Jail create multiple Cells, one cell per status client chat. Each cell runs own
|
||||
Otto virtual machine and lives forever, but that may change in the future.

##Cells
|
||||
Each Cell object embeds *VM from 'jail/vm' for concurrency safe wrapper around
|
||||
*otto.VM functions. This is important when dealing with setTimeout and Fetch API
|
||||
functions (see below).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Get and Set
|
||||
|
||||
##Get and Set
|
||||
(*VM).Get/Set functions provide transparent and concurrently safe wrappers for
|
||||
Otto VM Get and Set functions respectively. See Otto documentation for usage
|
||||
examples: https://godoc.org/github.com/robertkrimen/otto
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Call and Run
|
||||
Otto VM Get and Set functions respectively. See Otto documentation for usage examples:
|
||||
https://godoc.org/github.com/robertkrimen/otto
|
||||
|
||||
##Call and Run
|
||||
(*VM).Call/Run functions allows executing arbitrary JS in the cell. They're also
|
||||
wrappers arount Otto VM functions of the same name. Run accepts raw JS strings
|
||||
for execution, Call takes a JS function name (defined in VM) and parameters.

|
||||
|
||||
##Timeouts and intervals support
|
||||
Default Otto VM interpreter doesn't support setTimeout()/setInterval() JS functions,
|
||||
because they're not part of ECMA-262 spec, but properties of the window object in browser.
|
||||
We add support for them using own implementation of Event Loop, heavily based on http://github.com/status-im/ottoext package. See loop/fetch/promise packages under `jail/internal/`.

|

|
||||
|
||||
Each cell starts a new loop in a separate goroutine, registers functions for
|
||||
setTimeout/setInterval calls and associate them with this loop. All JS code
|
||||
executed as callback to setTimeout/setInterval will be handled by this loop.

|
||||
will be handled by this loop.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, following code:
|
||||
|
||||
cell.Run(`setTimeout(function(){ value = "42" }, 2000);`)
|
||||
```
|
||||
cell.Run(`setTimeout(function(){ value = "42" }, 2000);`)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
will execute setTimeout and return immidiately, but callback function will be
|
||||
executed after 2 seconds in the loop that was started upon current cell.

|
||||
|
||||
In order to capture response one may use following approach:
|
||||
|
||||
err = cell.Set("__captureResponse", func(val string) otto.Value {
|
||||
fmt.Println("Captured response from callback:", val)
|
||||
return otto.UndefinedValue()
|
||||
})
|
||||
cell.Run(`setTimeout(function(){ __captureResponse("OK") }, 2000);`)
|
||||
```
|
||||
err = cell.Set("__captureResponse", func(val string) otto.Value {
|
||||
fmt.Println("Captured response from callback:", val)
|
||||
return otto.UndefinedValue()
|
||||
})
|
||||
cell.Run(`setTimeout(function(){ __captureResponse("OK") }, 2000);`)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
##Fetch support
|
||||
Fetch API is implemented in a similar way using the same loop. When Cell is created, corresponding handlers are registered within VM and associated event loop.
|
||||
|
||||
Due to asynchronous nature of Fetch API, the following code will return immediately:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
cell.Run(`fetch('http://example.com/').then(function(data) { ... })`)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
and callback function in a promise will be executed in a event loop in the background. Thus,
|
||||
it's user responsibility to register a corresponding callback function before:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
cell.Set("__captureSuccess", func(res otto.Value) { ... })
|
||||
|
||||
cell.Run(`fetch('http://example.com').then(function(r) {
|
||||
return r.text()
|
||||
}).then(function(data) {
|
||||
// user code
|
||||
__captureSuccess(data)
|
||||
}))
|
||||
```

||||

|
||||
// user code
|

|
||||
}))
