Real-time chat with dynamic channels and presence, over any transport — WebSocket, an HTTP relay, WebRTC, or a built-in loopback for tests.

Install

Example

import { createRooms } from "@metanet-games/rooms";
import { anon } from "@metanet-games/chaintag";

const rooms = createRooms({ transport: myWebSocket, identity: anon(localStorage) });
const lobby = rooms.channel("lobby");   // dynamic — name one, it exists

lobby.on("message",  m   => render(m)); // { author:{id,name,avatar}, text }
lobby.on("presence", who => showWhosHere(who));
lobby.join(); lobby.send("gm");
setInterval(() => rooms.heartbeat(), 10000);

Plug it into your game

Bring a transport and get chat + who's-here presence with zero server logic. Channels spawn on reference — one per lobby, per match, per block. Joining is presence, not access control: everyone on a transport sees all channels, so gate private/paid rooms at your relay, not the channel name.
