PubNub is a Massively Scalable Real-time Service for Web and Mobile Games. This is a cloud-based service for broadcasting Real-time messages to millions of web and mobile clients simultaneously.
API Usage summary follows. But checkout the real working examples in examples/mobile
And be sure to checkout how easy it is to run the demo chat application with this quick video demo: https://vimeo.com/57166260
Ti.include('pubnub.js');
var pubnub = PUBNUB({
publish_key : 'demo',
subscribe_key : 'demo',
ssl : false,
native_tcp_socket : false,
origin : 'pubsub.pubnub.com'
});If you run into firewall issues on some iPhone deployments, try to set native_tcp_socket to true.
When native_tcp_socket is set to false ( by default it is false ), you might see network activity indicator spinning always. You can stop the indicator spinning by setting Ti.App.disableNetworkActivityIndicator = true;
For a given channel, subscribe to the channel (subscribe), or subscribe to the channel's join/leave events (presence)
pubnub.subscribe({
channel : "hello_world",
callback : function(message) { Ti.API.log(message) }
})Send messages to a channel.
pubnub.publish({
channel : "hello_world",
message : "Hi."
})Message History ( history() is deprecated, please migrate your apps to use detailedHistory instead. )
Get the message history for a channel.
var paramobj = {};
paramobj['channel'] = channel.value;
paramobj['callback'] = function(message) {
append_data( JSON.stringify(message));
}
paramobj.error = function() {
append_data("Lost connection ... ","#f00");
}
if (start.value != "Start Timestamp" && start.value != "")
paramobj['start'] = start.value;
if (end.value != "End Timestamp" && end.value != "")
paramobj['end'] = end.value;
if (count.value != "Count" && count.value != "")
paramobj['count'] = count.value;
else
paramobj['count'] = 100;
pubnub.detailedHistory(paramobj);Get real time occupancy stats for a channel. Used complimentarily with Presence
pubnub.here_now({
channel : channel.value,
connect : function() {
append_data("Receiving Here Now data ...");
},
callback : function(message) {
append_data( JSON.stringify(message) );
},
error : function() {
append_data( "Lost Connection...", "#f00" );
}
