Installation and usage

Be sure you have a ruby version >= 1.9.2

$ gem install garufa

$ garufa --help

Start garufa server:

$ garufa -sv --app_id app-id --app_key app-key --secret app-secret

This will start Garufa, logging to stdout in verbose mode. If you want Garufa to run in background (daemonized) add -d flag.

Now say you want to send events to your browser. Create an .html file which requires the pusher.js library and binds to some events, then point your browser to that file (for testing purpose, you can simply open it with your browser).

Maybe you would like to open your JavaScript console to see JavaScript debug messages.

<html>
  <script src="http://js.pusher.com/2.1/pusher.min.js"></script>
  <script>
    Pusher.log = function(message) { console.log(message) };
    Pusher.host = 'localhost';
    Pusher.ws_port = 8080;

    var appKey = 'app-key';
    var pusher = new Pusher(appKey);
    var channel = pusher.subscribe('my-channel');

    channel.bind('my-event', function(data) { alert(data.message) });
  </script>
</html>

Now trigger my-event from Ruby code. Be sure you have already installed the pusher gem (gem install pusher). Open a Ruby console and paste this:

require 'pusher'

Pusher.host = 'localhost'
Pusher.port = 8080

Pusher.app_id = 'app-id'
Pusher.key = 'app-key'
Pusher.secret = 'app-secret'

Pusher.trigger('my-channel', 'my-event', { message: 'hello world' })

Check your browser to see the event have just arrived.
