IBM MQ change userID when an app is started on remote MQ

When I deploy my app to remote IBM MQ. Then I see that userID is changed to a user of my pc. I set userID = prod, but see in logs (get logs from a remote MQ), that userID = ps (ps - the user of my pc).
But, if the app is started locally, I don't see this problem.
I use ubuntu, docker, Kubernetes, node.js.
I put userID in code, but might I should config it through Docker?
Or how should the conf be changed to fix this problem?

Server crash, sending message at restart (Node.js / Socket.io)

Hey guys i am doing a message system all is working fine but now i want to add the thing that if the server crash and restart the message that have been send during this time will be send at the restart of the server. I am trying to save the information of the message in the client side and make a "waiting" system that will wait to a server response. So i wanted to know how can i do that "waiting" system because now i am doing like that :
while (socket.connected === false) {
}
But that make bug the client because the infinit loop is way too fast ... so is that possible to set a timer ? (i have already tried but i dind't find how to make a good timer in a loop).
Or maybe i am totaly wrong and i haven't to do a waiting system but an other thing so tell me if my technic will not work or if there is one better :)
So here is my code :
Client.js (startTchat is called when someone is connected)
(function($){
var socket = io.connect('http://localhost:1337');
var lastmsg = [];
var me_id = [];
var friend_ = [];
var conv_ = [];
var isPlace_ = [];
var isLocation_ = [];
var me_ = [];
var my_id;
startTchat = function(user_id, username, friend_id, conv_id, isPlace, isLocalisation) {
my_id = user_id;
socket.emit('login_chat', {

username : username,
friend : friend_id,
conv : conv_id,
isPlace : isPlace,
isLocalisation : isLocalisation,
})
};
/**

socket.on('error', function(err){

}
event.preventDefault();
console.log('ME', my_id, 'TAB', me_id);
socket.emit('new_msg', {message: $('#message').val() }, me_id[my_id], friend_[my_id], conv_[my_id], isPlace_[my_id], isLocation_[my_id], me_[my_id]);
if (a === 1) {
console.log('HEYYYYYYYYYY', my_id);
}
$('#message').val('');
$('#message').focus();
});
socket.on('new_msg', function(message, me, id_receiver, id_transmiter){

ps : Tell me if you need more info, sorry if i forget something that my first time using js, node and socket.io :)

while (socket.connected === false) {
}
Don't do that, it will block your page and hold your processor to 100%.
Instead, use setTimeout. It's the equivalent of sleep in javascript. You need to refactor your code to call setTimeout in a recursive fashion, and count the number of "retries" (if you want to stop at some point).
Code:
$('#chat_form').submit(function(event){
var retries = 0, max_retries = 10;
function tryNewMessage() {
if (socket.connected === false) {
if (retries >= max_retries) return; //handle max_retries properly in your code
//this is where you sleep for 1 second, waiting for the server to come online
setTimeout(tryNewMessage, 1000);
retries++;
}
else {
var a = 0;
event.preventDefault();
console.log('ME', my_id, 'TAB', me_id);
socket.emit('new_msg', {message: $('#message').val() }, me_id[my_id], friend_[my_id], conv_[my_id], isPlace_[my_id], isLocation_[my_id], me_[my_id]);
if (a === 1) {
console.log('HEYYYYYYYYYY', my_id);
}
$('#message').val('');
$('#message').focus();
}
}
tryNewMessage();
});

Opentok chat is running slowly according I execute session.disconnect() and session.connect()

I am new to the Opentok API and I am writing tests. In my tests I simulated disconnecting from the room and connecting again, but if I execute it at various times, the chat is runs slowly, until broken.
To init the chat I run $scope.initSession() and to disconnect I run $scope.disconnectFromSession().
I am using the Opentok.js version 2.13.2. See my following code:
var apiKey, sessionId, token;
apiKey = //my api key;
sessionId = //my sessionid;
token = //my token;
var session = null;
var publisher = null;
var stream = null;
var connectionCount = 0;
var publisherProperties = {frameRate: 7};
$scope.connected = false;
$scope.initSession = function() {
if (OT.checkSystemRequirements() == 1) {
// Initialize Session Object
session = OT.initSession(apiKey, sessionId);
createElement("publisher");
// initialize a publisher
publisher = OT.initPublisher('publisher', publisherProperties);
session.on({
streamCreated: function(event) {
console.log("EVENT streamCreated: " + event.stream.name + " - " + event.reason);
createElement("subscriber");
stream = event.stream;
session.subscribe(stream, 'subscriber');
},
streamDestroyed: function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
console.log("EVENT streamDestroyed: " + event.stream.name + " - " + event.reason);
console.log('Stream ${event.stream.name} ended because ${event.reason}.');
}
});
connectToSession();
} else {
console.log('Browser haven´t support to WebRTC');
}
}
function connectToSession() {
session.connect(token, function(err) {
if (err) {
if (err.name === "OT_NOT_CONNECTED") {
showMessage('Failed to connect. Please check your connection and try connecting again.');
} else {
showMessage('An unknown error occurred connecting. Please try again later.');
}
} else {
// publish to the session
session.publish(publisher);
$scope.connected = true;
}
});
}
function createElement(id) {
console.log(document.getElementById(id));
if (document.getElementById(id) === null) {
var divPublisher = document.createElement("div");
divPublisher.setAttribute("id", id);
document.getElementById("div-videos").appendChild(divPublisher);
}
}
$scope.disconnectFromSession = function() {
session.disconnect();
$scope.connected = false;
OT.off();
}
$scope.initSession();
I appreciate any help.

WebRTC Between two pages in the same machine

My question is how to pass data between two pages on the same machine using WebRTC?

This WebRTC tab chat demo works across tabs or windows in the same browser without a server: https://jsfiddle.net/f5y48hcd/ (I gave up making it work in a code snippet due to a SecurityError.)
Open the fiddle in two windows and try it out. For reference, here's the WebRTC code:
var pc = new RTCPeerConnection(), dc, enterPressed = e => e.keyCode == 13;
var connect = () => init(dc = pc.createDataChannel("chat"));
pc.ondatachannel = e => init(dc = e.channel);
var init = dc => {
dc.onopen = e => (dc.send("Hi!"), chat.select());
dc.onclose = e => log("Bye!");
dc.onmessage = e => log(e.data);
};
chat.onkeypress = e => {
if (!enterPressed(e)) return;
dc.send(chat.value);
log("> " + chat.value);
chat.value = "";
};
var sc = new localSocket(), send = obj => sc.send(JSON.stringify(obj));
var incoming = msg => msg.sdp &&
pc.setRemoteDescription(new RTCSessionDescription(msg.sdp))
.then(() => pc.signalingState == "stable" || pc.createAnswer()
.then(answer => pc.setLocalDescription(answer))
.then(() => send({ sdp: pc.localDescription })))
.catch(log) || msg.candidate &&
pc.addIceCandidate(new RTCIceCandidate(msg.candidate)).catch(log);
sc.onmessage = e => incoming(JSON.parse(e.data));
pc.oniceconnectionstatechange = e => log(pc.iceConnectionState);
pc.onicecandidate = e => send({ candidate: e.candidate });
pc.onnegotiationneeded = e => pc.createOffer()
.then(offer => pc.setLocalDescription(offer))
.then(() => send({ sdp: pc.localDescription }))
.catch(log);
var log = msg => div.innerHTML += "<br>" + msg;
I use this for demoing WebRTC data channels. Note that the secret sauce is the localSocket.js that I wrote for this, which looks like this:
function localSocket() {
localStorage.a = localStorage.b = JSON.stringify([]);
this.index = 0;
this.interval = setInterval(() => {
if (!this.in) {
if (!JSON.parse(localStorage.a).length) return;
this.in = "a"; this.out = "b";
}
var arr = JSON.parse(localStorage[this.in]);
if (arr.length <= this.index) return;
if (this.onmessage) this.onmessage({ data: arr[this.index] });
this.index++;
}, 200);
setTimeout(() => this.onopen && this.onopen({}));
}
localSocket.prototype = {
send: function(msg) {
if (!this.out) {
this.out = "a"; this.in = "b";
}
var arr = JSON.parse(localStorage[this.out]);
arr.push(msg);
localStorage[this.out] = JSON.stringify(arr);
},
close: function() {
clearInterval(this.interval);
}
};
It basically uses localStorage to simulate web sockets locally between two tabs. If this is all you want to do, then you don't even need WebRTC data channels.
Disclaimer: It's not very robust, and relies on two pages being ready to communicate, so not production-ready by any means.

Use TripleSec encryption with Node.js Socket.io Chat

I am new to Node.js and I've created a simple chat application using Socket.io. I am trying to encrypt the messages using the triplesec library but I am having some issues. What would be the best approach to add this encryption/decryption:
var triplesec = require('triplesec');
// Encrypt Function
triplesec.encrypt({
key: new triplesec.Buffer('secretkey'),
data: new triplesec.Buffer('secretthings'),
}, function (err, buff) {
if(!err) {
var ciphertext = buff.toString('hex')
console.log(buff.toString('hex'))
}
// Decrypt Function
triplesec.decrypt({
data: new triplesec.Buffer(ciphertext, "hex"),
key: new triplesec.Buffer('secretkey')
}, function (err, buff) {
if(!err) {
console.log(buff.toString());
}
});
});
To this client: (All encryption on the messages coming in and going out will be handled client side, assuming this is the best approach?)
