Receive messages

The chat.on() listener allows you to receive messages in a chat room.

chat.on('message', (payload) => {
    console.log(payload.sender.uuid);
    console.log(payload.data.text);
});

Although you may send any valid object using chat.emit() , when the same payload is received by other users, it is augmented with additional data. The original message can be retrieved by calling payload.data. You can also call payload.chat and payload.sender to display chat room and sender details along with the message.
