Corona Chat-App?

Hello everybody,

is it possible to create a corona chat app?

I mean are there functions to send a message to a server and back to a user?

If it is possible please give me some hints how to start and which functions I would need.

Greetings,

Maurice

Look up the network.request() API call.

Look up the network.request() API call.

The network.request() is slow. It’s burdened by a full HTTP call. I developed an HTML5 socket solution for use with pusher.com available here:

I have not yet seen a better solution.

I want to implement videochat option in ma App.using corona.?..plz help…

Corona SDK is not going to handle video chat.  You will need to access native libraries to do that which probably can be done in Corona Enterprise.

Take a look at this …

You can certainly use most of QuickBlox API via their REST interface but I haven’t tried their chat module.
