module Connection
# For every WebSocket connection the Action Cable server accepts, a Connection object will be instantiated. This instance becomes the parent
# of all of 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 Action 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
# User.find_by_identity(cookies.signed[:identity_id]) ||
# reject_unauthorized_connection
# end
# end
# end
#
# First, we declare that this connection can be identified by its current_user. This allows us to later be able to find all connections
# established for that current_user (and potentially disconnect them). You can declare as many
# identification indexes as you like. Declaring an identification means that an 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 the name of the current user to easily distinguish their messages in the log.
#
# Pretty simple, eh?
