[SocketIO v2](https://socket.io/docs/v2/) is used for sending updates from
|
|
Flamenco Manager to the web frontend. Version 2 of the protocol was chosen,
|
|
because that has a mature Go server implementation readily available.
|
|
|
|
SocketIO messages have an *event name* and *room name*.
|
|
|
|
- **Web interface clients** send messages to the server with just an *event
|
|
name*. These are received in handlers set up by
|
|
`internal/manager/webupdates/webupdates.go`, function
|
|
`registerSIOEventHandlers()`.
|
|
- **Manager** typically sends to all clients in a specific *room*. Which client
|
|
has joined which room is determined by the Manager as well. By default every
|
|
client joins the "job updates" and "chat" rooms. This is done in the
|
|
`OnConnection` handler defined in `registerSIOEventHandlers()`.
|
|
- Received messages (regardless of by whom) are handled based only on their
|
|
*event name*. The *room name* only determines *which* client receives those
|
|
messages.
