This repository provides a simple implementation of user authentication for Liveblocks using JavaScript. Liveblocks is a platform that enables real-time collaborative experiences in web applications. This example demonstrates how to authenticate users and manage access to rooms.
- Generate unique user IDs for session management.
- Manage user access to different rooms based on organization and group.
- Simple integration with Liveblocks for real-time collaboration.
- Example frontend and backend implementation.
Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:
- Node.js installed on your machine (version 14 or later).
- A Liveblocks account and a valid secret key.
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/BaseMax/liveblocks-javascript-authentication.git
cd liveblocks-javascript-authenticationInstall the dependencies:
npm install
Start the backend server:
node auth.js
Run npm run dev and open the URL in the browser to see the frontend in action.
Click the "Connect to Room" button in the frontend to initiate a connection to the Liveblocks room.
The backend will handle the authentication process and return the appropriate response to the frontend.
The frontend will update the status of connected users in real-time.
