

Install it:

bower install angular-sails

Usage

A small example:

var app = angular.module("MyApp", ['ngSails']);

app.controller("FooController", function ($scope, $sails) {
  $scope.bars = [];
  
  (function () {
    $sails.get("/bars", function (data) {
      $scope.bars = data;
    });
    
    $sails.on("message", function (message) {
      if (message.verb === "create") {
        $scope.bars.push(message.data);
      }
    });
  }());
});

API Refenrence

Sails.JS REST

  $sails.reconnect('http://foobar.com:1338');

disconnect()

A wrapper for the socket.io disconnect function.

  $sails.disconnect();

emit(event, data)

A wrapper for socket.io's emit function.

  $sails.emit('something very cool', { foo: 'bar' });
