#each(&block) ⇒ Object

Method to allow Ably::Modules::ChannelsCollection to be Enumerable

def each(&block)
  return to_enum(:each) unless block_given?
  channels.values.each(&block)
end

#fetch(name) {|options| ... } ⇒ Channel

Return a Channel for the given name if it exists, else the block will be called. This method is intentionally similar to Hash#fetch providing a simple way to check if a channel exists or not without creating one

Parameters:

  • name (String) —

    The name of the channel

Yields:

  • (options) —

    (optional) if a missing_block is passed to this method and no channel exists matching the name, this block is called

Yield Parameters:

  • name (String) —

    of the missing channel

Returns:

  • (Channel)

  channels.fetch(name, &missing_block)
end

#get(name, channel_options = {}) ⇒ Channel Also known as: []

Return a Channel for the given name

Parameters:

  • name (String) —

    The name of the channel

  • channel_options (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    Channel options including the encryption options

Returns:

  • (Channel)

def initialize(client, channel_klass)
  @client         = client
  @channel_klass  = channel_klass
  @channels       = {}
end

#release(name) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

Destroy the Channel and releases the associated resources.

Releasing a Channel is not typically necessary as a channel consumes no resources other than the memory footprint of the Channel object. Explicitly release channels to free up resources if required

Parameters:

  • name (String) —

    The name of the channel
