From nestjs-hexagonal
Creates WebSocket broadcasting infrastructure (NestJS backend) and real-time consumption on the frontend (Next.js or React). Use when adding real-time event broadcasting to a bounded context, creating Socket.IO gateways, or implementing frontend event listeners. Dispatched after infrastructure layer is complete.

WsGatewayPort interface (if not exists)@WebSocketGateway implementation with:
org:${orgId}, user:${userId})@EventsHandler bridge handlers for each domain event that needs broadcasting{ provide: WS_GATEWAY_TOKEN, useExisting: Gateway }Detect the frontend framework by checking the project structure:
next.config.* or app/ directory -> Next.jssrc/App.tsx or vite.config.* -> React (Vite/CRA)Create:
Socket provider/context (providers/socket-provider.tsx or contexts/socket-context.tsx):
// Manages Socket.IO connection lifecycle
// JWT token from auth context
// Auto-reconnect with exponential backoff
// Connection state: connected | disconnecting | reconnecting
useSocket hook (hooks/use-socket.ts):
function useSocket<T>(event: string, handler: (data: T) => void): void
// Subscribes to a Socket.IO event
// Auto-cleanup on unmount
// Type-safe via generic
useSocketConnection hook (hooks/use-socket-connection.ts):
function useSocketConnection(): { isConnected: boolean; reconnecting: boolean }
// Exposes connection state for UI indicators
Event type map (types/socket-events.ts):
interface SocketEventMap {
'order:created': { id: string; total: number; status: string };
'order:status-changed': { id: string; previousStatus: string; newStatus: string };
}
// Type-safe event names and payloads
Integration in components — show how to use:
// In a component or page:
useSocket<OrderCreatedPayload>('order:created', (data) => {
// Invalidate query cache, show toast, update local state
queryClient.invalidateQueries(['orders']);
});
WsGatewayPort is the abstraction — never import gateway directly in domain/application<entity>:<past-tense-verb> (e.g., order:created)After completion, report:
