Example

Examples:

  • example\flutter_app simple chat application
  • example\console simple console application

Usage

Create client:

import 'package:centrifuge/centrifuge.dart' as centrifuge;

final client = centrifuge.createClient("ws://localhost:8000/connection/websocket?format=protobuf");

Note that ?format=protobuf is required because this library only works with Protobuf protocol.

Connect to server:

client.connect();

Subscribe to channel:

final subscription = client.getSubscription(channel);

subscription.publishStream.listen(onEvent);
subscription.joinStream.listen(onEvent);  
subscription.leaveStream.listen(onEvent);
subscription.subscribeSuccessStream.listen(onEvent);
subscription.subscribeErrorStream.listen(onEvent);
subscription.unsubscribeStream.listen(onEvent);

subscription.subscribe();

Publish:

final output = jsonEncode({'input': message});
final data = utf8.encode(output);
await subscription.publish(data);
