This repository contains a simple demo application that integrates AdonisJS with Socket.IO, featuring user authentication. The project demonstrates how to set up a basic one-to-one chat application where users can log in, join chat rooms, and exchange messages in real-time.

Features

• Socket.io singleton server
• Integration with @adonisjs/auth
• User authentication (register, login)
• Groups (create and delete)
• Group members (list, join, leave, remove)
• Group messages (list, send)
• Private messages (list, send)
• Realtime notifications
• Inertia+React frontend

WIP

How to

Access the socket.io server:

import Ws from '#services/socket'

const io = Ws.io // singleton instance

Access the current user in the socket context

Ws.io.on('connection', async (socket) => {
  const user = socket.context.auth.getUserOrFail()
  ...
})
