ColdBox uses SocketBox to implement real-time WebSocket features by handling onConnect, onMessage, and onDisconnect events. It supports room-based broadcasting and per-socket messaging for live chat and dashboard applications.
SocketBox provides room-based broadcasting patterns in ColdBox to target specific groups of connected sockets. This approach enables secure, per-room messaging for real-time interactions without broadcasting to all connected clients.
SocketBox supports authentication on connect within ColdBox applications. You validate users directly inside the onConnect handler to establish secure WebSocket connections and enforce safe messaging patterns before the session proceeds.
Yes, implementing real-time WebSocket features requires a ColdBox environment and familiarity with the SocketBox API, specifically onConnect, onMessage, and onDisconnect handlers, alongside room broadcasting patterns for production use.
SocketBox provides client-side integration examples and production patterns for ColdBox applications. You connect frontend clients to backend WebSocket handlers to receive real-time messages and room broadcasts across the application.
