Integrating with realtime-rails

[dreadstar]

Hello Bran, I am trying to integrate your solution here to the Rails integrated realtime-rails solution from Mike Atlas http://mikeatlas.github.io/realtime-rails/

the challenge i am running into is that the socket interface is already being created outside of the angular code:

window.realtime = {};
window.realtime.messageQueue = [];
window.realtime.enabled = false;

I have tried to point. the socket in your service declaration to window.realtime.socketIo (my appis called headcount)

https://github.com/dreadstar/headcount_app5/blob/master/app/assets/javascripts/angular/services.js.coffee (although this is a coffescript file i am actually forcing javascript)

headcount.factory('socket', function ($rootScope) { // var socket = io.connect(); // var socket = io.connect("http://localhost:5001"); var socket = window.realtime.socketIo; return { on: function (eventName, callback) { socket.on(eventName, function () { var args = arguments; $rootScope.$apply(function () { callback.apply(socket, args); }); }); }, emit: function (eventName, data, callback) { socket.emit(eventName, data, function () { var args = arguments; $rootScope.$apply(function () { if (callback) { callback.apply(socket, args); } }); }) } }; });

My controller has the following additions to replicate your your example. it is written in coffescript: https://github.com/dreadstar/headcount_app5/blob/master/app/assets/javascripts/angular/controllers/LocationIndexCtrl.js.coffee

@headcount.controller 'LocationIndexCtrl', ['$scope', '$location', '$http','socket', ($scope, $location, $http, socket) -> $scope.locs[data.msg.obj.id].current_state= data.msg.obj.current_state $scope.locs[data.msg.obj.id].fanscnt= data.msg.obj.fanscnt console.log data

When i switch the EventName to 'realtime_msg' on the server, i can see that my messages are getting to the browser.

you can see the latest version of my code https://github.com/dreadstar/headcount_app5

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Tyrone
