Not getting message in console

[malasgowda]

Hi,

I have followed the readme as it is , but not getting any message on my developer console after binging up the server and sending publish pong 'o:{"a":123, "b":456}' from redis-cli

Code added in broker.js

var scRedis = require('sc-redis');

module.exports.run = function (broker) {
console.log(' >> Broker PID:', process.pid);
scRedis.attach(broker);
};

Code added in server.js

var argv = require('minimist')(process.argv.slice(2));
var SocketCluster = require('socketcluster').SocketCluster;

var socketCluster = new SocketCluster({
workers: Number(argv.w) || 1,
brokers: Number(argv.b) || 1,
port: Number(argv.p) || 8000,
authKey: 'todo',
appName: argv.n || null,
workerController: __dirname + '/worker.js',
brokerController: __dirname + '/broker.js',
socketChannelLimit: 100,
rebootWorkerOnCrash: argv['auto-reboot'] != false,
pingTimeout: 5000,
pingInterval: 2000,
brokerOptions: {
host : '172.16.11.155',
port: 6379
}
});

I had the same issue. Just add the following code to your frontend application:

var socket = socketCluster.connect();

// ...

var pongChannel = socket.subscribe('pong');

pongChannel.on('subscribeFail', function (err) {
    console.log('Failed to subscribe to the pong channel due to error: ' + err);
});

pongChannel.watch(function (data) {
    console.log('Pong channel message:', data);
});

The readme says: Open your browser window and connect to your SC server... By default it's at: http://localhost:8000/ - Then open the developer console. Note that your client will subscribe to a 'pong' channel on SocketCluster. SC-Redis will automatically handle all the synchronization work.
