That's what I did after reading the documentation here's how my channels
files look like
# settings.py
# ...
ASGI_APPLICATION = 'djangoChannels.routing.application'
# ...
# routing.py
from django.conf.urls import url
from channels.routing import ProtocolTypeRouter, URLRouter
from channels.auth import AuthMiddlewareStack
from .consumers import ChatConsumer
application = ProtocolTypeRouter({
# Empty for now (http->django views is added by default)
'websocket': AuthMiddlewareStack(
URLRouter([
url('^sessions/$', ChatConsumer)
])
)
})
# consumers.py
from asgiref.sync import AsyncToSync
from channels.generic.websocket import WebsocketConsumer
class ChatConsumer(WebsocketConsumer):
def connect(self):
AsyncToSync(self.channel_layer.group_add)("chat", self.channel_name)
def disconnect(self):
AsyncToSync(self.channel_layer.group_discard)("chat", self
.channel_name)
