Fault Managment #442

Closed faienz93 closed 6 years ago

faienz93 commented 6 years ago

Good Afternoon, I want to ask about the fault management between two peers after the connection has been established. I have seen from documentation (and i try it) that if I establish a connection with a new peer that is disconnected, i obtain: 'peer-unavailable'. Right. But if i have already establish connection between peer A and peer B and B for example refresh the page, then the peer A is able to send message to peer B. Are there a way for take a feedback/callback ? I think that one possible solution is make a server-request. Is it correct ?

Sorry, I don't get your point, if you refresh the page, the browser will try to reconnect everything, so it will be as nothing happened for the user. The behavior will be different if you for example open the url in another tab.

Exactly, if the I refresh the page are there callback from the server ? Now i have resolved whit a polling that every 5 second ask to the server if a peer is disconnected.

The server has nothing to do here, PeerServer is a signaling server, that is, it helps your peer A to connect with peer B, after that the whole communication is only between A and B. The server doesn't know when someone disconnects or anything.
