/**
 * This behaves like a WebSocket in every way, except if it fails to connect,
 * or it gets disconnected, it will repeatedly poll until it successfully connects
 * again.
 *
 * It is API compatible, so when you have:
 *   ws = new WebSocket('ws://....');
 * you can replace with:
 *   ws = new ReconnectingWebSocket('ws://....');
 *
 * The event stream will typically look like:
 *  onconnecting
 *  onopen
 *  onmessage
 *  onmessage
 *  onclose // lost connection
 *  onconnecting
 *  onopen  // sometime later...
 *  onmessage
 *  onmessage
 *  etc...
 *
 * It is API compatible with the standard WebSocket API, apart from the following members:
 *
 * - `bufferedAmount`
 * - `extensions`
 * - `binaryType`
 *
 * Latest version: https://github.com/joewalnes/reconnecting-websocket/
 * - Joe Walnes
 *
 * Syntax
 * ======
 * var socket = new ReconnectingWebSocket(url, protocols, options);
 *
 * Parameters
 * ==========
 * url - The url you are connecting to.
 * protocols - Optional string or array of protocols.
 * options - See below
 *
 * Options
 * =======
 * Options can either be passed upon instantiation or set after instantiation:
 *
 * var socket = new ReconnectingWebSocket(url, null, { debug: true, reconnectInterval: 4000 });
 *
 * or
 *
 * var socket = new ReconnectingWebSocket(url);
 * socket.debug = true;
 * socket.reconnectInterval = 4000;
 *
 * debug
 * - Whether this instance should log debug messages. Accepts true or false. Default: false.
 *
 * automaticOpen
 * - Whether or not the websocket should attempt to connect immediately upon instantiation. The socket can be manually opened or closed at any time using ws.open() and ws.close().
 *
 * reconnectInterval
 * - The number of milliseconds to delay before attempting to reconnect. Accepts integer. Default: 1000.
 *
 * maxReconnectInterval
 * - The maximum number of milliseconds to delay a reconnection attempt. Accepts integer. Default: 30000.
 *
 * reconnectDecay
 * - The rate of increase of the reconnect delay. Allows reconnect attempts to back off when problems persist. Accepts integer or float. Default: 1.5.
 *
 * timeoutInterval
 * - The maximum time in milliseconds to wait for a connection to succeed before closing and retrying. Accepts integer. Default: 2000.
 *
