Upcoming Socket.IO sneak peek
-
That being said, the server was only 20 lines of code and was also super easy to setup. I just used the example they have on socket.io
I should also mention that all networking behaviors are on developer tier, similar to the open URL behavior.
@Hamed I see a get array value behaviour... is this a networking behaviour or an actual behaviour? I'm currently working on implementing A* pathfinding into a project, but if arrays are in the next update and don't need developer, I think I'll wait for that... also, does socket.io mean we can have direct player to player connections where one player hosts a server?

As well as dictionaries (basically attributes but as a standalone behavior)
There's also bunch of other cool new behaviors related to arrays. We'll update the roadmap later today with more details.
@Hamed by networking, do you mean you need a server for it or is it just a category for behaviours?
-
Both. You need a server, and these are just a category (or subcategory) of networking behaviours.
These "networking" related behaviours (Socket, and HTTP requests) will connect to any server outside of hyperpad. This means you need a server, and code running on that server to send/receive and compute data.
We don't handle any of the server side stuff for you at all. That's on your end.

@Murtaza never mind, I misread your previous post, I thought you said arrays ARE a networking behaviour but you said they AREN'T lol

@Hamed can an array be saved to file?
@iTap-Development said in Upcoming Socket.IO sneak peek:

Yup :).
You can even put an array in an array. This next update should make hyperPad A LOT more powerful. -

@Murtaza can arrays be added dynamically like attributes?
@iTap-Development Values in arrays can be added dynamically. So think of the Array behaviour as something similar to a box container, you can pre-fill it with values if you want.
Then you would use the Modify Array behaviour to dynamically add items to the beginning, end, or a specific index of the array.
Another thing you can do with the Modify Array behaviour (and all the other array / dictionary behaviours) is type in an array as a JSON string. ie ["Cat", 2, 5 "Dog"] and use the modify array behaviour to add or remove values from the text dynamically. For example, the HTTP request behaviour can output values as JSON... you could input it into Get array and get the first index.

@Hamed so you can add an index, but can you make a completely new array dynamically. Like attributes being predefined or dynamic?
When will this update be out?! -
@iTap-Development you can only dynamically create it by typing out the json string. I feel like it will be more clear when you guys get your hands on it.
@Hamed ok...I think I get it.😂

That was great. That made my day :rofl:
Hahah I laughed a bit at that too.
