This package enables graphql subscriptions using presence channels of the [laravel-echo-server](https://github.com/tlaverdure/laravel-echo-server). For a client solution, check out the [Apollo Lighthouse Subscription Link](https://github.com/thekonz/apollo-lighthouse-subscription-link). Installation ------------ [](#installation) *I assume that you already have [Lighthouse](https://lighthouse-php.com/) and [laravel-echo-server](https://github.com/tlaverdure/laravel-echo-server) installed. If not, please check out their installation steps before continuing.* Install the package with composer: ``` composer require thekonz/lighthouse-redis-broadcaster ``` Add the service provider **after** the Lighthouse subscription service provider in the `config/app.php`: ``` /* * Package Service Providers... */ \Nuwave\Lighthouse\Subscriptions\SubscriptionServiceProvider::class, \thekonz\LighthouseRedisBroadcaster\SubscriptionServiceProvider::class, ``` Add this to your `.env`: ``` LIGHTHOUSE_BROADCASTER=redis REDIS_PREFIX= ``` If you do not set the `REDIS_PREFIX` to empty, it will default to `_database_` (by default: `laravel_database_`) and all redis channels will be prefixed with it. Setting up automatic removal of subscription channels ----------------------------------------------------- [](#setting-up-automatic-removal-of-subscription-channels) Lighthouse by default does not remove vacated channels. In order to prevent redis from running low on memory all the time, you need to configure the laravel-echo-server to publish updates about its presence channels and run a subscriber that removes vacated channels from redis. Enable presence channel updates in your `laravel-echo-server.json` by setting `publishPresence` to `true`: ``` "databaseConfig": { ... "publishPresence": true } ``` Run the subscription command to remove vacated channels: ``` php artisan lighthouse:subscribe ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) *If you are using Apollo, you should use the [Apollo Lighthouse Subscription Link](https://github.com/thekonz/apollo-lighthouse-subscription-link).* Create a subscription as described in the [Lighthouse docs](https://lighthouse-php.com/4.12/subscriptions/defining-fields.html). For the purpose of demonstration, I assume the subscription is `postUpdated` like in the docs. Now query the api: ``` subscription test { postUpdated { id title } } ``` The response will be: ``` { "data": { "postUpdated": null }, "extensions": { "lighthouse_subscriptions": { "version": 1, "channels": { "test": "private-lighthouse-9RrjQE84nqaxXt58ZsgREPaI9AxGjAv4-1588101712" } } } } ``` Now you may use laravel echo to monitor the subscription as a presence channel: ``` Echo.join( "private-lighthouse-9RrjQE84nqaxXt58ZsgREPaI9AxGjAv4-1588101712" ).listen(".lighthouse.subscription", ({ channel, data }) => { console.log(channel); // private-lighthouse-9RrjQE84nqaxXt58ZsgREPaI9AxGjAv4-1588101712 console.log(data); // { postUpdated: { id: 1, title: "New title" } } }); ``` Contributing and issues ----------------------- [](#contributing-and-issues) Feel free to contribute to this package using the issue system and pull requests on the `develop` branch.
