I want to know why the message when using useTextStream. The first message is not available when deployed, but working perfectly when working on local
t
Hey there! I know it can be frustrating when the first message using
useTextStream
doesn’t show up after deployment but works just fine locally. This can happen for a few reasons, so let’s walk through some possibilities together: • Connection State Timing: Sometimes the connection isn’t fully set up before the first message is sent, so it might get missed. Double-check that your connection is ready before sending anything. • Text Stream Initialization: If
setupTextStream
takes a bit longer to initialize in the deployed environment, that could cause the first message to slip through the cracks. • Network Conditions: Deployment environments can have different network stability compared to your local setup, which might lead to missed messages. Making sure the connection is steady can help. • Handler Registration: It’s worth verifying that the text stream handler is properly registered on both client and server before messages start flowing. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try: 1. Use the
useConnectionState
hook to keep an eye on your connection status and make sure it’s fully established before sending that first message. 2. Confirm that
setupTextStream
is called and initialized correctly, and add some error handling and logging to catch any hiccups. 3. Add logging for connection state changes and text stream events — this can really help you see where the message might be getting lost. 4. Check for any network issues in your deployed environment, and if that first message is super important, consider adding retries just in case. If you’re still stuck after trying these, feel free to share more about your deployment setup along with any logs or error messages. I’m here to help you figure this out!

How to confirm whether setuptextstream is set up or not
t
Let’s make sure your
setupTextStream
is set up just right by going through these simple steps: 1. Look Out for Initialization Errors: Double-check that the
setupTextStream
function runs smoothly without any errors. If something pops up, it means there’s a hiccup in the setup. 2. Confirm the Handler is Registered: Make sure the text stream handler is properly registered for your chosen topic. You can do this by seeing if the function returns an observable without any issues. 3. Watch the Observable: Try subscribing to the observable that
setupTextStream
gives you. If it starts sending data, that’s a great sign your text streams are coming through and being handled correctly. 4. Test with a Known Text Stream: Send a test text stream to the topic you’re watching. If the observable picks it up and emits the data you expect, you’re all set! 5. Check Your Connection: Make sure your room is connected and there aren’t any network issues stopping those text streams from arriving. Here’s a quick example to help you check everything:
Copy code
const { textStreams } = useTextStream('my-topic');
if (textStreams.length > 0) {
  console.log('Text streams are being received successfully.');
} else {
  console.log('No text streams received. Check the setup.');
}
Following these steps should give you a clear idea if your
setupTextStream
is up and running just like it should.
