Websockets - Locally Hosted Alternative for Pusher (Now Free)

Kyrne

mekici I did, there's no good space to put it right now. I'll look into another place to put it, maybe under or on top of the mobile slider. For the future though.

Typing indicator still works.

mekici

Kyrne I understand. Thanks again for the update.

tuxmain Did you set up websockets with nginx reserve proxy + apache2?

@Kyrne Can you provide a detailed guide/instructions how to make websockets work on nginx+acpahe2?

Kyrne

HD3D Apache will not have any effect on the setup of the websocket server using my methods. You will only need to utilize the nginx portion. Check the GitHub page for detailed instructions on how to set that up.

If you want to use Apache for it I cannot provide support, I've never attempted it and it doesn't seem like the best method to me as Apache wasn't built with proxy-ing in mind.

I use Apache only, as a reverse proxy. I just posted my config in case other people who don't want to use nginx want to use this extension.

Kyrne Ok thanks

I'm now using websockets with Option 2 - Websocket server handles SSL

Everything seems to work great but I'm noticing that my forum is hanging after a few minutes and becomes all discussions disappear, it can't be refresh by clicking on the forum logo but only by refreshing the browser's refresh button and then it works for a few minutes and so on

Also, After running php flarum websocket:serve it is running for minutes, am I suppose to just close the putty like that?

Below is the screenshot of putty constantly running for minutes after running php flarum websocket:serve command

Edit:
I notice that my server is getting automatic restart
These are the console errors when forum goes on blank and refresh mode

Edit2:
Another issue I'm facing is that websockets runs only if I run "php flarum websocket:serve" command in putty and let it run, websockets stops working as soon as I close putty

HD3D The php flarum websocket:serve command needs to run constantly. The websocket does not work because the nu command stops working as soon as you exit the console. There are several ways to make this command run continuously. I am using Supervisor. I advise. https://flarumtr.com/d/2293-flarumda-supervisor-usage Here I have explained the supersisior setup and its configuration for websocket. But Turkish.

https://discuss.flarum.org/d/28052-realtime-self-hosted-websocket-for-instant-updates You can also check this for supervisor usage.

This is to be expected. Simplest workaround is nohup php flarum websocket:serve &. If the machine is running systemd, I would create a systemd service unit.

mekici tuxmain streaps Thanks for the help guys

@Kyrne I have successfully configured websockets through Option 1 - Proxy w/ SSL (Recommended) but there are some issues I'm facing..
Cleared cache, purged CF cache but I still see the text below

When I click on the yellow bar to refresh, it throws the below error on my console

HD3D the recipientUsers is something from byobu. It seems to cause an issue, perhaps this extension does not trigger the right includes when asking clients to load data?

HD3D

luceos That's right, disabling byobu fixed websockets, hopefully this issue gets fixed asap as I can't afford to disable byobu

Kyrne

3.0.4

Fix byobu compat

@Kyrne There is an issue with fof/polls too (probably because the pusher object provided by this extension isn't 100% like the one provided by pusher), I reported it last week on the extension GitHub but maybe it is more of a problem on your side?

ornanovitch

Wooohoo it works very well thanks!

There is only a weird translation problem on my side, the "discussion update" button (kyrne-websocket.forum.discussion_list.show_updates_text) does not appear on the forum. In place I have kyrne-websocket.ADMIN.discussion_list.show_updates_text, without translation:

ornanovitch

ornanovitch It comes from this line:

 loading: this.loadingUpdated,
   }, app.translator.trans('kyrne-websocket.admin.discussion_list.show_updates_text', {count}))

which seems to be wrong regarding the translation:

forum:

# These translations are used in the discussion list.
    discussion_list:
        show_updates_text: "{count, plural, one {Show # updated discussion} other {Show # updated discussions}}"

MohdKhan

hello,

is there anyone who can post detailed installation steps using SSL.
I'm using LiteSpeed and find it little difficult to install websocket on my server .

Thanks

Kyrne The presence channel can be accessed via app.discussions.presence, it is automatically updated with the discussion that the user is currently viewing (don't forget to bind to an event each time a new discussion is viewed!)

Does anyone tried already make it works with Online users extension?

It would be great - especially if style will be similar to this:

@"[deleted]"#p164662 Please can you make this type of layout not in sidebar on homepage

You can also give alternative layout option like fof best answer
