Do not forget to install the broadcast driver

BROADCAST_DRIVER=centrifuge

Basic Usage

To configure the Centrifugo server, read the official documentation

For broadcasting events, see the official documentation of laravel

A simple example:

<?php

namespace App\Events;

use Illuminate\Broadcasting\InteractsWithSockets;
use IliaKologrivov\Centrifuge\Channels\Channel;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Broadcasting\ShouldBroadcastNow;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Events\Dispatchable;
use Illuminate\Queue\SerializesModels;

class event implements ShouldBroadcastNow
{
    use Dispatchable, InteractsWithSockets, SerializesModels;

    public function broadcastAs()
    {
        return 'event-name';
    }

    /**
     * Get the channels the event should broadcast on.
     *
     * @return \Centrifuge\Channels\Channel|array
     */
    public function broadcastOn()
    {
        return new Channel('example-channel');
    }
}

Use Blade directive in your views

@centrifugeConnectToken(<custom_user_token>)//get connect token for custom id user
@centrifugeAuthConnectToken(86600)//get connect user for auth user
@centrifugeWsConnectUrl()//get connect url for ws

Example view

<script>
const centrifugeUserToken = '@centrifugeAuthConnectToken(86600)';
const centrifugeConnectionUrl = '@centrifugeWsConnectUrl';
</script>
<script src="{!! mix('/js/app.js') !!}"></script>

Added in bootstrap.js

window.Centrifuge = require('centrifuge');
window.centrifuge = new Centrifuge(centrifugeConnectionUrl);

centrifuge.setToken(centrifugeUserToken);
centrifuge.connect();

centrifuge.on('connect', function(context) {
    console.log('connect', context);
}).on('disconnect', function(context) {
    console.error('disconnect', context);
    centrifuge.disconnect();
}).on('error', function(error) {
    console.error(error);
});
