API

Server(secret, opts)

secret is an alphanumeric string that is used by the client to connect as root.

opts is an optional object with the default values:

{
    public: null,
    timeout: 30 * 1000 // ms,
    httpServer: null,
    port: 5000,
    seed: null
}

opts.public is the path to the public directory for serving static content.

opts.timeout is the maximum allowed time for a candidate to successfully join the network.

opts.httpServer is an existing http server.

opts.port is the port used by the http server if none has been provided.

opts.seed is a number to use as a seed for the pseudo-random generation of channel ids. If null, the crypto.randomBytes method is used instead.
