How to get Chat Name from Websocket?

accalia

It looks like this is the websocket method i want to call, but i can't seem to get a response out of it....

i/ve tried socket.emit('modules.chats.getRoomData', 1576, function(){console.log(arguments)}) in chrome's console and gotten nothing, even though room 1576 shows up when i execute socket.emit('modules.chats.getRecentChats', {after:0}, function(){console.log(arguments)})

Can someone point me in the right direction here?

Not all methods are available to sockets. Try

socket.emit('modules.chats.loadRoom', {roomId: 1576}, callback);

You won't be able to get any data if the user making the call is not in the room.

ah. that brings me to my next questio..... oh nevermind. loadRooms does give me the users in the room.

socket.emit('modules.chats.loadRoom', {roomId: 1576}, callback);

got it!

and that's got the data i wanted.

now to figure out if there's a way to load a chat message by message id, or if that's just going to have to be a "you need to iterate through the chats for that" thing.

you wouldn't happen to know that one off the top of your head would you? :cute_fox_eyes:

that's fine. it gives me an error on a "bad" room which is what i want anyway.

There is a method to get the raw content of a message by its message id but there is no method to load all the data of a message yet.

interestingly so does sockbot although i recon the two different methods serve rather different purposes.
