Hello! I am having players join a queue and then redirecting them to a game page once the queue hits 4 players. However, the liveview page is not able to find the process.
The GameController prints that it was added to the registry, the QueueStarter prints that it can find the GameController, but the GameLive is not able to find it. I am not sure how to debug it further.
This is the relevant part of my GameLive liveview page
defmodule Website45sV3Web.GameLive do
use Website45sV3Web, :live_view
alias Website45sV3Web.Presence
alias Website45sV3.Game.GameController
alias Website45sV3.Game.Card
def mount(%{"id" => game_id}, _session, socket) do
username = socket.assigns.current_user.username
IO.puts("Looking for game with game_id: #{game_id}")
IO.inspect(game_id, label: "game_id")
case Registry.lookup(Website45sV3.Registry, game_id) do
[{game_pid, _}] ->
IO.puts("Found game with game_id: #{game_id}")
The IO.puts(“Found game with game_id: #{game_id}”) is not being printed here, and the other case is chosen instead.
A sample debugging output is:
From the game controller:
Registered a game with name: 684888C0EBB1 and players: asd, Imbo1, scotchTape, thirdPerson
pid: #PID<0.342.0>
So the game controller is being started successfully
From the QueueStarter (which starts the game controller)
Found process with game_name: 684888C0EBB1
So the game controller is being added to the registry
But the GameLive is not able to find the process even though the key is correct
[debug] MOUNT Website45sV3Web.GameLive
Parameters: %{"id" => "684888C0EBB1"}
Looking for game with game_id: 684888C0EBB1
game_id: "684888C0EBB1"
I would be grateful for any help with this.
