.unsubscribe()

Unsubscribe the requesting client socket from one or more database records.

Something.unsubscribe(req, ids);

Usage

Argument Type Details
1 req The incoming socket request (req) containing the socket to unsubscribe.
2 ids An array of record ids (primary key values).

Example

User.find({name: 'Lenny'}).exec(function(err, lennies) {
  if (err) return res.serverError(err);
  if (req.isSocket) {
    User.unsubscribe( req, _.pluck(lennies, 'id') );
  }
  return res.ok();
});

Notes

  • Be sure and check req.isSocket === true before passing in req to refer to the requesting socket. The provided req must be from a socket request, not just any old HTTP request.
  • unsubscribe will only work when the request is made over a socket connection (e.g. using io.socket.get()), not over HTTP (e.g. using jQuery.get()).
