Introducing Magic Socket 1.0.1

Real-time channels, ready in your Magic app.

Real-time broadcasting for Magic apps through the Echo facade, with a Reverb driver and a null driver. Built for a Reverb or other Pusher-protocol server; the API will look familiar to Laravel Echo users.

Get started View on pub.dev

One facade. Every channel.

Call Echo to listen on public, private and presence channels. The driver you select in broadcasting.default handles the connection.

  • Three channel types

    Echo.channel(name) for public, Echo.private(name) for private (auth through /broadcasting/auth) and Echo.join(name) for presence, with members, onJoin, onLeave.

  • Reconnects on its own

    The Reverb driver reconnects with exponential backoff and jitter and resubscribes every channel after each handshake, so a dropped connection heals without app code.

  • Pick a driver

    broadcasting.default selects reverb for a Reverb or Pusher-protocol server. The default null driver does nothing, so an app without a socket server runs unchanged.

  • Skip the sender

    While a socket is connected and NetworkServiceProvider is registered, an HTTP interceptor adds X-Socket-ID to each request, so the server's toOthers() skips the sender. Echo.socketId reads it.

  • Listen in controllers

    The ListensToBroadcasts mixin lets a MagicController listen on a private channel and clean up with the controller (BroadcastListeners.channel).

  • Test without a socket

    Echo.fake() swaps in FakeBroadcastManager so a test asserts subscriptions and listeners without a socket, and Echo.unfake() restores it.
