socket.io-nats-emitter

socket.io-nats-emitter allows you to communicate with socket.io servers through NATS easily from non-socket.io processes, based on the socket.io-emitter.

The socket.io servers instances should use this adapter socket.io-nats or one that implements the protocol.

How to use

var io = require('socket.io-nats-emitter')();
setInterval(function(){
  io.emit('time', new Date);
}, 5000);
