const Component = connectSocket(
  // 1. urlMapper => (ownerProps: Object) => string
  props =>
    'ws://localhost:8000/deviceId/12345/deviceKey/' + props.key,

  // 2. onMessage => (ownerProps: Object) => datapoint => void
  props =>
    datapoint => props.setDatapoint(props.deviceId, datapoint),

  // 3. propsMapper => state => props
  ({ readyState, send, createWebSocket }) => ({
    send,
    isWebSocketClose: readyState.sender === 3,
    reconnect: createWebSocket,
  }),
)(BaseComponent),

API

urlMapper => (ownerProps: Object) => string

Set the URL to be connected. There are two connections:

• Sender : The Send-Only connection via ${URL}.
• Viewer : The Read-Only connection via ${URL}/viewer.

onMessage => (ownerProps: Object) => datapoint => void

The callback function of Viewer. It will be invoked when receiving messages (datapoint) from the server.

propsMapper => state => props

A function that maps internal state to a new collection of props that are passed to the base component. There are three states:

• send(payload: String) : Immediately sends the specified payload (datapoint) to server.
• readyState: Ready state constants.
• createWebSocket: A convenience function for reconnecting.
