set :cometio, :timeout => 120, :post_interval => 2, :allow_crossdomain => false
set :websocketio, :port => 5001
set :rocketio, :websocket => true, :comet => true # enable WebSocket and Comet

run Sinatra::Application
io = Sinatra::RocketIO

io.on :connect do |client|
  puts "new client available - <#{client.session}> type:#{client.type} from:#{client.address}"
  io.push :temperature, 35  # to all clients
  io.push :light, {:value => 150}, {:to => client.session} # to specific client
end

Client Side

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.0.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="<%= rocketio_js %>"></script>
var io = new RocketIO().connect();

io.on("temperature", function(value){
  console.log("server temperature : " + value);
}); // => "server temperature : 35"
io.on("light", function(data){
  console.log("server light sensor : " + data.value);
}); // => "server light sensor : 150"

Client --(WebSocket/Ajax)--> Server

Client Side

io.on("connect", function(){
  io.push("chat", {name: "shokai", message: "hello"}); // client -> server
});

Server Side

io.on :chat do |data, client|
  puts "#{data['name']} : #{data['message']}  <#{client.session}> type:#{client.type} address:#{client.address}"
end
## => "shokai : hello  <12abcde345f6g7h8ijk> type:websocket"

Client Side

io.on("connect", function(){
  alert("connect!! "+io.session);
});

io.on :connect do |client|
  puts "new client <#{client.session}> type:#{client.type} address:#{client.address}"
  io.push :hello, "hello new client!!"
end

io.on :disconnect do |client|

io.removeListener :chat  # remove all "chat" listener

Client Side

var event_id = io.on("error", function(err){
  console.error("RocketIO error : "err);
});
io.removeListener(event_id);

or

io.removeListener("error");  // remove all "error" listener

var io = new RocketIO({channel: "ch1"}).connect();  // set channel "ch1"

io.on("connect", function(){
  io.push("hi", "haaaaaaaai!!");
});

io.on("announce", function(msg){
  alert(msg);
  // => alert "new client a1b2cde345fg in ch1"
});

Server Side

io = Sinatra::RocketIO

io.on :connect do |client|
  msg = "new client #{client.session} in #{client.channel}"
  io.push :announce, msg, :channel => client.channel  # to all clients in Channel "ch1"
end

io.on :hi do |msg, client|
  puts "client says #{msg} (channel:#{client.channel})"
