I'm currently having a problem while using Private Pub in a Rails 3 Project. All the examples show the usage of publish/subscribe to a route like this: "/messages/new" But What If the intended route is a little more complex, ie.
routes.rb
resources :messages, only: [] do
post 'chat', on: :member
end
Which will create the following
chat_message POST /messages/:id/chat(.:format) messages#chat
Therefore, I'm using it like this:
view:
= subscribe_to "/messages/#{@cid}/chat"
coffee response view:
<% publish_to "/messages/#{current_user.convos.first.id}/chat" do %>
$('#message-display').append("<%= j render partial: 'shared/single_message', locals: { user: current_user } %>")
<% end %>
But the block will never get triggered! It's supposed to be the same route, right? I mean, the segment key matches... It won't work in any views at all, the code inside the block is never reached. What am I doing wrong?
Please help me!
Jose.
Note. All the examples I've seen seem to showcase the use of this gem for a general chat. My intention, is to create various channels, for various peer-to-peer private conversations (Like Facebook chat)
CoffeeScript doesn't handle ruby blocks. They're ruby blocks. And you can't chain extension in the views/ folder.
