SwiftUI-compatible Framework for Building Browser App with WebAssembly

Tokamak

SwiftUI-compatible framework for building browser apps with WebAssembly 

At the moment Tokamak implements a very basic subset of SwiftUI. Its DOM renderer supports a few view types and modifiers (you can check the current list in the progress document), and a new HTML view for constructing arbitrary HTML. The long-term goal of Tokamak is to implement as much of SwiftUI API as possible and to provide a few more helpful additions that simplify HTML and CSS interactions.

If there's some SwiftUI API that's missing but you'd like to use it, please review the existing issues and PRs to get more details about the current status, or create a new issue to let us prioritize the development based on the demand. We also try to make the development of views and modifiers easier (with the help from the HTML view, see the example below), so pull requests are very welcome! Don't forget to check the "Contributing" section first.

If you'd like to participate in the growing SwiftWasm community, you're also very welcome to join our Discord server, or the #webassembly channel in the SwiftPM Slack.

Example code

Tokamak API attempts to resemble SwiftUI API as much as possible. The main difference is that you use import TokamakShim instead of import SwiftUI in your files. The former makes your views compatible with Apple platforms, as well as platforms supported by Tokamak (currently only WebAssembly/WASI with more coming in the future):

import TokamakShim

struct Counter: View {
  @State var count: Int
  let limit: Int

  var body: some View {
    if count < limit {
      VStack {
        Button("Increment") { count += 1 }
        Text("\(count)")
      }
      .onAppear { print("Counter.VStack onAppear") }
      .onDisappear { print("Counter.VStack onDisappear") }
    } else {
      VStack { Text("Limit exceeded") }
    }
  }
}

@main
struct CounterApp: App {
  var body: some Scene {
    WindowGroup("Counter Demo") {
      Counter(count: 5, limit: 15)
    }
  }
}

Arbitrary HTML

With the HTML view you can also render any HTML you want, including inline SVG:

struct SVGCircle: View {
  var body: some View {
    HTML("svg", ["width": "100", "height": "100"]) {
      HTML("circle", [
        "cx": "50", "cy": "50", "r": "40",
        "stroke": "green", "stroke-width": "4", "fill": "yellow",
      ])
    }
  }
}

HTML doesn't support event listeners, and is declared in the TokamakStaticHTML module, which TokamakDOM re-exports. The benefit of HTML is that you can use it for static rendering in libraries like TokamakVapor and TokamakPublish.

Another option is the DynamicHTML view provided by the TokamakDOM module, which has a listeners property with a corresponding initializer parameter. You can pass closures that can handle onclick, onmouseover and other DOM events for you in the listeners dictionary. Check out MDN docs for the full list.

An example of mouse events handling with DynamicHTML would look like this:

struct MouseEventsView: View {
  @State var position: CGPoint = .zero
  @State var isMouseButtonDown: Bool = false

  var body: some View {
    DynamicHTML(
      "div",
      ["style": "width: 200px; height: 200px; background-color: red;"],
      listeners: [
        "mousemove": { event in
          guard
            let x = event.offsetX.jsValue.number,
            let y = event.offsetY.jsValue.number
          else { return }

          position = CGPoint(x: x, y: y)
        },
        "mousedown": { _ in isMouseButtonDown = true },
        "mouseup": { _ in isMouseButtonDown = false },
      ]
    ) {
      Text("position is \(position), is mouse button down? \(isMouseButtonDown)")
    }
  }
}

Arbitrary styles and scripts

While JavaScriptKit is a great option for occasional interactions with JavaScript, sometimes you need to inject arbitrary scripts or styles, which can be done through direct DOM access:

import JavaScriptKit

let document = JSObject.global.document
let script = document.createElement("script")
script.setAttribute("src", "https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/moment.js/2.27.0/moment.min.js")
document.head.appendChild(script)

_ = document.head.insertAdjacentHTML("beforeend", #"""
<link
  rel="stylesheet"
  href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/semantic-ui/2.4.1/semantic.min.css">
"""#)

This way both Semantic UI styles and moment.js localized date formatting (or any arbitrary style/script/font added that way) are available in your app.

Fiber renderers

A new reconciler modeled after React's Fiber reconciler is optionally available. It can provide faster updates and allow for larger View hierarchies. It also includes layout steps that can match SwiftUI layouts closer than CSS approximations.

You can specify which reconciler to use in your App's configuration:

struct CounterApp: App {
  static let _configuration: _AppConfiguration = .init(
    // Specify `useDynamicLayout` to enable the layout steps in place of CSS approximations.
    reconciler: .fiber(useDynamicLayout: true)
  )

  var body: some Scene {
    WindowGroup("Counter Demo") {
      Counter(count: 5, limit: 15)
    }
  }
}

Note: Not all Views and ViewModifiers are supported by Fiber renderers yet.

Requirements

For app developers

• macOS 11 and Xcode 13.2 or later when using VS Code. macOS 12 and Xcode 13.3 or later are recommended if you'd like to use Xcode for auto-completion, or when developing multi-platform apps that target WebAssembly and macOS at the same time.
• Swift 5.6 or later and Ubuntu 18.04/20.04 if you'd like to use Linux. Other Linux distributions are currently not supported.
• carton 0.15.x (carton is our build tool, see the "Getting started" section for installation steps)

For users of apps depending on Tokamak

Any recent browser that supports WebAssembly and required JavaScript features should work, which currently includes:

• Edge 84+
• Firefox 79+
• Chrome 84+
• Desktop Safari 14.1+
• Mobile Safari 14.8+

If you need to support older browser versions, you'll have to build with JAVASCRIPTKIT_WITHOUT_WEAKREFS flag, passing -Xswiftc -DJAVASCRIPTKIT_WITHOUT_WEAKREFS flags when compiling. This should lower browser requirements to these versions:

• Edge 16+
• Firefox 61+
• Chrome 66+
• (Mobile) Safari 12+

Not all of these versions are tested on regular basis though, compatibility reports are very welcome!

Getting started

Tokamak relies on carton as a primary build tool. As a part of these steps you'll install carton via Homebrew on macOS (unfortunately you'll have to build it manually on Linux). Assuming you already have Homebrew installed, you can create a new Tokamak app by following these steps:

Install carton:

brew install swiftwasm/tap/carton

If you had carton installed before this, make sure you have version 0.15.0 or greater:

carton --version

Create a directory for your project and make it current:

mkdir TokamakApp && cd TokamakApp

Initialize the project from a template with carton:

carton init --template tokamak

Build the project and start the development server, carton dev can be kept running during development:

carton dev

Open http://127.0.0.1:8080/ in your browser to see the app running. You can edit the app source code in your favorite editor and save it, carton will immediately rebuild the app and reload all browser tabs that have the app open.

You can also clone this repository and run carton dev --product TokamakDemo in its root directory. This will build the demo app that shows almost all of the currently implemented APIs.

If you have any questions, pleaes check out the FAQ document, and/or join the #tokamak channel on the SwiftWasm Discord server.

Security

By default, the DOM renderer will escape HTML control characters in Text views. If you wish to override this functionality, you can use the _domTextSanitizer modifier:

Text("<font color='red'>Unsanitized Text</font>")
  ._domTextSanitizer(Sanitizers.HTML.insecure)

You can also use custom sanitizers; the argument to _domTextSanitizer is simply a String -> String closure. If _domTextSanitizer is applied to a non-Text view, it will apply to all Text in subviews, unless overridden.

If you use user-generated or otherwise unsafe strings elsewhere, make sure to properly sanitize them yourself.

Troubleshooting

unable to find utility "xctest" error when building

This error can only happen on macOS, so make sure you have Xcode installed as listed in the requirements. If you do have Xcode installed but still get the error, please refer to this StackOverflow answer.

Syntax highlighting and autocomplete don't work in Xcode

Open Package.swift of your project that depends on Tokamak with Xcode and build it for macOS. As Xcode currently doesn't support cross-compilation for non-Apple platforms, your project can't be indexed if it doesn't build for macOS, even if it isn't fully function on macOS when running. If you need to exclude some WebAssembly-specific code in your own app that doesn't compile on macOS, you can rely on #if os(WASI) compiler directives.

All relevant modules of Tokamak (including TokamakDOM) should compile on macOS. You may see issues with TokamakShim on macOS Catalina, where relevant SwiftUI APIs aren't supported, but replacing import TokamakShim with import TokamakDOM should resolve the issue until you're able to update to macOS Big Sur.

If you stumble upon code in Tokamak that doesn't build on macOS and prevents syntax highlighting or autocomplete from working in Xcode, please report it as a bug.

Syntax highlighting and autocomplete don't work in VSCode

Make sure you have the SourceKit LSP extension installed. If you don't trust this unofficial release, please follow the manual building and installation guide. Apple currently doesn't provide an official build of the extension on the VSCode Marketplace unfortunately.

Contributing

All contributions, no matter how small, are very welcome. You don't have to be a web developer or a SwiftUI expert to meaningfully contribute. In fact, by checking out how some of the simplest views are implemented in Tokamak you may learn more how SwiftUI may work under the hood.

Updating our documentation and taking on the starter bugs is also appreciated. Don't forget to join our Discord server to get in touch with the maintainers and other users. See CONTRIBUTING.md for more details.

How long does it take to develop/build an app?

With more of us using smartphones, the popularity of mobile applications has exploded. In the digital era, the number of people looking for products and services online is growing rapidly. Smartphone owners look for mobile applications that give them quick access to companies’ products and services. As a result, mobile apps provide customers with a lot of benefits in just one device.

Likewise, companies use mobile apps to increase customer loyalty and improve their services. Mobile Developers are in high demand as companies use apps not only to create brand awareness but also to gather information. For that reason, mobile apps are used as tools to collect valuable data from customers to help companies improve their offer.

There are many types of mobile applications, each with its own advantages. For example, native apps perform better, while web apps don’t need to be customized for the platform or operating system (OS). Likewise, hybrid apps provide users with comfortable user experience. However, you may be wondering how long it takes to develop an app.

To give you an idea of how long the app development process takes, here’s a short guide.

App Idea & Research

_Average time spent: two to five weeks _

This is the initial stage and a crucial step in setting the project in the right direction. In this stage, you brainstorm ideas and select the best one. Apart from that, you’ll need to do some research to see if your idea is viable. Remember that coming up with an idea is easy; the hard part is to make it a reality.

All your ideas may seem viable, but you still have to run some tests to keep it as real as possible. For that reason, when Web Developers are building a web app, they analyze the available ideas to see which one is the best match for the targeted audience.

Targeting the right audience is crucial when you are developing an app. It saves time when shaping the app in the right direction as you have a clear set of objectives. Likewise, analyzing how the app affects the market is essential. During the research process, App Developers must gather information about potential competitors and threats. This helps the app owners develop strategies to tackle difficulties that come up after the launch.

The research process can take several weeks, but it determines how successful your app can be. For that reason, you must take your time to know all the weaknesses and strengths of the competitors, possible app strategies, and targeted audience.

The outcomes of this stage are app prototypes and the minimum feasible product.

Best Electric Bikes and Scooters for Rental Business or Campus Facility

The electric scooter revolution has caught on super-fast taking many cities across the globe by storm. eScooters, a renovated version of old-school scooters now turned into electric vehicles are an environmentally friendly solution to current on-demand commute problems. They work on engines, like cars, enabling short traveling distances without hassle. The result is that these groundbreaking electric machines can now provide faster transport for less — cheaper than Uber and faster than Metro.

Since they are durable, fast, easy to operate and maintain, and are more convenient to park compared to four-wheelers, the eScooters trend has and continues to spike interest as a promising growth area. Several companies and universities are increasingly setting up shop to provide eScooter services realizing a would-be profitable business model and a ready customer base that is university students or residents in need of faster and cheap travel going about their business in school, town, and other surrounding areas.

Electric Scooters Trends and Statistics

In many countries including the U.S., Canada, Mexico, U.K., Germany, France, China, Japan, India, Brazil and Mexico and more, a growing number of eScooter users both locals and tourists can now be seen effortlessly passing lines of drivers stuck in the endless and unmoving traffic.

A recent report by McKinsey revealed that the E-Scooter industry will be worth― $200 billion to $300 billion in the United States, $100 billion to $150 billion in Europe, and $30 billion to $50 billion in China in 2030. The e-Scooter revenue model will also spike and is projected to rise by more than 20% amounting to approximately $5 billion.

And, with a necessity to move people away from high carbon prints, traffic and congestion issues brought about by car-centric transport systems in cities, more and more city planners are developing more bike/scooter lanes and adopting zero-emission plans. This is the force behind the booming electric scooter market and the numbers will only go higher and higher.

Companies that have taken advantage of the growing eScooter trend develop an appthat allows them to provide efficient eScooter services. Such an app enables them to be able to locate bike pick-up and drop points through fully integrated google maps.

List of Best Electric Bikes for Rental Business or Campus Facility 2020:

It’s clear that e scooters will increasingly become more common and the e-scooter business model will continue to grab the attention of manufacturers, investors, entrepreneurs. All this should go ahead with a quest to know what are some of the best electric bikes in the market especially for anyone who would want to get started in the electric bikes/scooters rental business.

We have done a comprehensive list of the best electric bikes! Each bike has been reviewed in depth and includes a full list of specs and a photo.

How to start an electric scooter facility/fleet in a university campus/IT park

Are you leading an organization that has a large campus, e.g., a large university? You are probably thinking of introducing an electric scooter/bicycle fleet on the campus, and why wouldn’t you?

Introducing micro-mobility in your campus with the help of such a fleet would help the people on the campus significantly. People would save money since they don’t need to use a car for a short distance. Your campus will see a drastic reduction in congestion, moreover, its carbon footprint will reduce.

Micro-mobility is relatively new though and you would need help. You would need to select an appropriate fleet of vehicles. The people on your campus would need to find electric scooters or electric bikes for commuting, and you need to provide a solution for this.

To be more specific, you need a short-term electric bike rental app. With such an app, you will be able to easily offer micro-mobility to the people on the campus. We at Devathon have built Autorent exactly for this.

What does Autorent do and how can it help you? How does it enable you to introduce micro-mobility on your campus? We explain these in this article, however, we will touch upon a few basics first.

Micro-mobility: What it is

You are probably thinking about micro-mobility relatively recently, aren’t you? A few relevant insights about it could help you to better appreciate its importance.

Micro-mobility is a new trend in transportation, and it uses vehicles that are considerably smaller than cars. Electric scooters (e-scooters) and electric bikes (e-bikes) are the most popular forms of micro-mobility, however, there are also e-unicycles and e-skateboards.

You might have already seen e-scooters, which are kick scooters that come with a motor. Thanks to its motor, an e-scooter can achieve a speed of up to 20 km/h. On the other hand, e-bikes are popular in China and Japan, and they come with a motor, and you can reach a speed of 40 km/h.

You obviously can’t use these vehicles for very long commutes, however, what if you need to travel a short distance? Even if you have a reasonable public transport facility in the city, it might not cover the route you need to take. Take the example of a large university campus. Such a campus is often at a considerable distance from the central business district of the city where it’s located. While public transport facilities may serve the central business district, they wouldn’t serve this large campus. Currently, many people drive their cars even for short distances.

As you know, that brings its own set of challenges. Vehicular traffic adds significantly to pollution, moreover, finding a parking spot can be hard in crowded urban districts.

Well, you can reduce your carbon footprint if you use an electric car. However, electric cars are still new, and many countries are still building the necessary infrastructure for them. Your large campus might not have the necessary infrastructure for them either. Presently, electric cars don’t represent a viable option in most geographies.

As a result, you need to buy and maintain a car even if your commute is short. In addition to dealing with parking problems, you need to spend significantly on your car.

All of these factors have combined to make people sit up and think seriously about cars. Many people are now seriously considering whether a car is really the best option even if they have to commute only a short distance.

This is where micro-mobility enters the picture. When you commute a short distance regularly, e-scooters or e-bikes are viable options. You limit your carbon footprints and you cut costs!

Businesses have seen this shift in thinking, and e-scooter companies like Lime and Bird have entered this field in a big way. They let you rent e-scooters by the minute. On the other hand, start-ups like Jump and Lyft have entered the e-bike market.

Think of your campus now! The people there might need to travel short distances within the campus, and e-scooters can really help them.

How micro-mobility can benefit you

What advantages can you get from micro-mobility? Let’s take a deeper look into this question.

Micro-mobility can offer several advantages to the people on your campus, e.g.:

• Affordability: Shared e-scooters are cheaper than other mass transportation options. Remember that the people on your campus will use them on a shared basis, and they will pay for their short commutes only. Well, depending on your operating model, you might even let them use shared e-scooters or e-bikes for free!
• Convenience: Users don’t need to worry about finding parking spots for shared e-scooters since these are small. They can easily travel from point A to point B on your campus with the help of these e-scooters.
• Environmentally sustainable: Shared e-scooters reduce the carbon footprint, moreover, they decongest the roads. Statistics from the pilot programs in cities like Portland and Denver showimpressive gains around this key aspect.
• Safety: This one’s obvious, isn’t it? When people on your campus use small e-scooters or e-bikes instead of cars, the problem of overspeeding will disappear. you will see fewer accidents.

ThruwayBundle: Bundle for Building Real-time Apps in Symfony

ThruwayBundle

This a Symfony Bundle for Thruway, which is a php implementation of WAMP (Web Application Messaging Protocol).

Note: This project is still undergoing a lot of changes, so the API will change.

Quick Start with Composer

Install the Thruway Bundle

  $ composer require "voryx/thruway-bundle"

Update AppKernel.php (when using Symfony < 4)

$bundles = array(
    // ...
    new Voryx\ThruwayBundle\VoryxThruwayBundle(),
    // ...
);

Configuration

#app/config/config.yml

voryx_thruway:
    realm: 'realm1'
    url: 'ws://127.0.0.1:8081' #The url that the clients will use to connect to the router
    router:
        ip: '127.0.0.1'  # the ip that the router should start on
        port: '8080'  # public facing port.  If authentication is enabled, this port will be protected
        trusted_port: '8081' # Bypasses all authentication.  Use this for trusted clients.
#        authentication: false # true will load the AuthenticationManager
    locations:
        bundles: ["AppBundle"]
#        files:
#            - "Acme\\DemoBundle\\Controller\\DemoController"
#
# For symfony 4, this bundle will automatically scan for annotated worker files in the src/Controller folder
      

With Symfony 4 use a filename like: config/packages/voryx.yaml

If you are using the in-memory user provider, you'll need to add a thruway to the security firewall and set the in_memory_user_provider.

#app/config/security.yml

security: 
   firewalls:
        thruway:
            security: false	     

You can also tag services with thruway.resource and any annotation will get picked up

<service id="some.service" class="Acme\Bundle\SomeService">
    <tag name="thruway.resource"/>
</service>

Note: tagging a service as thruway.resource will make it public.

services:
    App\Worker\:
        resource: '../src/Worker'
        tags: ['thruway.resource']

Authentication with FOSUserBundle via WampCRA

Change the Password Encoder (tricky on existing sites) to master wamp challenge

#app/config/security.yml

security:
    ...
    encoders:
        FOS\UserBundle\Model\UserInterface:
            algorithm:            pbkdf2
            hash_algorithm:       sha256
            encode_as_base64:     true
            iterations:           1000
            key_length:           32

set voryx_thruway.user_provider to "fos_user.user_provider"

#app/config/config.yml

voryx_thruway:
    user_provider: 'fos_user.user_provider.username' #fos_user.user_provider.username_email login with email

The WAMP-CRA service is already configured, we just need to add a tag to it to have the bundle install it:

    wamp_cra_auth:
        class: Thruway\Authentication\WampCraAuthProvider
        parent: voryx.thruway.wamp.cra.auth.client
        tags:
            - { name: thruway.internal_client }

Custom Authorization Manager

You can set your own Authorization Manager in order to check if a user (identified by its authid) is allowed to publish | subscribe | call | register

Create your Authorization Manager service, extending RouterModuleClient and implementing RealmModuleInterface (see the Thruway doc for details)

// src/ACME/AppBundle/Security/MyAuthorizationManager.php


use Thruway\Event\MessageEvent;
use Thruway\Event\NewRealmEvent;
use Thruway\Module\RealmModuleInterface;
use Thruway\Module\RouterModuleClient;

class MyAuthorizationManager extends RouterModuleClient implements RealmModuleInterface
{
    /**
     * Listen for Router events.
     * Required to add the authorization module to the realm
     *
     * @return array
     */
    public static function getSubscribedEvents()
    {
        return [
            'new_realm' => ['handleNewRealm', 10]
        ];
    }

    /**
     * @param NewRealmEvent $newRealmEvent
     */
    public function handleNewRealm(NewRealmEvent $newRealmEvent)
    {
        $realm = $newRealmEvent->realm;

        if ($realm->getRealmName() === $this->getRealm()) {
            $realm->addModule($this);
        }
    }

    /**
     * @return array
     */
    public function getSubscribedRealmEvents()
    {
        return [
            'PublishMessageEvent'   => ['authorize', 100],
            'SubscribeMessageEvent' => ['authorize', 100],
            'RegisterMessageEvent'  => ['authorize', 100],
            'CallMessageEvent'      => ['authorize', 100],
        ];
    }

    /**
     * @param MessageEvent $msg
     * @return bool
     */
    public function authorize(MessageEvent $msg)
    {
        if ($msg->session->getAuthenticationDetails()->getAuthId() === 'username') {
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
}

Register your authorization manager service

     my_authorization_manager:
        class: ACME\AppBundle\Security\MyAuthorizationManager

Insert your service name in the voryx_thruway config

#app/config/config.yml

voryx_thruway:
    ...
        authorization: my_authorization_manager # insert the name of your custom authorizationManager
   ...

Restart the Thruway server; it will now check authorization upon publish | subscribe | call | register. Remember to catch error when you try to subscribe to a topic (or any other action) as it may now be denied and this will be returned as an error.

Usage

Register RPC

    use Voryx\ThruwayBundle\Annotation\Register;
    
    /**
     *
     * @Register("com.example.add")
     *
     */
    public function addAction($num1, $num2)
    {
        return $num1 + $num2;
    }

Call RPC

    public function call($value)
    {
        $client = $this->container->get('thruway.client');
        $client->call("com.myapp.add", [2, 3])->then(
            function ($res) {
                echo $res[0];
            }
        );
    }

Subscribe

     use Voryx\ThruwayBundle\Annotation\Subscribe;

    /**
     *
     * @Subscribe("com.example.subscribe")
     *
     */
    public function subscribe($value)
    {
        echo $value;
    }

Publish

    public function publish($value)
    {
        $client = $this->container->get('thruway.client');
        $client->publish("com.myapp.hello_pubsub", [$value]);
    }

It uses Symfony Serializer, so it can serialize and deserialize Entities

         use Voryx\ThruwayBundle\Annotation\Register;

    /**
     *
     * @Register("com.example.addrpc", serializerEnableMaxDepthChecks=true)
     *
     */
    public function addAction(Post $post)
    {
        //Do something to $post

        return $post;
    }

Start the Thruway Process

You can start the default Thruway workers (router and client workers), without any additional configuration.

$ nohup php app/console thruway:process start &

By default, the router starts on ws://127.0.0.1:8080

Workers

The Thruway bundle will start up a separate process for the router and each defined worker. If you haven't defined any workers, all of the annotated calls and subscriptions will be started within the default worker.

There are two main ways to break your application apart into multiple workers.

Use the worker property on the Register and Subscribe annotations. The following RPC will be added to the posts worker.

  use Voryx\ThruwayBundle\Annotation\Register;

  /**
  * @Register("com.example.addrpc", serializerEnableMaxDepthChecks=true, worker="posts")
  */
  public function addAction(Post $post)

Use the @Worker annotation on the class. The following annotation will create a worker called chat that can have a max of 5 instances.

  use Voryx\ThruwayBundle\Annotation\Worker;

  /**
  * @Worker("chat", maxProcesses="5")
  */
  class ChatController

If a worker is shut down with anything other than SIGTERM, it will automatically be restarted.

More Commands

To see a list of running processes (workers)

$ php app/console thruway:process status

Stop a process, i.e. default

$ php app/console thruway:process stop default

Start a process, i.e. default

$ php app/console thruway:process start default

Javascript Client

For the client, you can use AutobahnJS or any other WAMPv2 compatible client.

Here are some examples

Symfony 4 Quick Start

composer create-project symfony/skeleton my_project

cd my_project

composer require symfony/expression-language

composer require symfony/annotations-pack

composer require voryx/thruway-bundle:dev-master

Create config/packages/my_project.yml with the following config:

voryx_thruway:
    realm: 'realm1'
    url: 'ws://127.0.0.1:8081' #The url that the clients will use to connect to the router
    router:
        ip: '127.0.0.1'  # the ip that the router should start on
        port: '8080'  # public facing port.  If authentication is enabled, this port will be protected
        trusted_port: '8081' # Bypasses all authentication.  Use this for trusted clients.

Create the controller src/Controller/TestController.php

<?php
namespace App\Controller;

use Voryx\ThruwayBundle\Annotation\Register;

class TestController
{
    /**
     * @Register("com.example.add")
     */
    public function addAction($num1, $num2)
    {
        return $num1 + $num2;
    }
}

Test to see if the RPC has been configured correctly bin/console thruway:debug

 URI             Type Worker  File                                                  Method    
 com.example.add RPC  default /my_project/src/Controller/TestController.php         addAction 

For more debug info for the RPC we created: bin/console thruway:debug com.example.add

Start everything: bin/console thruway:process start

The RPC com.example.add is now available to any WAMP client connected to ws://127.0.0.1:8081 on realm1.
