Can't recieve broadcasted message from laravel echo server

[rst630]

In laravel-echo-console:

L A R A V E L  E C H O  S E R V E R

version 1.5.2

⚠ Starting server in DEV mode...

✔  Running at localhost on port 6001
✔  Channels are ready.
✔  Listening for redis events...

Server ready!

[7:07:00 PM] - YSTAl2zDJP0HtuoCAAAA joined channel: public
[7:07:00 PM] - Sending auth request to: https://xxxxx/broadcasting/auth

[7:07:00 PM] - YSTAl2zDJP0HtuoCAAAA authenticated for: private-survey.2
[7:07:00 PM] - YSTAl2zDJP0HtuoCAAAA joined channel: private-survey.2

Channel: laravel_database_private-survey.2
Event: server.message

All looks fine, but I can't recieve this message in browser:

window.Echo.private('survey.2')
 .listen('.server.message', (e) => {
        console.log(e)  
});
e {events: {…}, name: "private-survey.2", socket: p, options: {…}, eventFormatter: t}

My event class:

   public function __construct($message)
    {
        $this->message = $message;
    }

    public function broadcastOn()
    {
        return new PrivateChannel('survey.2');
    }

    public function broadcastAs()
    {
        return 'server.message';
    }

In laravel telescope I see:

{
  message: "wdfwsfwf",
  socket: null
}

does it normal that socket is null? Also always 0 listeners for this event.

What's wrong?

me too

my problem was here Channel: laraveldatabase private-survey.2 change this in config/database.php

echo must join to "survey.2" in this case

if broadcasAs

 public function broadcastAs()
    {
        return 'server.message';
    }

echo must listen ".server.message" - dot before says not using namespace - this is event - not channel!

I've thumbed it up this post. Me too

I believe this issue belongs in https://github.com/laravel/echo/issues/232. This is up to the client to know what namespaced events it wants to listen to.

My understanding is that Laravel is sending the correct namespaced events, laravel-echo-server receives them correctly, but laravel-echo listens to the wrong channel (private-survey.2 instead of listening to laravel_database_private-survey.2).

I'd say laravel-echo needs a new configuration option:

const echo = new Echo({
  // ...
  keyPrefix: "laravel_database_"
});

This should be fixed with laravel-echo-server 1.6.0 and Laravel 6.13

@eightyfive I do believe this is the best solution. cause if ever the system would have multiple clients, multiple redis databases it would know what namespace to listen too.
