Dancer2::Plugin::WebSocket::Group

VERSION

version 0.1.2

SYNOPSIS

    websocket_on_message sub {
        my( $conn, $message ) = @_;

        if ( $message eq 'tell to everybody' ) {
            $conn->to( '* ' )->send( "HEY, Y'ALL!" );
        }
    };

DESC

Those objects are generated via the to method of the Dancer2::Plugin::WebSocket::Connection objects, and allow to easily send to groups of connections.

In addition to any channels one might fancy creating, each connection also has a private channel that is associated to its numerical id, and a global channel * also exist to send messages to all connections.

Methods

send( $message )

Send the message to all connections of the group.

    $conn->to( 'players' )->send( "Hi!" );

broadcast( $message )

Send the message to all connections of the group, except the original connection.

    websocket_on_message sub {
        my( $conn, $msg ) = @_;

        if ( $msg eq ='resign' ) {
            $conn->broadcast( "player ", $conn->idm " resigned" );
        }
    }
