Peer

Interface

An object implements the Peer interface if it:

• Inherits from y-emitter Target
• Has been initialized by the y-emitter Target's constructor
• Fires a 'msg' event when a message is received
• Has the 'ready' state set when it can receive and send messages
• Has the 'closed' state set when it will no longer receive and send messages
• Has a .give('msg',msg) method for sending messages, where the acceptable type and structure of msg depends on the object itself, typically JSONable data, and what it is to be sent is a copy of msg at the time this method was called
• Has a .set('closed') method for terminating the connection
