module ActionCable
  module Connection
    # For every WebSocket the cable server is accepting, a Connection object will be instantiated. This instance becomes the parent
    # of all the channel subscriptions that are created from there on. Incoming messages are then routed to these channel subscriptions
    # based on an identifier sent by the cable consumer. The Connection itself does not deal with any specific application logic beyond
    # authentication and authorization.
    #
    # Here's a basic example:
    #
    #   module ApplicationCable
    #     class Connection < ActionCable::Connection::Base
    #       identified_by :current_user
    #
    #       def connect
    #         self.current_user = find_verified_user
    #         logger.add_tags current_user.name
    #       end
    #
    #       def disconnect
    #         # Any cleanup work needed when the cable connection is cut.
    #       end
    #
    #       protected
    #         def find_verified_user
    #           if current_user = User.find_by_identity cookies.signed[:identity_id]
    #             current_user
    #           else
    #             reject_unauthorized_connection
    #           end
    #         end
    #     end
    #   end
    #
    # First, we declare that this connection can be identified by its current_user. This allows us later to be able to find all connections
    # established for that current_user (and potentially disconnect them if the user was removed from an account). You can declare as many
    # identification indexes as you like. Declaring an identification means that a attr_accessor is automatically set for that key.
    #
    # Second, we rely on the fact that the WebSocket connection is established with the cookies from the domain being sent along. This makes
    # it easy to use signed cookies that were set when logging in via a web interface to authorize the WebSocket connection.
    #
    # Finally, we add a tag to the connection-specific logger with name of the current user to easily distinguish their messages in the log.
    #
    # Pretty simple, eh?
