[SOLVED] Realtime query - Threads - Appwrite

Skip to content

Hello, how could I get documents with a similar attribute in real time?

TL;DR

The user is asking for help with implementing a realtime query in their app. They are facing issues with the 'channel' attribute and the 'event' attribute. They suggest subscribing to an attribute and triggering a query, but the solution doesn't seem to be working. The user mentions finding an issue on GitHub but doesn't provide further details. They acknowledge that applying a filter may be necessary. The user also gives an example of wanting to see comments in real time based on a postId attribute. They ask for guidance on how to achieve this.

What do you mean?

For example, I have a posts collection and I want to see the comments in real time. I save comments with the postId attribute. How do I get only the comments for that post?

Filter client side

It seems that I understand, this would be done in the event property

What do you mean?

subscription.stream.listen((response) { // here I would apply the filter? }

https://github.com/appwrite/appwrite/issues/2490 ohh I found the issue, still doesn't seem possible for now. Thanks in advance

Use an if statement

Right, that's what I'm going to do for the moment for the hackathon. Thanks and regards

[SOLVED] Realtime query

Isn't that possible to achieve that by:

Subscribing to an attribute (same attribute)
Triggering a database query to get the last document with such attribute

It seems that this makes your app listen to all changes made in the database at once? (not only the ones with the attribute?)

there is no attribute channel. plus the attribute event is an update on the collection, not the document
