Lars Bo Rasmussen b4b760274d Fix calling wrong method in README for ws (#26631)
The documentation is wrong. The WebSocketClient.authorize() is not a method of WebSocketClient. The right method is WebSocketClient.initialize()

# Mattermost Client
[![npm version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/@mattermost/client?style=flat)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@mattermost/client)
This package contains the JavaScript/TypeScript client for [Mattermost](https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost). It's used by [the Mattermost web app](https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost/tree/master/webapp/channels) and related projects.
## Installation
### JavaScript
```sh
$ npm install @mattermost/client
```
### TypeScript
```sh
$ npm install @mattermost/client @mattermost/types
```
## Usage
### Rest Client
To use this client, create an instance of `Client4`, set the server URL, and log in, and then you can start making requests.
```js
import {Client4} from '@mattermost/client';
const client = new Client4();
client.setUrl('https://mymattermostserver.example.com');
client.login('username', 'password').then((user) => {
// ...
});
```
If you already have a session token or a user access token, you can call `Client4.setToken` instead of logging in.
```js
import {Client4} from '@mattermost/client';
const client = new Client4();
client.setUrl('https://mymattermostserver.example.com');
client.setToken('accesstoken');
```
If needed, methods exist to set other headers such as the User-Agent (`Client4.setUserAgent`), the CSRF token (`Client4.setCSRF`), or any extra headers you wish to include (`Client4.setHeader`).
Methods of `Client4` which make requests to the server return a `Promise` which does the following:
- On success, the promise resolves to a `ClientResponse<T>` object which contains the the [Response](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Response) (`response`), a [Map](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Map) of headers (`headers`), and the data sent from the server (`data`).
- On an error, the promise rejects with a `ClientError` which contains the error message and the URL being requested. If the error happened on the server, the status code and an error ID (`server_error_id`) are included.
```js
let user;
try {
user = (await client.getUser('userid')).data;
} catch (e) {
console.error(`An error occurred when making a request to ${e.url}: ${e.message}`);
}
```
### WebSocket Client
To use the WebSocket client, create an instance of `WebSocketClient` and then call its `initialize` method with the connection URL and an optional session token or user access token. After that, you can call the client's `addMessageListener` method to register a listener which will be called whenever a WebSocket message is received from the server.
```js
import {WebSocketClient} from '@mattermost/client';
// If you already have an instance of Client4, you can call its getWebSocketUrl method to get this URL
const connectionUrl = 'https://mymattermostserver.example.com/api/v4/websocket';
// In a browser, the token may be passed automatically from a cookie
const authToken = process.env.TOKEN;
const wsClient = new WebSocketClient();
wsClient.initialize(connectionUrl, authToken);
wsClient.addMessageListener((msg) => {
if (msg.event === 'posted') {
console.log('New post received', JSON.parse(msg.data.post));
}
});
```
#### Node.js
Note that `WebSocketClient` expects `globalThis.WebSocket` to be defined as it was originally written for use in the Mattermost web app. If you're using it in a Node.js environment, you should set `globalThis.WebSocket` before instantiating the `WebSocketClient`.
```js
import WebSocket from 'ws';
if (!globalThis.WebSocket) {
globalThis.WebSocket = WebSocket;
}
const wsClient = new WebSocketClient();
```
This can also be done using dynamic imports if you're using them.
```js
if (!globalThis.WebSocket) {
const {WebSocket} = await import('ws');
globalThis.WebSocket = WebSocket;
}
const wsClient = new WebSocketClient();
```
## Compilation and Packaging
As a member of Mattermost with write access to our NPM organization, you can build and publish this package by running the following commands:
```bash
npm run build --workspace=platform/client
npm publish --workspace=platform/client
```
Make sure to increment the version number in `package.json` first! You can add `-0`, `-1`, etc for pre-release versions.
