Handling WebSocket Communication
Explain how to handle WebSocket connections and messages in a Redux-Saga task using effects like `take`, `call`, and `put` for real-time data handling.
import { take, call, put } from 'redux-saga/effects';
function createWebSocketChannel() {
// This function creates an event channel from a given socket
// Connect your WebSocket here and return the channel
}
Define a utility function to create a WebSocket channel.
import { eventChannel } from 'redux-saga';
function createWebSocketChannel(socket) {
return eventChannel(emit => {
socket.onmessage = event => {
// When a message is received, emit an action
emit({ type: 'WEBSOCKET_MESSAGE_RECEIVED', payload: JSON.parse(event.data) });
};
// Return the unsubscribe method
return () => {
socket.close();
};
});
}
Implements the createWebSocketChannel function using 'eventChannel' to handle incoming WebSocket messages.
import { call, put, take } from 'redux-saga/effects';
function* handleWebSocketConnection(socketUrl) {
const socket = new WebSocket(socketUrl);
const channel = yield call(createWebSocketChannel, socket);
while (true) {
const action = yield take(channel);
// Dispatch action received from WebSocket to the store
yield put(action);
}
}
WebSocket connection saga that listens to messages from the WebSocket channel and dispatches them to the Redux store.
