Laravel echo is no listening

Question

I'm trying to do a simple real time chat using broadcast events with socket.io That is my chatController.. ``` public function index(Request $request) { $sender=Auth::user()->id; $receiver=\App\User::find(2); $message=new Message; $message->message="Hola, esto es una prueba de eventos"; $message->user_receiver_id=$receiver->id; $message->user_sender_id=Auth::user()->id; $message->id_chat=1; $message->save(); event(new \App\Events\sendMessage($message,$receiver)); return response()->json(["status"=>"ok"]); } ``` This chat store in a database the messages according to determinate group (chat). The event that will be fired is: ``` class sendMessage implements ShouldBroadcast { use Dispatchable, InteractsWithSockets, SerializesModels; /** * Create a new event instance. * * @return void */ public $message; public $user_receiver; public function __construct(Message $message,User $user_receiver) { $this->message=$message; $this->user_receiver=$user_receiver; } public function broadcastOn() {…

Accepted Answer

If you using the Echo.channel(`my-channel`) for example you need to do something like this, attention to the ('.my-event') for some reason you need to a (.) before the event name.

```
Echo.channel(`my-channel`)
.listen('.my-event', (e) => {
    consolec.log(e);
});
```
