ConnectionId
. You typically do this in your server-side code where you manage your SignalR hub. -
OnConnect and OnDisconnect Events: SignalR provides events like
OnConnectedAsync()
andOnDisconnectedAsync()
in your hub class, which you can override. Within these methods, you can track user connections and disconnections respectively. -
Store Connection Information: Upon connection, you can store the mapping of user identifiers to
ConnectionId
in some data structure (e.g., a dictionary or a database). -
Query User Connection Status: When you need to check if a user is connected, you can query this data structure using the user identifier to check if the
ConnectionId
associated with that user is still active.
Here's a simplified example demonstrating how you can implement this in C#:
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.SignalR;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
public class ChatHub : Hub
{
private static Dictionary<string, string> userConnections = new Dictionary<string, string>();
public override Task OnConnectedAsync()
{
string userId = Context.User.Identity.Name; // Get the user identifier (you need to handle authentication) string connectionId = Context.ConnectionId; // Store the mapping of user identifier to connection ID userConnections[userId] = connectionId; return base.OnConnectedAsync(); }In this example, OnConnectedAsync()
is called when a user connects to the SignalR hub, and OnDisconnectedAsync()
is called when a user disconnects. The IsUserConnected
method allows you to check if a user is connected based on their identifier. Remember to handle authentication and use appropriate user identifiers based on your application's authentication mechanism.
