Seaport client and server combined with automatic failover

npm install seapeer

This module allows you to run seaport without explicitly starting a seaport server. Instead one of the clients accessing seaport will become the server. If that client dies another one will take his place

var seapeer = require('seapeer')

// 9090 is the port that will be used (should be the same in all clients)
var ports = seapeer(9090)

ports.on('master', function() {
  console.log('i am hosting the server now')
})

// register an app
ports.register('web', {port:10000})

ports.get('web', function(ps) {
  console.log('web:', ps)
})

Try running the above example in a couple of processes
