Publish to wire

api

The WireAPI.PublishWire API enables clients to publish to a wire.

cli

Use the wire command.

Terminal window
./volt wire --help

Publish to a wire using the cli wire command:

Terminal window
./volt wire <wire id>

The wire data is read from STDIN. This enables flows such as:

Terminal window
curl www.google.com | ./volt wire @demo-wire
cat somefile | ./volt wire @demo-wire
./volt wire @demo-wire < anotherfile

fusebox

Navigate to the wire in the resource explorer and use the ‘publish’ button on the bottom panel, which contains a ‘microphone’ icon.

javascript

Use the PublishWire API write data to the wire.

web

const pub = voltApi.PublishWire({ wire_id: "@demo-wire" });
pub.on("error", (err) => console.error(err.message));
pub.on("data", (response) => console.log(response));
pub.on("end", () => console.log("publication ended"));
pub.send({ chunk: "hello" });
pub.send({ chunk: "world" });
