Implementation of RMI in Node.js

Run the example

• Make sure Node.js has been installed on your machine.

git clone https://github.com/geraked/js-rmi.git

• Go to directory where the file package.json exists:

cd js-rmi

• Execute the following command to run the example:

npm run example

Use the library

• Install:

npm i https://github.com/geraked/js-rmi.git

• Define an abstract class (interface) and share between the client and server:

IHuman.js

• Implement the interface on the server:

Human.js

• Create an object on the server and bind it:

import { ServerStub } from "rmi";
import { Human } from "./Human.js";

let stub = new ServerStub("localhost", 3000);
let human = new Human("Amir", 17, 67, 1.73);

stub.bind("/human", human);

• Lookup the remote object from the client and use it:

import { IHuman } from "../shared/IHuman.js";
import { ClientStub } from "rmi";

let stub = new ClientStub("localhost", 3000);
let human = stub.lookup("/human", IHuman);

console.log("toJSON:", await human.toJSON());
console.log("BMI:", await human.bmi());

// Manipulate
await (human.name = "Reza");
await (human.height = 1.8);
await (human.age = (await human.age) + 3);
await human.looseWeight(5);
