Yes, the token comes from the connect function i posted with the IO.puts and IO.inspects above. I sign the token with the meta tag and verify it in the connect function as per the docs.

Ok, I was refering to your repo code. But if You did the change, I don’t see why it does not hit your connect function.

That is so different 
Add something like that to your socket.
def connect(params, _socket), do: IO.inspect params
and try to see the params You get.
I still believe token is not passed right…

I think I may need to add params to the socket declaration in app.js. The Presence guide used
let socket = new Socket("/socket", {
params: { user_id: window.location.search.split("=")[1] }
})
But since I’m not using a user_id in the params I need it to read the token from the channel_token in the meta tag. So, I think it would be params: {token: "channel_token"}
When I inspect the params in the connect function i get [error] GofishWeb.PlayerSocket.connect/2 returned invalid value %{"vsn" => "2.0.0"}. Expected {:ok, socket} or :error

The error is because my code is incomplete… It should be
def connect(params, socket) do
IO.inspect params
{:ok, socket}
end
BTW It seems You receive %{“vsn” => “2.0.0”} as parameters, but You should receive %{“token” => TOKEN_HERE}

Given that You extract player_id from the token… It will not work without it. Then the channel will be happy.

@kokolegorille If I put
let socket = new Socket("/socket", { params: { token: "channel_token" } });
Then when I connect and inspect token i will get “channel_token”, which is the name in the meta tag. What else am I doing wrong here?

Client side, I am doing
socket = new Socket('/socket', {
params: { token: AuthService.loadToken() },
logger: (kind, msg, data) => { console.log(`${kind}: ${msg}`, data); },
});
I am storing the token into local storage.
To me, You just send a string, but not the value of the token.
params: { token: “channel_token” }
You need to store the token in the page, and retrieve it’s value. Sorry I don’t use your method for storing token in the page.
