To do this, I used generic-type-guard package which generates both an interface AND a valid type guard from code.
With this, we are 100% sure that the messages we receive are validated at runtime!
The client cannot pass us an object that is invalid! \o/
This commit adds a '/metrics' endpoint in the API that can be exploited by Prometheus.
This endpoint returns:
- the number of connected sockets
- the number of users per room
- common NodeJS and system metrics
WARNING: this endpoint is public right now and should be protected
Most of the time, sending a disconnect event to one of the players is enough (the player will close the connection
which will be shut for the other player).
However! In the rare case where the WebRTC connection is not yet established, if we close the connection on one of the player,
the other player will try connecting until a timeout happens (during this time, the circle with the name is displayed for nothing).
So now, we send disconnection event to every body (not only the people in the group, but also to the person leaving the group)
When a user connects or disconnects on the server, we log this (along the current server load).
This is only temporary, in order to assess the number of users a server can safely handle before crashing.
The URL signature becomes:
https://workadventu.re/_/[instance]/[path_to_map.json]
This allows us to create many instances of the same map (and therefore to create several different worlds for different people)
An exit on a map can target another "instance" by passing the "exitInstance" property.
Now, when a user moves, only his/her position is sent back to the other users. The position of all users is not sent each time.
The messages sent to the browser are now:
- the list of all users as a return to the join_room event (you can send responses to events in socket.io)
- a "join_room" event sent when a new user joins the room
- a "user_moved" event when a user moved
- a "user_left" event when a user left the room
The GameScene tracks all these events and reacts accordingly.
Also, I made a number of refactoring in the classes and removed the GameSceneInterface that was useless (it was implemented by the LogincScene for no reason at all)
