# ChannelHandler

Helpers to organize and route messages in complex Phoenix channels.

## Installation

Add the following to your mix.exs dependencies:

```elixir
{:channel_handler, "~> 1.0"}
```

## Usage

After defining a channel with vanilla Phoenix's `channel`:

```elixir
channel "post:*", MyAppWeb.PostChannel
```

Define your channel handler, and add `use ChannelHandler.Router` in addition to the
`use MyAppWeb, :channel`:

```elixir
defmodule MyAppWeb.PostChannel do
  use MyAppWeb, :channel
  use ChannelHandler.Router
end
```

Now you can start defining matchers and event handlers:

```elixir
defmodule MyAppWeb.PostChannel do
  use MyAppWeb, :channel
  use ChannelHandler.Router

join fn _topic, _payload, socket ->
    {:ok, socket}
  end

plug MyAppWeb.ChannelPlugs.EnsureAuthenticated

event "comments:create", MyAppWeb.PostCommentsHandler, :create

delegate "comments:", MyAppWeb.PostCommentsHandler

handle "post:create", fn payload, _bindings, socket ->
    case MyApp.Posts.create(payload) do
      {:ok, post} ->
        {:reply, {:ok, post}, socket}

{:error, reason} ->
        {:reply, {:error, reason}, socket}
    end
  end

scope "secret:" do
    plug &check_permission/4, :do_secret_stuff

# You can use splat patterns to match anything with *
    event "foo:*", SuperSecretHandler, :foo

# Not specifying a prefix matches everything
    delegate SuperSecretHandler
  end

def check_permission(socket, _payload, _bindings, permission) do
    if MyApp.Authorization.can?(socket.assigns.current_user, permission) do
      # using :cont resumes the event handling
      {:cont, socket, payload, bindings}
    else
      # returning :reply or :noreply halts the event handling
      {:reply, {:error, "Unauthorized"}, socket}
    end
  end
end

defmodule MyAppWeb.PostCommentsHandler do
  use ChannelHandler.Handler

# Add a plug only for the create action
  plug MyAppWeb.ChannelPlugs.CheckPermission, :comment_posts when action in [:create]
  
  def handle_in(event, payload, bindings, socket) do
    # Do something with the delegated event
  end

def create(payload, bindings, socket) do
    # Create a comment
  end
end
```
