Download the PHP package soketi/echo-server-core without Composer

The application is now deprecated (security issues-only)

It will not receive any new feature updates. Please consider using soketi/pws, an all-in-one Pusher server equivalent for Echo Server that is written in C and ported to Node.js by the awesome guys at uNetworking/uWebSockets.js.

This application had implementation flaws by using both Pusher and Socket.IO and was a really bad idea. The versions before the deprecation announcement are still working and available for you to use.

Echo Server Core

Echo Server Core is a Laravel utility package used for Socket.IO-based Echo Server application.

This package is meant to be used with soketi/echo-server, a fork of Laravel Echo Server, to give a better robustness to the app managers.

🙌 Usage

Out-of-the-box, you benefit a small range of features, like registering routes to retrieve the apps by using the api apps manager in Node.js.

If you use the Node.js app in a separate environment or location, the .env configurations we get through the docs will not reflect on Node.js app too, so you should additionally configure the Node.js app.

Apps Manager

Checking the configuration file, you might want to use Echo Server Core's database driver alongside with Echo Server's api apps manager. To do so, all the .env variables are set so that they are compatible with Echo Server's ones, so you can easily implement the variables in .env and make both Core & Node.js app to use the same configuration.

A soft default is set as array, meaning that the default driver is the same as the Node.js app, but this time, the array is used from the config file:

API Manager Security

Since the calls to retrieve the apps are exposing secrets, a token is required to be established between Core & Echo Server app, so that we make sure only the Echo Server has access to them.

You should change the default token for security reasons. It is backwards compatible with the Node.js app, meaning that this will let know the Node.js app about the token too.

Echo Broadcaster

This package comes with a custom broadcaster that fixes the issues that normally the Pusher broadcaster has. It supports natively the same Pusher configuration from broadcasting.php, but the only thing is that the driver is called socketio, and you need to pass additional parameters:
