let opts = {
    endpoint: "ws://someserver.com/websocket",
    SocketConstructor: WebSocket,
    reconnectInterval: 5000
};
const server = new simpleDDP(opts,[simpleDDPLogin]);

Adds events (login, logout, loginResume, loginSessionLost, loginResumeFailed),methods (login, logout) and userId property which is undefined when user is not logged in or is equal to user._id when user is logged in. Also token property when user is logged in. Plugin automatically resumes authentication if connection with server was lost and then restored back.

let userAuth = await server.login({
  password,
  user: {
      username,
      email
  }
});
