I'm running a rails 6 app that is heavily using all sorts of hotwire goodness. I noticed that after a deploy my turbo streams stopped working.
In my view I've got
<%= turbo_stream_from "#{dom_id(@class)}_lesson" %>
Which in theory should start listening on an ActionCable channel, however, that is not happening. I can't see any message in my console that confirms that the action cable channel is connected and therefore any turbo broadcast I do is not being received by my frontend
broadcast_update_to "school_class_#{id}_lesson", target: "question_#{question.id}_lock",
partial: "lessons/lock_overlay"
The broadcast tries to do what its told as I can see from my server logs
[ActionCable] Broadcasting to school_class_15_lesson: "<turbo-stream action=\"update\" target=\"question_58_lock\"><template></template></turbo-stream>"
However, since the stream is not active the frontend is not receiving the update.
There's only one thing that may have broken this in the latest code changes. I wired sidekiq to handle my background jobs. This means that I added a new redis.rb initializer
$redis = Redis.new
url = ENV["REDISCLOUD_URL"]
if url
Sidekiq.configure_server do |config|
config.redis = { url: url }
end
Sidekiq.configure_client do |config|
config.redis = { url: url }
end
$redis = Redis.new(:url => url)
end
Which doesn't look like it would break anything. To add some context, this is my cable.yml file
development:
adapter: redis
url: redis://localhost:6379/1
test:
adapter: test
staging:
adapter: redis
url: <%= ENV.fetch("REDISCLOUD_URL") { "redis://localhost:6379/1" } %>
channel_prefix: cable_staging
ssl_params: {
verify_mode: <%= OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE %>
}
production:
adapter: redis
url: <%= ENV.fetch("REDISCLOUD_URL") { "redis://localhost:6379/1" } %>
channel_prefix: cable_production
ssl_params: {
verify_mode: <%= OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE %>
}
Can you think of anything that may have broken the existing setup that had been working for over a year?
