sockets - laravel Echo does not listen to channel and events -

to broadcast event on channel used laravel echo , redis , socket-io.

this event :

    class chatnewmessage implements shouldbroadcast     {         use interactswithsockets, serializesmodels;          public $targetusers;         public $message;          public function __construct ($message)         {             $this->targetusers = $message->chat->users->pluck('user_id');             $this->message     = $message;         }          public function broadcaston ()         {             $userchannels = [];             foreach ($this->targetusers $id) {                 $userchannels[] = 'user-channel.' . $id;             }             return $userchannels;          }          public function broadcastas()         {             return 'newmessage';         }       } 

for socket.io server i'm using laravel-echo-server , below configuration:

{     "authhost": "http://api.pars-app.dev",     "authendpoint": "/broadcasting/auth",     "clients": [         {             "appid": "1924bf1d59b3759d",             "key": "eaf9e3c843493421f4be488fba11f49d"         }     ],     "database": "redis",     "databaseconfig": {         "redis": {},         "sqlite": {             "databasepath": "/database/laravel-echo-server.sqlite"         }     },     "devmode": true,     "host": "127.0.0.1",     "port": "3000",     "protocol": "http",     "socketio": {},     "sslcertpath": "",     "sslkeypath": "" }  

and echo structure in bootstrap.js file :

import echo "laravel-echo"; window.echo = new echo({     broadcaster: 'socket.io',     host: 'http://127.0.0.1:3000',     auth: {         headers: {             authorization: 'bearer eyj0exaioijkv1qilcjhbgcioijiuzi1nij9.eyjzdwiiojusimlzcyi6imh0dha6xc9cl2fwas5wyxjzlwfwcc5kzxzcl3yxxc9hdxroxc9zawdusw4ilcjpyxqioje0odkzmty1odgsimv4cci6mtq5mtkwndk4ocwibmjmijoxndg5mze2ntg4lcjqdgkioiiwnzdin2njyjnlode4mdu2njbimwnjytkzzji1ztzmmyj9.y_bvvnjiq8k3un1sqqubna1cclsrn7vnph3rxxs8jeq'         }     } }); echo.channel('user-channel.5').listen('newmessage', (e) => {     console.log(e); }); 

after running laravel-echo-server , call event, below logs show in console shows event broadcasts channel :

[2:26:05 pm] - xt_vsasrhirhhxtuaaae left channel: user-channel.5 (transport close) [2:26:06 pm] - fwfofmzqfri9_h11aaaf joined channel: user-channel.5 channel: user-channel.2 event: newmessage channel user-channel.2 channel: user-channel.1 event: newmessage channel user-channel.1 channel: user-channel.5 event: newmessage channel user-channel.5 

but echo not listen channels , occurred events.

what problem?

i found solution.

according this comment on laravel-echo-server github page,the event name needs prefixed dot. :

echo.channel('user-channel.5').listen('.newmessage', (e) => {     console.log(e); });
