/* ****************************************************************
Create a terminal receiver or server.
Currently the server only accepts one connection at a time and
does not support SSL. If you wish to use to connect to a
terminal over the internet, PLEASE do not use this class as-is.
--SERVER-------------------------------------------------------
Server requirements:
- node-pty
- ws
Server usage:
terminalServer = new Terminal({
role: "server",
port: 3000, // 3000 if empty
shell: "bash" // Command to run, "bash" by default
})
Server events:
terminalServer.onopened // Connected to a receiver
.ondisconnected // Disconnected from receiver
.onclosed // Terminal was exited
// Args: code, signal
.onresized // Terminal was resized
// Args: cols, rows
Server methods:
None.
--CLIENT--------------------------------------------------------
Client requirements:
- xterm.js
- browser with WebSocket support
Client usage:
terminalClient = new Terminal({
role: "client",
parentId: "someid", // ID of the terminal container element
port: 3000, // 3000 if empty
host: "127.0.0.1" // Localhost by default
})
Client events:
None.
Client methods:
terminalClient.fit() // Resizes the terminal to match the container's size
.resize(cols, rows) // Manual resize
