Feature request: callback for when all everyone.now.methods have executed about now HOT 6 CLOSED

So right now if you do this, the callback you pass in will be called once for each client, in that client's this.now context.

To get the amount of clients connected you can do what you're doing now. We may add a client count feature so you can easily get the number of clients in a group.

Providing a callback (that runs once) when all callbacks have completed is easy to do, internally it would have to be a counter kind of like what you have now. The difficulty lies in the syntax. Not sure how you would pass this callback in during a remote function call on a group

from now.

@ericz, at the moment I am not doing this because I cannot get the max count. How would I achieve this functionality now?

from now.

Oh duhh. My bad you're right you don't have the max. I'll see if its easy to expose a way a count and get back to you

from now.

Ok this now exists in the master on github.

Simply do everyone.count or somegroup.count to get the number of users at the time. Make sure you are careful as its possible that the remote call does not return before the usercount changes.

This is an undocumented feature and the api for this will probably change in the future

from now.

@ericz, thanks. Should a new issue be created such as "document group.count and improve API" or do you have an internal ToDo?

Just figured that it should not be forgotten

from now.

I have an internal todo already so no issue is necessary, thanks!
