Step 1. Add the JitPack repository to your build file

Add it in your root settings.gradle at the end of repositories:

	dependencyResolutionManagement {
		repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
		repositories {
			mavenCentral()
			maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
		}
	}

Add it in your settings.gradle.kts at the end of repositories:

	dependencyResolutionManagement {
		repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
		repositories {
			mavenCentral()
			maven { url = uri("https://jitpack.io") }
		}
	}

Add to pom.xml

	<repositories>
		<repository>
		    <id>jitpack.io</id>
		    <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
		</repository>
	</repositories>

Add it in your build.sbt at the end of resolvers:

 
    resolvers += "jitpack" at "https://jitpack.io"
        
    

Add it in your project.clj at the end of repositories:

 
    :repositories [["jitpack" "https://jitpack.io"]]
        
    

Step 2. Add the dependency

	dependencies {
		implementation 'com.github.mondoktamas:JavaPhoenixChannels:0.2.0'
	}
	dependencies {
		implementation("com.github.mondoktamas:JavaPhoenixChannels:0.2.0")
	}
	<dependency>
	    <groupId>com.github.mondoktamas</groupId>
	    <artifactId>JavaPhoenixChannels</artifactId>
	    <version>0.2.0</version>
	</dependency>

                            
    libraryDependencies += "com.github.mondoktamas" % "JavaPhoenixChannels" % "0.2.0"
        
        

                            
    :dependencies [[com.github.mondoktamas/JavaPhoenixChannels "0.2.0"]]

Phoenix Channel Client for Java and Android

JavaPhoenixChannels is a Java and Android client library for the Channels API in the Phoenix Framework. Its primary purpose is to ease development of real time messaging apps for Android using an Elixir/Phoenix backend. For more about the Elixir language and the massively scalable and reliable systems you can build with Phoenix, see http://elixir-lang.org and http://www.phoenixframework.org.

Including the Library

  • Add http://dl.bintray.com/eoinsha/java-phoenix-channels as a Maven repository
  • Add JavaPhoenixChannels as an app dependency:
dependencies {
  ...
  compile('com.github.eoinsha:JavaPhoenixChannels:0.2') {
      exclude module: 'groovy-all'
  }
  • For Maven or Gradle-specific instructions detailing how this is done, see the "SET ME UP" section on https://bintray.com/javaphoenixchannels/java-phoenix-channels/JavaPhoenixChannels and choose "Resolving artifacts..."

Examples

Example Android App

For a full sample Android chat app, check out the repository at https://github.com/eoinsha/PhoenixChatAndroid

The quick examples below are used with the Phoenix Chat Example

Example using Groovy

import org.phoenixframework.channels.*
def socket = new Socket('ws://localhost:4000/socket/websocket')
socket.connect()
def chan = socket.chan()
chan.join("rooms:lobby", null)
    .receive("ignore", { -> println "IGNORE"})
    .receive("ok", { envelope -> println "JOINED with $envelope" })
chan.on('new:msg', { -> println "NEW MESSAGE: $envelope"})

Example using Java

import org.phoenixframework.channels.*;

Socket socket;
Channel channel;

socket = new Socket("ws://localhost:4000/socket/websocket");
socket.connect();

channel = socket.chan("rooms:lobby", null);

channel.join()
.receive("ignore", new IMessageCallback() {
    @Override
    public void onMessage(Envelope envelope) {
        System.out.println("IGNORE");
    }
})
.receive("ok", new IMessageCallback() {
    @Override
    public void onMessage(Envelope envelope) {
        System.out.println("JOINED with " + envelope.toString());
    }
});

channel.on("new:msg", new IMessageCallback() {
    @Override
    public void onMessage(Envelope envelope) {
        System.out.println("NEW MESSAGE: " + envelope.toString());
    }
});

channel.on(ChannelEvent.CLOSE.getPhxEvent(), new IMessageCallback() {
    @Override
    public void onMessage(Envelope envelope) {
        System.out.println("CLOSED: " + envelope.toString());
    }
});

channel.on(ChannelEvent.ERROR.getPhxEvent(), new IMessageCallback() {
    @Override
    public void onMessage(Envelope envelope) {
        System.out.println("ERROR: " + envelope.toString());
    }
});

//Sending a message. This library uses Jackson for JSON serialization
ObjectNode node = new ObjectNode(JsonNodeFactory.instance)
        .put("user", "my_username")
        .put("body", message);

channel.push("new:msg", node);
