Function createSbsAircraftFeed

Creates a live aircraft feed backed by a persistent TCP connection to dump1090-fa's SBS/BaseStation output. Node-only (raw TCP sockets have no browser API) - not exported from this package's /browser entry.

Reconnects automatically, after reconnectDelayMs, if the connection closes or errors, until stop() is called. Exposes the socket's own connect/close lifecycle as the returned feed's connection:connect/connection:disconnect events and getConnectionState().

import { createSbsAircraftFeed } from '@squawk/adsb-feed';

const feed = createSbsAircraftFeed({ host: '192.168.1.50' });
feed.addEventListener('aircraft:update', (event) => {
  console.log((event as CustomEvent).detail.aircraft);
});
feed.start();
