realtime
You can manualy use it by using any server-side WebSocket libraries
What's your use case?
sorry about the delay response i want to be able to listen for document creations on a server
however while the ws connection does say is successful
i do not get any of the events im expecting
i usually get these two messages
Received: '{"type":"connected","data":{"channels":["databases.64be8855815ab10ea802.collections.64be886f3f3564bb2192.documents"],"user":null}}' app.js:48 64 Received: '{"type":"error","data":{"code":0,"message":"array_key_exists(): Argument #2 ($array) must be of type array, int given"}}'
"accept-language": "en-US,en;q=0.9",
"cache-control": "no-cache",
"pragma": "no-cache",
"sec-websocket-extensions": "permessage-deflate; client_max_window_bits",
// "sec-websocket-key": "/oj9X0GI+Sqbh05hLCbqQw==",
"sec-websocket-version": "13"
});```
not sure if i am missing something
i guess i could use a cloud function on this instance and have another messaging api let my server know about the creation
but that just seems like alot of work
nvm the second error was because i was sending data to the server from the client
oh theres a whole auth process that needs to. be done once connected passing the session back to the server to be able to receive the events
hmmm now this has become some work
so typically, servers are able to have an endpoint listening for http requests. can you do that?
sorry dont have much experience with backend
what are you doing for your server? what do you have set up?
like have a cloudfunction call my http endpoint
right now i just have basic express server
but i think you are telling me define a route and call that route
which makes sense now that i think about it
yes, exactly. you can use Appwrite Webhooks https://appwrite.io/docs/webhooks. The webhook can be configured to make a POST request to your express server with the data just like the realtime payload.
This is why it's typically not needed to have realtime in the server SDK
ohhhh thats awesome
makes sense
