## API
The entrypoint to the library is the `sylkrtc` object. Several objects (`Connection`, `Account` and `Call`) inherit from Node's `EventEmitter` class, you may want to check [its documentation](https://nodejs.org/api/events.html).
### sylkrtc
The main entrypoint to the library. It exposes the main function to connect to SylkServer and some utility functions for general use.
#### sylkrtc.createConnection(options={})
Creates a `sylkrtc` connection towards a SylkServer instance. The supported options are "server" and optional object "userAgent". Where server should point to the WebSocket endpoint of the WebRTC gateway application. Example: `wss://1.2.3.4:8088/webrtcgateway/ws`.
It returns a `Connection` object.
Example:
let connection = sylkrtc.createConnection({server: 'wss://1.2.3.4:8088/webrtcgateway/ws'});
If the optional userAgent object is given, it should contain:
* `name` : string with the name of the application.
* `version`: version string of the application.
Example with userAgent:
let connection = sylkrtc.createConnection({server: 'wss://1.2.3.4:8088/webrtcgateway/ws', userAgent: {name: 'Some Apllication', version: '0.99.9'}});
#### sylkrtc.utils
Helper module with utility functions.
* `attachMediaStream`: function to easily attach a media stream to an element. It reexports [attachmediastream](https://github.com/otalk/attachMediaStream).
* `closeMediaStream`: function to close the given media stream.
* `sanatizeHtml`: function to XSS sanitize html strings
### Connection
Object representing the interaction with SylkServer. Multiple connections can be created with
`sylkrtc.createConnection`, but typically only one is needed. Reconnecting in case the connection is interrupted is
taken care of automatically.
Events emitted:
* **stateChanged**: indicates the WebSocket connection state has changed. Two arguments are provided: `oldState` and
`newState`, the old connection state and the new connection state, respectively. Possible state values are: null,
connecting, connected, ready, disconnected and closed. If the connection is involuntarily interrupted the state will
transition to disconnected and the connection will be retried. Once the closed state is set, as a result of the user
calling Connection.close(), the connection can no longer be used or reconnected.
* **publicKey**: emitted after a publicKey lookup. One argument is provided: the result from the lookup request. This
is an object with the following attributes publicKey and uri.
#### Connection.addAccount(options={}, cb=null)
Configures an `Account` to be used through `sylkrtc`. 2 options are required: *account* (the account ID) and
*password*. An optional *displayName* can be set. The account won't be registered, it will just be created.
Optionally *realm* can be passed, which will be used instead of the domain for the HA1 calculation.
The *password* won't be stored or transmitted as given, the HA1 hash (as used in
[Digest access authentication](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digest_access_authentication)) is created and used instead.
The `cb` argument is a callback which will be called with an error and the account object
itself.
Example:
connection.addAccount({account: saghul@sip2sip.info, password: 1234}, function(error, account) {
if (error) {
console.log('Error adding account!' + account);
} else {
console.log('Account added!');
}
});
#### Connection.removeAccount(account, cb=null)
Removes the given account. The callback will be called once the operation completes (it
cannot fail). The callback will be called with an error object.
Example:
connection.removeAccount(account, function(error) {
console('Account removed!');
});
#### Connection.lookupPublicKey(uri)
Lookup the public key of an uri on the server. A `publicKey` event will be emitted with the lookup result.
#### Connection.reconnect()
Starts reconnecting immediately if the state was 'disconnected';
#### Connection.close()
Close the connection with SylkServer. All accounts will be unbound.
#### Connection.state
Getter property returning the current connection state.
### Account
Object representing a SIP account which will be used for making / receiving calls.
Events emitted:
* **registrationStateChanged**: indicates the SIP registration state has changed. Three arguments are provided:
`oldState`, `newState` and `data`. `oldState` and `newState` represent the old registration state and the new
registration state, respectively, and `data` is a generic per-state data object. Possible states:
* null: registration hasn't started or it has ended
* registering: registration is in progress
* registered
* failed: registration failed, the `data` object will contain a 'reason' property.
* **outgoingCall**: emitted when an outgoing call is made. A single argument is provided: the `Call` object.

an `originator` attribute indicating who invited us, and a `room` attribute indicating what conference we have been invited to.
* **incomingMessage**: emitted when a message is received. A single argument is provided: the `Message` object.
* **messageStateChanged**: emitted when a message state has changed. Three arguments are provided, 'id', 'state' and a `data` object.
The `data` object contains a reason and code.
* **sendingMessage**: emitted when sending a message. A single argument is provided which is the `message` object which is sent.
* **sendingDispositionNotification**: emitted when sending a disposition notification. Multiple arguments are provided. The `id`, `state` and `error`.
The `error` can be null
* **syncConversations**: emitted when the syncConversations function has
results. A single argument is provided: a list of `Message` objects. Each `Message`
has same fields as a normal message. There are some 'special' content types, they are used for replication events:
* message/imdn: content will contain the message_id,
message_timestamp and state for the disposition change.
* application/sylk-message-remove: content will contain the contact
and message_id fields for the message that needs to be removed.
* application/sylk-conversation-read: content will contain the uri of the contact for whom all messages should be set
to `displayed`
