The focus of this conversation is on implementing real-time nested channels for each user in an app, ensuring that these channels are private and require authentication.
Key points covered include:
Setting up real-time channels and ensuring each user has a dedicated private channel.
Connecting to these channels via Postman for testing, and addressing issues related to establishing connections and authenticating users.
Enabling anonymous connections temporarily to test nested channels.
Using a base channel with unique identifiers for each user to maintain private communication.
Adding authentication tokens to WebSocket connections in Postman by configuring headers properly.
Disabling anonymous connections and ensuring messages are only sent to authenticated users.
We covered practical implementation details such as testing nested channels with anonymous connections, dynamically generating private channels based on user IDs, and configuring Postman to authenticate WebSocket connections using tokens.
