Garuda v0.2.5 Garuda.GameSocket

Defines specific game behaviours over Phoenix.Socket

GameSocket extends Phoenix.Socket with extra game behaviours.

Using GameSocket

In user_socket.ex, we can do

defmodule TictactoePhxWeb.UserSocket do
  use Garuda.GameSocket

  game_channel "tictactoe", TictactoePhxWeb.TictactoeChannel, TictactoePhx.TictactoeRoom

end

You might have noticed that instead of use Phoenix.Socket, we are using Garuda.GameSocket and instead of channel, we are using game_channel.
