Cloud Code

Delete call update and everything is working now. Thanks!

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

@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

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.

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.

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

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! 🙂

Cool. Thanks for sharing the solution here @devsleeper !

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...

Ah - perfect. Yeah - that sounds like a better option given the full requirements.

Glad you found it... and welcome to brainCloud!

We agree with that @antony - we'll get that request to the devs.

Cool - good to hear it. And once again: thanks for reporting it!

Thanks for reaching out and for raising the question.

At the moment, the VS Code extension does not support targeting or importing from a specific directory. Its primary purpose is to synchronize Cloud Scripts stored in brainCloud and provide a convenient way to edit them using standard VS Code workflows and tooling.

We have created an internal task to review this limitation and discuss potential improvements to the extension so that it better supports directory-based workflows in the future.

In the meantime, one practical workaround is to export your Cloud Scripts directly from the brainCloud portal. Once exported, all scripts can be reviewed locally. You can then organize them into a folder structure that mirrors your desired layout, including the use of subfolders and .ccjs files. From there, you can zip the contents and import them back into your app, which can significantly reduce the need for repetitive copy and paste actions across individual files.

Please let us know if this approach works for your use case or if you have additional feedback on how you would like to see the extension evolve.
