I want to : GET data (=previous chat messages) from Firebase when entering 300m of a chatroom geolocation.
My Code :
Here is my basic Firebase chat function :
var myDataRef = new Firebase("https://digitaldatastrategi.firebaseio.com/");
$('#messageInput').keypress(function (e) {
if (e.keyCode == 13) {
var name = $('#nameInput').val();
var text = $('#messageInput').val();
myDataRef.push({name: name, text: text});
$('#messageInput').val('');
}
});
myDataRef.on('child_added', function(snapshot) {
var message = snapshot.val();
displayChatMessage(message.name, message.text);
});
function displayChatMessage(name, text) {
$('<div/>').text(text).prepend($('<em/>').text(name+': ')).appendTo($('#messagesDiv'));
$('#messagesDiv')[0].scrollTop = $('#messagesDiv')[0].scrollHeight;
};
Here is my "activate Chatroom when within 300m" function :
if (chatroom) {
jQuery("#chat").slideDown("slow");
myDataRef = new Firebase(firebaseURL + chatroom[0]);
console.log("You are in:", chatroom);
}
else {
jQuery("#chat").slideUp("slow");
console.log("You are not in a chatroom");
} }
How can I do so not only does a chatroom active when I get within 300m but I ALSO get the data from firebase that is located at that chatroom. I can't manage to make the function(snapshot) to work properly. Only "undefined" appears in the chatroom window.
much appreciated. /a.
