This method called on every update message.

fn handle_input(&mut self, msg: Self::Input, id: HandlerId)

This method called on every incoming message.

Provided Methods

fn connected(&mut self, _id: HandlerId)

This method called on when a new bridge created.

fn disconnected(&mut self, _id: HandlerId)

This method called on when a new bridge destroyed.

fn destroy(&mut self)
