I have no idea why this won't work; here's my code:
io.on('connection', function(socket) {
socket.on('join', function(data) {
socket.join(data.email); // We are using room of socket io
User.findById(bid.highestBidder, (err, theUser) => {
io.sockets.in(theUser.email).emit('outbid', {msg: 'You have been outbid!'});
});
});
});
Now, here's the code on the client-side javascript:
<script src="/socket.io/socket.io.js"></script>
<script>
var socket = io();
var userEmail = $("#userEmail").val();
socket.emit('join', {
email: userEmail
});
socket.on("outbid", function(data) {
console.log(data);
});
</script>
If you need me to paste more code, let me know and I will.
Basically, when the socket function gets executed, it's sending it to every browser instead of just the room with the "email."
