Live provider for refine combined with strapiV4

Currently, i'm using strapiV4 as backend for my refine react app. I know that strapiV4 not support live provider for refine. So i have already set up socket for strapi. But i do not sure that whether there is any code example for set up realtime manually on refine with live provider?

Hi @nghiatieu. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- Yes, refine allows you to add real-time support to your application using the liveProvider prop. You can use any real-time library or tool that you want, including your own socket setup for Strapi. Here is an example of how a liveProvider should be structured:

const liveProvider = {  
 subscribe: ({ channel, params: { ids }, types, callback }) => any,  
 unsubscribe: (subscription) => void,  
 publish?: (event) => void,  
};

const liveProvider = {  
 subscribe: ({ channel, params: { ids }, types, callback }) => any,  
 unsubscribe: (subscription) => void,  
 publish?: (event) => void,  
};

In this structure: - subscribe is a method that Refine data hooks use to subscribe. It returns a subscription object that can be used to unsubscribe. - unsubscribe is a method used to unsubscribe from the subscription. - publish is an optional method used to publish an event to the channel on the client side. If you send an event after the relevant operations on the server, Refine will invalidate the related queries. If the liveMode is manual, queries of related resources are not invalidated in real-time; instead onLiveEvent is run with the event as new events from the subscription arrive. You can find more detailed information in the Live Provider documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/core/providers/live-provider/). Please note that you need to adapt this structure to your own socket setup for Strapi. For more examples of how to use liveProvider, you can check out the Ably example (https://refine.dev/docs/examples/live-provider/ably) in the refine documentation.

@kapa.ai How can adapt this structure with socket on Strapi? I can not see any particular document

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I'm sorry, but the provided extracts do not contain specific examples or instructions on how to adapt the liveProvider structure with a socket setup on Strapi. However, the general idea would be to use the subscribe and unsubscribe methods to handle the connection and disconnection of your socket, respectively. The publish method would be used to send messages through the socket. Here's a very basic example of how you might structure it:

const liveProvider = {
  subscribe: ({ channel }) => {
    // Connect to your socket here using the channel
    // Return the subscription object
  },
  unsubscribe: (subscription) => {
    // Disconnect from your socket here using the subscription object
  },
  publish: (event) => {
    // Send a message through your socket here using the event
  },
};

const liveProvider = {
  subscribe: ({ channel }) => {
    // Connect to your socket here using the channel
    // Return the subscription object
  },
  unsubscribe: (subscription) => {
    // Disconnect from your socket here using the subscription object
  },
  publish: (event) => {
    // Send a message through your socket here using the event
  },
};

Please note that this is a very simplified example and you would need to replace the comments with your actual socket connection, disconnection, and message sending logic. For more detailed information on how to use the liveProvider, you can refer to the Refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/core/providers/live-provider). For information on how to work with sockets in Strapi, you might find the Strapi documentation (https://strapi.io/documentation/developer-docs/latest/setup-deployment-guides/configurations.html#server) helpful. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
