Connector

The Connector object in the peer package is used on the device that is to send the data, i.e. if you are using data from a phone to control a laptop, the phone is the connector.

Getting Started​

To get started import the peer package and initialise a new Connector object, if you are hosting these on the same web app via a router place this under the /peer route if possible, if not make changes to the Host objects domain parameter

import { Connector } from "@espruino-tools/peer";

let p = new Connector();

Initialising for Data transfer​

To initialise the data connection we do the following

import { Connector } from "@espruino-tools/peer";

let p = new Connector();

p.connectData();

Sending Data​

To easily send data from the connector device we can do the following.

import { Connector } from "@espruino-tools/peer";

let p = new Connector();

p.connectData();

p.conn.send("my chosen data");

Initialising for Video transfer​

To easily send video data from the connector device we can do the following, connectVideo takes 1 parameter which is the direction of camera chosen, by default this is "front" for front facing camera, but can also be "back" as shown below for use of the phones main camera

import { Host } from "@espruino-tools/peer";

let p = new Host("optional param for other device domain");

p.connectVideo("back");
