[perf] Use pattern matching at the namespace level (#217)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This follows #46. Each node will now listen to only three channels:

- `socket.io#<namespace>#*`: used when broadcasting
- `socket.io-request#<namespace>#`: used for requesting information (ex: get every room in the cluster)
- `socket.io-response#<namespace>#`: used for responding to requests

We keep the benefits of #46 since:

- messages from other namespaces are ignored
- when emitting to a single room, the message is sent to
  `socket.io#<namespace>#<my-room>`, so listeners can check whether they
  have the room before unpacking the message (which is CPU consuming).

But there is no need to subscribe / unsubscribe every time a socket
joins or leaves a room (which is also CPU consuming when there are
thousands of subscriptions).

- `key`: the name of the key to pub/sub events on as prefix (`socket.io`)
- `host`: host to connect to redis on (`localhost`)
- `port`: port to connect to redis on (`6379`)
- `subEvent`: optional, the redis client event name to subscribe to (`messageBuffer`)
- `pubClient`: optional, the redis client to publish events on
- `subClient`: optional, the redis client to subscribe to events on
- `requestsTimeout`: optional, after this timeout the adapter will stop waiting from responses to request (`1000ms`)
- `withChannelMultiplexing`: optional, whether channel multiplexing is enabled (a new subscription will be trigggered for each room) (`true`)

If you decide to supply `pubClient` and `subClient`, make sure you use
[node_redis](https://github.com/mranney/node_redis) as a client or one
