问题
I'm pushing messages in Play Framework WebSockets using Concurrent.unicast[JsValue], and I want to optimize sending the same message to multiple users. Is it possible to broadcast message using somehow multiple Concurrent.Channel?
回答1:
Short answer
Maintain separate channel for each user and have groups associated with users

val (enumerator, channel) = Concurrent.broadcast[String]
users += ((name, (enumerator, channel)))
val iteratee = Iteratee.foreach[String](msg => {
//do something with the message
}).map{ _ => {
/**
* user closed his websocket client, so remove the user
* warning ... also remove the corresponding user name in groups
*/
users(name)._2.eofAndEnd()
users -= name
}}
sender ! (iteratee, enumerator)
}
}
case BroadcastGroup(msg, gName) => {
groups(gName) match {
case Some(gMates) => {
gMates.foreach { person => users(person)._2.push(msg)}
}
case None => Logger.info("empty group") //ignore sending message
}
}
case BroadcastAll(msg) => {
channel push msg
}
case AddGroup(gName: String) => {

case None => Set(userName)
}
}
}
}
回答2:
def filter(group_id: String) = Enumeratee.filter[JsValue]{ json: JsValue =>
group_id == (json\"group_id").as[String]
}
This filter has to be applied as,
def chat(group_id: String) = WebSocket.using[JsValue] { request =>
val in = Iteratee.foreach[JsValue]{ msg=>
public_channel.push(msg)
}
(in, public_enumerator &> filter(group_id))
}

From my experiments, Concurrent.broadcast does not send to everyone (some unfortunate naming perhaps?)
Here is what I used that works as expected.
package controllers
import play.api._
import play.api.mvc._
import play.api.libs.iteratee.Concurrent
import play.api.libs.iteratee.Iteratee
import play.api.libs.concurrent.Execution.Implicits.defaultContext
import scala.collection.mutable.{Set => MS}
import scala.concurrent._
object Application extends Controller {
val c:MS[(Int, Concurrent.Channel[String])] = MS() // (channelID, Channel))
def pushHello = c.foreach(_._2.push("hello")) // push to ALL channels
def index = WebSocket.async[String] { _ => future{
val (out,channel) = Concurrent.broadcast[String]
val channelID = scala.util.Random.nextInt
c.add((channelID, channel))
val in = Iteratee.foreach[String] {
_ match {
case any => channel.push("received:"+any) // push to current channel
}
}.map { _ => c.retain(x => x._1 != channelID) }
(in, out)
}
}
}

val (enumerator, channel) = Concurrent.broadcast[String]
use above thing globally
