User list with Orbiter

[wkolcz]

I am attempting to create a user list of 'whos online' for an application I have developed. When I attempt to add a new user, all the values of the list become the most current user and not a collection of them. I tried it on different browsers to make sure the sessions weren't getting interfered with and can see each person who logs in still have their own identity in the application. Can you see what I am doing wrong? I am using Laravel 4.2 with Blade templating so it might explain why the {{Session::get('first_name')}} might look a little odd.

Code: Select all

function init () {
            orbiter = new net.user1.orbiter.Orbiter();
            orbiter.getConnectionMonitor().setAutoReconnectFrequency(15000);
            orbiter.getLog().setLevel(net.user1.logger.Logger.DEBUG);

            orbiter.addEventListener(net.user1.orbiter.OrbiterEvent.READY, readyListener, this);
            orbiter.addEventListener(net.user1.orbiter.OrbiterEvent.CLOSE, closeListener, this);

            occupantlist = document.getElementById("occupantlist");
            occupantlist.style.width = "100%";

            orbiter.connect("tryunion.com", 80);
        }

        //==============================================================================
        // ORBITER EVENT LISTENERS
        //==============================================================================
        function readyListener (e) {
            chatRoom = orbiter.getRoomManager().createRoom("{{Str::slug(Session::get('rescue_name')).'-'.Session::get('org_id')}}");
            chatRoom.addEventListener(net.user1.orbiter.RoomEvent.ADD_OCCUPANT, addOccupantListener);
            chatRoom.addEventListener(net.user1.orbiter.RoomEvent.REMOVE_OCCUPANT, removeOccupantListener);
            chatRoom.join();
        }

        // Triggered when the connection is closed
        function closeListener (e) {

        }

        function addOccupantListener (e) {
            addListOption("{{Session::get('first_name')}} {{Session::get('last_name')}}", e.getClientID());
        }

        function removeOccupantListener (e) {
            alert('Elvis has left the building');
            removeListOption(e.getClientID());
        }

        function addListOption (name, value) {
            var ul = document.getElementById("occupantlist");
            var li = document.createElement("li");
            li.setAttribute("id", value);
            li.appendChild(document.createTextNode(name));
            ul.appendChild(li);
        }

        function removeListOption (value) {
            var elem = document.getElementById(value);
            elem.parentNode.removeChild(elem);
        }

Thanks and let me know if you can tell me how to create a list of each person logged in.

Have you tried this?

Code: Select all

// get a ClientManager instance, and then call getClients()
cliManager = orbiter.getClientManager();
clientList = cliManager.getClients();


See http://unionplatform.com/docs/reactor/a ... etClients()
(or the analogous page for your version)

The detailed documentation is provided for Reactor rather than Orbiter.
