This episode is part 5 in a Phoenix 1.4 Chat Server series:
In this episode we build out the chat page, and set up Phoenix Channels along with the JavaScript to connect to them. Here's the plan:
-
Create the
eex template for the chatrooms
-
Set up the
UserSocket and RoomChannel on the back-end.
-
Write the JavaScript for the chat room to connect to the socket and join the appropriate channel.
-
Display chats on the front-end.
At the end of this episode, we have an anonymous chat set up for each room created.
