I'm building a live chat app, but I found that listenforwhisper
function is not working, but .whisper()
function works fine, pusher also received client typing event.
Here is my code:
For listen whisper:
Echo.private(`messages.${this.user.id}`)
.listen("NewMessage", (e) => {
this.handleIncoming(e.message);
})
.listenForWhisper("typing", (e) => {
if(e.name !='') {
this.typeStatus = 'typing .........'
}
else {
this.typeStatus = ''
}
console.log(this.typeStatus);
});
For whisper:
watch: {
message() {
Echo.private(`messages.${this.user.id}`)
.whisper("typing", {
name: this.message
});
}
}
For channel:
Broadcast::channel('messages.{id}', function ($user, $id) {
return (int) $user->id === (int) $id;
});
Theoretically, my console will return the typeStatus
, but I got nothing in my console.
Whisper works like broadcastToOthers. You're now trying to listen for the current users whispers. You should have a room where the whisper goes to and there should be multiple clients there to recieve. Now your channel is tied to the user and no-one else can see the messages that go through that channel.
