### Features

1. Safely enables [cross-origin](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Access_control_CORS) communication among different browser tabs. Uses `PostMessage` API for communication.
2. Easy to hook custom callback at various levels. Eg: executing a custom method in Child's tab on receiving a message from Parent tab.
3. Option to provide `data-tab-opener="name"` attribute on the target link/button(which opens up a new tab), so that it remains to disable until `Child` tab initiates a handshake and is received by the `Parent` tab
4. Fully fledged API to get information regarding the tabs(Parent and Child tabs) and other communication-related methods.
5. Exports in a UMD format i.e. library works everywhere.
6. Only `~4 KB` gzipped.

### Installation

1. Via [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/)

```
$ npm install across-tabs
```

2. Via [bower](https://bower.io/)

```
$ bower install across-tabs
```

3. Via [cdnjs](https://cdnjs.com), using `<script>` tag

```
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/across-tabs/1.0.0/across-tabs.min.js"></script>
```

**Note**: Use the desired version of the library in place of `1.0.0`. Checkout [cdnjs across-tabs](https://cdnjs.com/libraries/across-tabs).

### Flow Diagram

- Opener/Parent tab(`P`) opens up a new Child tab(`C`).
- `C` initiates a handshake with the `P` tab by sending a `postMessage`.
- `P` acknowledges the request and sends `C` it's identity i.e. `UUID` along with `P` information.
- This sets up a communication channel between Parent and Child tab.
- Now, `P` and `C` can share custom messages with each other.
- Whenever `C` gets closed/refreshed, `P` is notified.
- Whenever `P` is closed/refreshed, all children of `P` tab gets notified.

<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wingify/across-tabs/master/parent-tab-communication.jpg" />

**Explanation of diagram**

- Parent(`P`) opens Child tab(`C1`) at `t=1`.
- `c1a` - When `C1` initiates a handshake with the Parent.
- `P1` - When `P` receives `C1` message.
- `P2` - `P` acknowledges the request and sends the `C1` its identity.
- `c1b` - When `C1` receives an acknowledgement message along with identity from `P`.

---

Total Tabs Associated: **1** | Opened Tabs: **1** | Closed Tabs: **0**

---

- Parent(`P`) opens CHild tab(`C2`) at `t=10`.
- `c2a` - When `C2` initiates a handshake with the Parent.
- `P3` - When `P` receives `C2` message.
- `P4` - `P` acknowledges the request and sends the `C2` its identity.
- `c2b` - When `C2` receives acknowledgemnet message along with identity from `P`.

---

Total Tabs Associated: **2** | Opened Tabs: **2** | Closed Tabs: **0**

---

- `c1c` - Tab `C1` closes.
- `P5` - `P` is notified about the `C1`. Parent updates the list.

---

Total Tabs Associated: **2** | Opened Tabs: **1** | Closed Tabs: **1**

---

- Parent(`P`) opens CHild tab(`C3`) at `t=25`.
- `c3a` - When `C3` initiates a handshake with the Parent.
- `P6` - When `P` receives `C3` message.
- `c2c` - Tab `C2` sends a `custom` message.
- `P7` - When `P` receives a message from tab `C2`. It processes it.
- `P8` - `P` acknowledges the request and sends the `C3` its identity.
- `c3b` - When `C3` receives acknowledgemnet message along with identity from `P`.

---

Total Tabs Associated: **3** | Opened Tabs: **2** | Closed Tabs: **1**

---

- When Parent Tab `P` is closed, all the opened tabs are notified about it.

### Usage

##### Create an instance / reference before using.

**Opener(Parent) tab**

```
var config = {
  onHandshakeCallback: function () { ... },
  onPollingCallback: function () { ... },
  onChildCommunication: function () { ... }
}
var parent = new AcrossTabs.Parent(config);
```

`Constructor` accepts a configurable `Object` with the following keys.

- `heartBeatInterval`: The time interval for polling tabs statuses
- `removeClosedTabs`: Pass it as `true` to have only opened tabs in the list
- `shouldInitImmediately`: Pass it as `false` to create an instance but initialize it later
- `onHandshakeCallback`: Callback to be called when a successful connection has been established
- `onChildCommunication`: Callback to be called when child sends message
- `onPollingCallback`: Callback to be called every time a tab is polled for its status
- `origin`: whitelist `origin` for securing `postMessage` communication. It will discard the malicious messages trying to trick the behavior. Eg. http://example.com
- `parse`: parser used when parsing messages, defaults to `JSON.parse`
- `stringify`: stringifier used when converting data into messages, defaults to `JSON.stringify`

| Config Keys               | default        | accepts                            |
| ------------------------- | -------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| **heartBeatInterval**     | 500 msec       | A number representing milliseconds |
| **removeClosedTabs**      | false          | Boolean                            |
| **shouldInitImmediately** | true           | Boolean                            |
| **onHandshakeCallback**   | Undefined      | Function as callback               |
| **onChildCommunication**  | Undefined      | Function as callback               |
| **onPollingCallback**     | Undefined      | Function as callback               |
| **origin**                | '\*'           | String(url)                        |
| **parse**                 | JSON.parse     | Function                           |
| **stringify**             | JSON.stringify | Function                           |

**New(Child tab)**

```
var config = {
  onReady: onReady,
  onInitialize: onInitialize,
  isSiteInsideFrame: false, // dont set if not required
  handshakeExpiryLimit: 4000, // msec
  onParentDisconnect: onParentDisconnect,
  onParentCommunication: onParentCommunication
};
var child =  new AcrossTabs.Child(config);
```

`Constructor` accepts a configurable `Object` with the following keys.

- `handshakeExpiryLimit`: Time to wait for getting an acknowledgement from Parent window for child's request
- `onReady`: Callback to be invoked once child instance is ready
- `onInitialize`: Callback when a child instance is actually initiated
- `onParentDisconnect`: Callback to be invoked when Parent gets disconnected
- `onParentCommunication`: Callback to be invoked whenever Parent communicates with the child tab
- `isSiteInsideFrame`: If the library is loaded inside an iframe in the child tab, this needs to be set `true` for maintaining proper window/frame(s) references
- `origin`: whitelist `origin` for securing `postMessage` communication. It will discard the malicious messages trying to trick the behavior. Eg. http://example.com
- `parse`: parser used when parsing messages, defaults to `JSON.parse`
- `stringify`: stringifier used when converting data into messages, defaults to `JSON.stringify`

| Config Keys               | default        | accepts                                |
| ------------------------- | -------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| **handshakeExpiryLimit**  | 5000 msec      | A number representing milliseconds     |
| **isSiteInsideFrame**     | null           | If child tab has actual site in a fram |
| **onReady**               | Undefined      | Function as callback                   |
| **onInitialize**          | Undefined      | Function as callback                   |
| **onParentDisconnect**    | Undefined      | Function as callback                   |
| **onParentCommunication** | Undefined      | Function as callback                   |
| **origin**                | '\*'           | String(url)                            |
| **parse**                 | JSON.parse     | Function                               |
| **stringify**             | JSON.stringify | Function                               |

**Example** is included in the `example` folder. `Vanilla JS` and `Vue js` versions are there to test out.
_Note:_ Run `npm install` if you wish to run `vuejs` example since the example needs the `vue-js` library to work.

### API

Refer [above section](#create-an-instance--reference-before-using) on how to create an instance before hitting API methods.

##### Opener Tab(Parent) Methods

- **`openNewTab`**

Saves `data` in specific `key` in sessionStorage. If the key is not provided, the library will warn.
  Following types of JavaScript objects are supported:

| Parameter | Description                                   |
  | --------- | --------------------------------------------- |
  | config    | For opening a new tab i.e. URL and windowName |

```
    parent.openNewTab({url: 'http://example.com', windowName: 'AcrossTab'});
  ```

- **`enableElements`**

Links / buttons can be given a data attribute: `data-tab-opener="name"`. On clicking, the library finds elements with that attribute and adds `disabled="disabled"` attribute to that element. The `disabled` attribute is removed once the Child tab communicates back to the opener i.e. Parent. Though, this method is called internally but can also be invoked(may be within a timer) to be on a safer side.

```
    parent.enableElements();
  ```

- **`getAllTabs`**

Returns the list of all the tabs.
  If `removeClosedTabs: true` is provided while instantiating, it will return only the opened tabs as closed tabs would be removed.

```
    parent.getAllTabs()
  ```

- **`getOpenedTabs`**

Returns the list of all `opened` tabs.

```
    parent.getOpenedTabs();
  ```

- **`getClosedTabs`**

Returns the list of all `closed` tabs.
  If `removeClosedTabs: true` is provided while instantiating, it will return empty list as closed tabs would be removed.

```
    parent.getClosedTabs();
  ```

- **`closeAllTabs`**

Closes all the opened tabs.

```
    parent.closeAllTabs()
  ```

- **`closeTab`**

Closes a particular tab whose id is provided.

| Parameter | Description                |
  | --------- | -------------------------- |
  | id        | id of the tab to be closed |

```
    parent.closeTab('57cd47da-d98e-4a2d-814c-9b07cb51059c');
  ```

- **`broadCastAll`**

Sends a same `message` to all the opened tabs.

| Parameter | Description   |
  | --------- | ------------- |
  | msg       | msg to be ent |

```
    parent.broadCastAll('Hello my dear Child! A greeting from Parent.');
  ```

- **`broadCastTo`**

Sends a `message` to a particular opened tab.

| Parameter | Description                  |
  | --------- | ---------------------------- |
  | id        | id of the tab to send an msg |
  | msg       | msg to be sent               |

```
    parent.broadCastTo('57cd47da-d98e-4a2d-814c-9b07cb51059c', 'Hey! Can you run the script: worker.js? Thanks!');
  ```

##### New Tab(Child) Methods

- **`getTabInfo`**

Return id, name, and parentName of the child tab.

```
    child.getTabInfo();
  ```

- **`sendMessageToParent`**

Sends a `message` to the `Parent` tab.

| Parameter | Description    |
  | --------- | -------------- |
  | msg       | msg to be sent |

```
    child.sendMessageToParent('Hey Parent! I\'m done with my work.');
  ```

### Browser Support

Tested in Chrome, Firefox and IE(versions >= 9).

### Sites using across-tabs

- app.vwo.com
- _[Add your site]_ - See [Contributing](#contributing) section

### Development Stack

- Webpack based `src` compilation & bundling and `dist` generation.
- ES6 as a source of writing code.
- Exports in a [UMD](https://github.com/umdjs/umd) format so the library works everywhere.
- Linting with [ESLint](http://eslint.org/).
- ES6 test setup with [Karma](https://karma-runner.github.io/1.0/index.html), [Jasmine](https://jasmine.github.io/2.0/introduction.html) and [isparta](https://github.com/deepsweet/isparta-loader).
- Test coverage with [Istanbul]() and [Coveralls](https://coveralls.io/).

### Process

```
ES6 source files
       |
       |
    webpack
       |
       +--- babel, eslint
       |
       o--- tests and covergae
       |
  ready to use
     library
  in UMD format
```

### Scripts

- `npm run build` - produces production version(minified) of the library under the `dist` folder
- `npm run dev` - produces development version(un minified) of the library and runs a watcher to detect file changes.
- `npm run test` - well ... it runs the tests :)

### Contributing

1. Fork the repo on GitHub.
2. Clone the repo on a machine.
3. Execute `npm install` and `npm run dev`.
4. Create a new branch `<fix-typo>` and do your work.
5. Run `npm run build` to build dist files and `npm run test` to ensure all test cases are passing.
6. Commit your changes to the branch.
7. Submit a Pull request.

**Note:** If adding site to the list of _sites using across-tabs_, please mention where to verify this in the PR description.

### Roadmap

- Having a Queue mechanism to deal with loads of async events.
- Promise based `Parent-Child` communication. Will help in sending window-specific data to and fro apart from custom data messages.
- E2E testing so that the behavior can be tested automatically.
- Maintaining and adding more enhancements as and when required. Open to everyone's suggestions.
