Quick Start

from realtime.connection import Socket

def callback1(payload):
    print("Callback 1: ", payload)

def callback2(payload):
    print("Callback 2: ", payload)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    URL = "ws://localhost:4000/socket/websocket"
    s = Socket(URL)
    s.connect()

    channel_1 = s.set_channel("realtime:public:todos")
    channel_1.join().on("UPDATE", callback1)

    channel_2 = s.set_channel("realtime:public:users")
    channel_2.join().on("*", callback2)

    s.listen()

Sample usage with Supabase

Here's how you could connect to your realtime endpoint using Supabase endpoint. Correct as of 5th June 2021. Please replace SUPABASE_ID and API_KEY with your own SUPABASE_ID and API_KEY. The variables shown below are fake and they will not work if you try to run the snippet.

from realtime.connection import Socket

SUPABASE_ID = "dlzlllxhaakqdmaapvji"
API_KEY = "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJyb2xlIjoiYW5vbiIsImlhdCI6MT"


def callback1(payload):
    print("Callback 1: ", payload)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    URL = f"wss://{SUPABASE_ID}.supabase.co/realtime/v1/websocket?apikey={API_KEY}&vsn=1.0.0"
    s = Socket(URL)
    s.connect()

    channel_1 = s.set_channel("realtime:*")
    channel_1.join().on("UPDATE", callback1)
    s.listen()

Then, go to the Supabase interface and toggle a row in a table. You should see a corresponding payload show up in your console/terminal.
