# Javascript bindings for Tinode

This SDK implements [Tinode](https://github.com/tinode/chat) client-side protocol for the browser based applications. See it in action
at https://web.tinode.co/ and https://sandbox.tinode.co/ ([full source](https://github.com/tinode/webapp)).

This is **not** a standalone project. It can only be used in conjunction with the [Tinode server](https://github.com/tinode/chat).

Regularly released NPM packages are at https://www.npmjs.com/package/tinode-sdk

You may include the latest standalone minified SDK into your html file as
```html
<script crossorigin="anonymous"
  src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tinode-sdk/umd/tinode.prod.js">
</script>
```
or while developing as
```html
<script crossorigin="anonymous"
  src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tinode-sdk/umd/tinode.dev.js">
</script>
```

## Node JS compatibility

This SDK is intended to be used in a browser. To use `tinode-sdk` in Node JS environment (such as on a server), you have to polyfill network providers, for example with [ws](https://www.npmjs.com/package/ws) and [xmlhttprequest](https://www.npmjs.com/package/xmlhttprequest) or [xhr](https://www.npmjs.com/package/xhr), as well as `indexedDB` with something like [fake-indexeddb](https://www.npmjs.com/package/fake-indexeddb):

```js
  Tinode.setNetworkProviders(require('ws'), require('xmlhttprequest'));
  Tinode.setDatabaseProvider(require('fake-indexeddb'));
  this.tinode = new Tinode(...);
```

`URL.createObjectURL()` and related methods were added in Node v16.7.0. The SDK is unlikely to work correctly with earlier versions of Node.
