LiveCategories and child channel events
Does
LiveCategory receive events for child channels? I was looking at the code and don't believe it does, but I'd like to be sure in case I'm missing something 🙃
In any case I suppose I could implement my own and override the filter method, right?12 Replies

I do not know what that is, so I'm assuming I don't
I looked at these two classes
LiveChannel filters events by exact match of the channel itself
and LiveCategory doesn't override filter, just updateUnknown User•3y ago

no, I believe it should filter based on exact channel ID as well as parent ID
so it gets events both for itself and its children

not update
but filter the events
update would be too complicated imo
but it should be possible to process events for child channels in its flow (or through
on)Unknown User•3y ago

I know. What I am saying is that it could (and maybe should?) check the parentId in its
filter instead of just delegating it to the inherited method from LiveChannel.
It's rather useful to receive events for all channels under a category.
atm I'm rolling my own LiveCategory that patches that, but it would be nice to have that on upstreamUnknown User•3y ago
