Yes and no, SocketIO can be used everywhere who need to send data between server and client instantly. :sweat_smile: Chat is just a example scenario here.

From Socket.IO docs:

Socket.IO is a library that enables real-time, bidirectional and event-based communication between the browser and the server.
(“browser” means client here.)

However it would be nice to see a full implemented SocketIO component to the App Inventor. Because looks like this extension won’t work with other SocketIO projects which is not related with chat.

Another great extension!

10 usd is too much for india… i need this but cost is too high

#8

If you want something then you also have to give something…
There are many things to try for free,and these paid things are made for people who want to invest money or really can afford money to try things

What is money?Just a way of exchanging hardwork.

There is really one big suggestion from me, either collect money by hardwork to get something or just try things which are available for free if you can’t afford that paid thing​:wink:

pls elaborate, don’t understand what you mean

#16

sorry google translate is wrong :grinning:

Let’s say we have socket io extension
Do we need to pay money for socket io, that is to be a subscription to the site or not, there is no such section on the site

Nothing is done on the site, there are references or something.

I would appreciate if you explain it well I think to buy the add-on
But I’m not thinking if I can use it. Explain well, we’ll see.

thank you

this extension needs a backend server, which I have set up one on heroku, you can use it free. or you can set up on your own server. the server need to support nodejs.
this extension is only for real time communication, no function for save the communicate history. you will need to do it by yourself.

So, with this extension, can I easily make a 1v1 messaging or group messaging application or even a 1v1 quiz application in real time or an online game. How do I connect my heruko account to check the database myself?

thank you

#19

yes, first join a room, send message to the room, all members in the room will get the message real time.
and you can set the capacity of the room also.

data base? no database needed.

For how to deploy nodejs app on heroku, pls Google.

Well, how to create the server. I don’t want to use someone else’s server. Let’s say the following users are registered. Can I see these messages from a database?
