Cloud Code

Hi @kinco-h - I assume (hope) you got the info you needed from our support folks?

Hint - you access chat support by clicking on the "Ask Support" button in the top right-hand corner of the Design Portal...

Cool. Thanks for sharing the solution here @devsleeper !

Ciao @Paul-Winterhalder ,

yes there is not much else to add, except perhaps the fact that the CompleteMatch is sent at the end of the game. Instead, AbandonMatch is sent if one of the players abandons the game prematurely.

Thanks for the support! 🙂

There is a global list of reason codes here - https://docs.braincloudservers.com/api/appendix/reasonCodes

A good way to handle failure besides retrying in code, is to schedule another script to run 1 minute later that will basically repeat the same action.

Hi Alessio,

I have a suggestion.

Why not create a global chat channel called "lobbyListeners".

Then - when a user is viewing the lobbies - have them connect to and listen to the lobbyListeners channel.

Then you don't need to maintain a global entity at all. Whenever you create a lobby or delete it - send an event to lobbyListeners - and it will automatically send it to everyone who has registered for the channel.

Would that work? (or is there a part of your use case that I am missing?)

Paul.

@JasonL Thanks, I ended up with this cloudCode:

isForceCreate = String(data.callingMessage.forceCreate) == "true"; isNewUser = String(data.message.newUser) == "true"; var response = {}; response.status = 200; response.data = data.message; if (isForceCreate && isNewUser) { var min = 10000000, max = 999999999 prefix = ["player", "user", "member"] const num = Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min; const pre = prefix[Math.floor(Math.random() * prefix.length)]; var defaultPlayerName = pre + String(num); var playerStateProxy = bridge.getPlayerStateServiceProxy(); // We are changing the player name on the server. playerStateProxy.updatePlayerName(defaultPlayerName); // And in this API Call's return data. response.data.playerName = pre + String(num); } response; //return the object

This works just the way I need

Hey, there must be some syntax error in your script, would you be able to provide your script code here?

Delete call update and everything is working now. Thanks!

I posted this almost 13 days ago with zero answers, so I took some time to look through a bunch of documentation and did a ton of trial and error. Please Braincloud for the love of god add this to your API.

Rhino does not handle Arrays the way that other coding languages do.

I figured it out, unlike most arrays that return an array after you call push- Rhino returns the new length. So if you call push, don't set it's value.

var copyArray = []; //I assume this line tells it to be an array for (var i = 0; i < postResult.data..length; i++) { copyArray[i] = postResult.data[i]; //arrays do not behave like .Net arrays, you can change length without initializing, so you just set each index to the index of the array you're copying } copyArray.push(variableToAdd); //Do NOT set this as the value of your array, the push method returns an int (length of array) NOT an array! //you probably dont need to call push at all to add to the array as shown in the for loop above if you already know your length or want a specific length

Then just set your value to the variable, like this

var entityData = { "variableName": copyArray }; //No need to call Array(copyArray) or any of the prototype. slice stuff. If you call Array() you'll just nest the array a second time.

Use this page for further info on functions you can do with arrays.

Well - the new release isn't out yet - it's just a Release Candidate.

https://github.com/mozilla/rhino/releases

That said - we are very happy to see the progress - since it has been over a year since 1.7.13 was released!

Hopefully soon!

@JasonL
Thank you!!

Hi Reza, a simple workaround I would recommend is using our atomic methods, such as IncrementGlobalStats, to form the field values with the returned value of that method and some other characters you selected. (defined a global statistic ahead of time, call IncrementGlobalStats() get the returned current value of the global statistic, e.g. 123, then combine with the name you selected to a unique name, such as name_123)

@Travis-Brown-John You can create them manually from the Monitoring menu.

Monitoring | Global Monitoring | Global Entities.

Note - if your app is live, you need to unlock it first. You'll see a bit [+] button to the right of the Bulk actions drop-down.

Good luck!

Paul.

Hi @Alexandru ,

We've just officially added the Segment call you're looking for to brainCloud 4.55 - which is targeted for release in the next ~30 days...

Updated Roadmap here - https://portal.productboard.com/braincloud/1-braincloud-baas-roadmap

Edit . you can get all custom entities for the current user with the query

{ "entityType": "[entitytype]", "ownerId": "[profileId]", "context": { "pagination": { "rowsPerPage": 50, "pageNumber": 1 }, "searchCriteria": { // other search criteria here }, "sortCriteria": { "createdAt": 1 } } }
