I was test driving Self-Hosted Appwrite for my use with Swift IOS apps as a backend while back and after successful trials, I started to move to incorporate into my actual apps. I setup Realtime for TablesDB updates and everything was working great in my test app. When I finally moved to incorporating, Realtime stopped working.
I am y=using Self-Host version 1.9.0. Due to the version mismatch, I downgraded my SDK-Apple version to 16.0.0, but found out Realtime no longer worked.
After incremental steps back, I was able to determine that the break happens between 14.0.0 and 14.1.0.
I am subscribing to realtime as follows to trigger my function for any table update per the Realtime Channels Documentation:
subscription = try? await realTime.subscribe( channels: [ Channel.rows() ]) { response in Task { try? await self.processRealtimeResponse(response) } }
This works in 14.0.0, but in 14.1.0+ I get the following errors in the appwrite-realtime log:
[Error] Type: Appwrite\Extend\Exception [Error] Message: Invalid query: Syntax error [Error] File: /usr/src/code/app/realtime.php [Error] Line: 716
When looking at server realtime.php cited above, it appears the line is separate from the Realtime queries feature and just a generic error for malformed realtime queries on the server.
I even tried capturing the subscribe code above in a do->catch instead of try? and no error is thrown on my iOS side. In fact if I do a test output after the above, iOS appears to report it as assigned:
print("realTime: \(realTime)") ```
> subscription: Optional(Appwrite.RealtimeSubscription)
> realTime: Appwrite.Realtime
Can I get some help me get the Realtime subscription working again, as I appear to be using the correct syntax per documentation that I find?
