I am having trouble with Laravel Echo to listener to Pusher channels. I am not able to get any response in my browser (no console log).
In my bootstrap.js I got.
import Echo from "laravel-echo"
window.Echo = new Echo({
broadcaster: 'pusher',
key: 'myPusherAppKey',
cluster: 'mt1', //My app is US-EAST
encrypted: true
});
I use my browser console and type:
Echo.channel('my-channel')
.listen('my-event', (e) => {
console.log(e);
});
I can see from the Pusher Debug Console that
CONNECTION My app
SUBSCRIBED My-channel
OCCUPIED My-channel
I then use the Pusher Debug Console to send the default event:
Channel: my-channel
Event: my-event
Data: {
"name": "John",
"message": "Hello"
}
However, I do not get any output in my browser console.
If I further type in my browser console:
Echo.leave('my-channel');
I can see from Pusher Debug Console
UNSUBSCRIBED my-channel
VACATED my-channel
How can I get Laravel Echo to listen to Pusher events?
It was a Namespace issue. Laravel documentation explains it.
Echo will automatically assume the events are located in the App\Events namespace
Therefore, the event name must be changed in the Pusher Debug Console as such:
Event: App\Events\my-event

I have spend many hours to solve this issue of mine, reading the doc multiple times, googling here and there: SO, Laracast, Larachat, etc, but still couldn't get Laravel Echo to subscribe to Pusher presence channel, and it doesn't show any error in console tab
Public and Private channel are working fine and smooth, users can subscribe, users can listen / trigger event(s)
Note: before creation of this post, I have search questions related to my current issue, none of them have answer

Q: Why Laravel Echo not subscribing to Pusher presence channel? and even in Pusher, it doesn't show channel name: presence-whatever, only disconnected (after I refreshed the page) and then connected like nothing happen
Thanks in advance
1. Make sure to set the broadcast driver to .env after that do php artisan config:clear
BROADCAST_DRIVER=pusher
2. Ferify your auth.php. I have like this
3. Check your broadcasting.php this is my dev config
4. Check CORS settings I installed fruitcake/laravel-cors and this is my cors.php config
Maybe for you supports_credentials need to be true
5. Check your channels.php. I have
Make sure to set the broadcast driver to env after that do php artisan config:clear
Use window.Echo.channel('whatever') to join the channel.
Had the exact same issue and was stuck for hours.
I changed 'useTLS' to FALSE in config/broadcasting.php and magically got it working.
currently i am working on a mobile application using react native, and as back end i am using Laravel.
As a channels client library at the client side i am using Pusher
This is how my channel route looks like in the back end
Broadcast::channel('conversation.{message_id}', function ($user,$id) {
return true;
});
I can broadcast successfully, but at pusher debug console i've noticed that a prefix (private-) added to the route.
Here is how i listen to event
const pusher = new Pusher('XXXX', {
cluster: 'eu',
authEndpoint: 'http:backend.test/api/broadcasting/auth',
auth: {
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer `+token,
Accept: 'application/json',
},
},
});
const channel = pusher.subscribe('private-conversation.7');
channel.bind('App\\Events\\MessageSent', function (data) {
console.log("event")
console.log(data);
});
As you can see in my code i subscribe to "private-conversation.7", pusher debug console shows that the client is subscribed to channel successfully, but the issue is that the client didn't listen to events, when i create a custom event in pusher and set "conversation.7" as a channel name (i removed private- prefix) the event triggered with success.
Any suggestions please?
That is a convention used to separate private, public and presence channel.
When you subscribe a channel with private- prefix, it will require the auth process.
Laravel will automatically add private- prefix to channel name when broadcast.
/**
* Get the channels the event should broadcast on.
*
* #return \Illuminate\Broadcasting\PrivateChannel
*/
public function broadcastOn()
{
return new PrivateChannel('orders.'.$this->order->id);
}
Here are reference docs:
https://pusher.com/docs/channels/using_channels/private-channels
Echo Version: 1.8.0
Laravel Version: 7.0
PHP Version: 7.2.
NPM Version: 6.12.1
Node Version: 12.13.1
Description: I'm trying to send notifications to users,
My pusher connection is good because it sends on public channels
And also, i get this message on my console
[2020-07-24 21:08:09][355] Processed: Illuminate\Notifications\Events\BroadcastNotificationCreated
and on pusher i also see that the message was sent.
I also don't get any errors on my browser console as all the websocket connections are working well.
But i still dont get any messages.
I tried
Echo.private('App.User.' +userId)
.notification((notification) => {
console.log(notification);
});
I also tried
Echo.private('App.User.' + userId)
.listen('.Illuminate\\Notifications\\Events\\BroadcastNotificationCreated', (e) => {
console.log('Event Notification received ', e)
});
Now I turned on Pusher error logging and i got
app.js:42600 Pusher : : ["JSON returned from auth endpoint was invalid, yet status code was 200. Data was: <!DOCTYPE html>\r\n<html lang=\"en\">\r\n
I also followed many tutorials and the docs
All to no avail.
Steps To Reproduce:
Create a notification and declare both the toArray method and toBroadcast methods but echo fails to catch messages from pusher
I finally solved this issue myself
Steps
In my bootstrap.js file
window.Echo = new Echo({
broadcaster: "pusher",
key: "my key",
cluster: "eu",
encrypted: true,
authEndpoint: "api/broadcasting/auth",
auth: {
headers: {
Authorization: "Bearer " + localStorage.getItem("token"),
},
},
});
Then in my routes/api.php file,
Route::middleware('auth:api')->post('broadcasting/auth', function (Request $request) {
$pusher = new Pusher\Pusher(
$app_key,
$app_secret,
$app_id
);
return $pusher->socket_auth($request->request->get('private-my-channel'),($request->request->get('socket_id'));
});
There is more info on this in the documentation,
I hope it helps someone someday
I am learning pusher to use it with Laravel, I am trying to subscribe to private channel using Laravel-echo as follow:
import Echo from 'laravel-echo';
window.Pusher = require('pusher-js');
window.Echo = new Echo({
Pusher.logToConsole = true; //update: added this
broadcaster: 'pusher',
key: process.env.MIX_PUSHER_APP_KEY,
cluster: process.env.MIX_PUSHER_APP_CLUSTER,
encrypted: true
});
var channel = window.Echo.private('roomr');
and per Laravel documentations I have to set authorization in channel.php file so in I wrote in it:
Broadcast::channel('roomr', function ($user) {
logger('hit authorize roomr');
return true;
});
please note that I used logger('hit authorize roomr'); to know if my function is being called, but, when I check the log file it is empty which means that this function is not being called.
using developer tools in google chrome I see there is a post request sent to http://127.0.0.1:8000/broadcasting/auth which return response 200, so, I do not think the authentication is the problem.
Update:
after I added Pusher.logToConsole = true; to my javascript now in chrome console I get:
Pusher : : ["JSON returned from auth endpoint was invalid, yet status
code was 200. Data was: "]
what else I can do? please help me to solve this probem
The problem was in the .env file and I solved it by setting BROADCAST_DRIVER=pusher
I'm making a Client - Server application and I need to send web push notifications.
I have a Laravel api as a backend with laravel echo server with the broadcaster socket.io and a Vue JS ans a Frontend app.
When I try to send the notification from laravel-echo I can see the socket server log. I'm connecting through socket.io and I'm not using pusher.
I have the correct connection because I can see my log, even I can see I'm in because in the console I see my log.
import Echo from "laravel-echo"
window.echo = new Echo({
broadcaster : 'socket.io',
host : url_server+"6001"
});
And I have this code in my Vue component:
window.echo.private("App.Entities.User.2")
.notification(notification => {
console.log("notification demo", notification)
});
And this is my log notification from laravel server:
[2017-08-09 16:57:02] local.INFO: Broadcasting
[Illuminate\Notifications\Events\BroadcastNotificationCreated] on channels
[private-App.Entities.User.2] with payload:
{
"title": "Hello from Laravel!",
"body": "Thank you for using our application.",
"action_url": "https:\/\/laravel.com",
"created": "2017-08-09T16:57:02-05:00",
"id": "b3e037ce-9f4e-43d0-a847-e8623f56412d",
"type": "App\\Notifications\\ReminderSeller",
"socket": null
}
i think its a config issue, make sure that the config is correct in config/broadcasting.php
'default' => env('BROADCAST_DRIVER', 'redis'),
or is set in .env file BROADCAST_DRIVER=redis
