class StreamsChannel
Ruby on Rails 2.0.23
Since v1.3.3 Last seen in v2.0.23The streams channel delivers all the turbo-stream actions created (primarily) through Turbo::Broadcastable. A subscription to this channel is made for each individual stream that one wishes to listen for updates to. The subscription relies on being passed a signed_stream_name parameter generated by turning a set of streamables into signed stream name using Turbo::Streams::StreamName#signed_stream_name. This is automatically done using the view helper Turbo::StreamsHelper#turbo_stream_from(*streamables). If the signed stream name cannot be verified, the subscription is rejected.
In case if custom behavior is desired, one can create their own channel and re-use some of the primitives from helper modules like Turbo::Streams::StreamName:
class CustomChannel < ActionCable::Channel::Base extend Turbo::Streams::Broadcasts, Turbo::Streams::StreamName include Turbo::Streams::StreamName::ClassMethods def subscribed if (stream_name = verified_stream_name_from_params).present? && subscription_allowed? stream_from stream_name else reject end end def subscription_allowed? # ... end end
This channel can be connected to a web page using :channel option in turbo_stream_from helper:
<%= turbo_stream_from 'room', channel: CustomChannel %>
