Need help for implemeting a real-time chat #145

Open jianuovidiu opened 2 years ago

jianuovidiu commented 2 years ago

Hi,

I am new to socketcluster and I am trying to figure out how to use it. I would like to create a real-time chat with nodejs socketcluster but I am not able to find any documentation on it regarding how to emit messages from client to server and viceversa.

Any help will be highly apprectiated.

Thank you.

This page shows how to do it: https://socketcluster.io/docs/basic-usage/

You just set up a for await of loop with a receiver on one side (server or client) and use socket.transmit(receiverName, data) on the other side. The API is the same on client and server. Either can be transmitter or receiver.
