I've been stuck with Broadcasting on private channel in authentication part. What I have done is, I made custom authEndpoint in Echo server
"authEndpoint": "/broadcastAuth",
Controller:
public function broadcastAuth(Request $request){
$channel = $this->normalizeChannelName($request->channel_name);
$broadcaster = new CustomBroadcaster();
$channelAuth = $broadcaster->verifyUserCanAccessChannel($request, $channel);
if($channelAuth){
return true;
}
return response()->json([
'message' => 'Not allowed'
], 403);
}
I have made a custom broadcaster class that extends Illuminate\Broadcasting\Broadcasters\Broadcaster so that I can override verifyUserCanAccessChannel method My verifyUserCanAccessChannel method:
public function verifyUserCanAccessChannel($request, $channel)
{
Log::info($this->channels);
foreach ($this->channels as $pattern => $callback) {
if (! $this->channelNameMatchesPattern($channel, $pattern)) {
continue;
}
$parameters = $this->extractAuthParameters($pattern, $channel, $callback);
$handler = $this->normalizeChannelHandlerToCallable($callback);
if ($result = $handler($request->user(), ...$parameters)) {
return $this->validAuthenticationResponse($request, $result);
}
}
throw new AccessDeniedHttpException;
}
Here I have logged $this->channels to get the registered channels from routes/channel.php But the result is empty. Here is my BroadcastServiceProvider:
public function boot()
{
require base_path('routes/channels.php');
}
Here is my channel.php:
Broadcast::channel('App.User.{id}', function ($user, $id) {
return (int) $user->id === (int) $id;
});
Broadcast::channel('post-comment.{id}', function ($user, $id){
\Illuminate\Support\Facades\Log::info($user);
return true;
});
And I have uncommented both in config/app.php
Illuminate\Broadcasting\BroadcastServiceProvider::class,
App\Providers\BroadcastServiceProvider::class,
What could be the mistake here. Please help me figure this out. Thank you in advance.
