Event being broadcasted but client wont pick up on it

[thorlucas]

I'm trying to broadcast a simple event using Redis, Laravel Echo, Laravel Echo Server, and socket.io.
I've got everything in place on the client side. The message is indeed being broadcasted and laravel echo server is picking up on it.

On chat.dev/ I have the client joining. On chat.dev/new I have the event being broadcast.

[5:14:31 PM] - HvEq_a12YnQFJGFiAAAE joined channel: chat
Channel: chat
Event: message.created
CHANNEL chat

So it seems like everything is working. On the client side, I'm including socket.io and it is finding it.

<script src="//{{ Request::getHost() }}:6001/socket.io/socket.io.js"></script>

Then I'm running

import Echo from 'laravel-echo'

window.Echo = new Echo({
    broadcaster: 'socket.io',
    host: window.location.hostname + ':6001'
});


window.Echo.channel('chat')
    .listen('.message.created', (e) => {
        console.log("Got message");
    });

But nothing is being logged to the console. Why?

After a lot of fiddling, the frame is now being received by the client. BUT .listen isn't picking up on it!

42["message.created", "chat", {,…}]
0
:
"message.created"
1
:
"chat"
2
:
{,…}
message
:
{id: 23, body: "Modified", created_at: "2017-07-19 01:11:18", updated_at: "2017-07-19 01:11:18"}
socket
:
null

Hi! I think that your problem is that, by default, Echo Client listens to an event with namespace App\Events. But your event seems to be message.create, without namespace.

See https://laravel.com/docs/5.4/broadcasting#namespaces

[thorlucas]

Nope. That's not it. I'm using the prefix "." syntax to escape the namespace.

[thorlucas]

Plus the frame that's being received only says "messages.created" without any namespace

This looks like a client configuration issue. Closing
