I'm using the 'realtime' gem for realtime message.



Given something like(code from offical website)



# if using redis:
$redis.publish 'realtime_msg', {msg: 'hello world - ' + SecureRandom.hex, recipient_user_ids: [41, 42]}.to_json


How can I test this code with rspec?

          You can add a spy to $redis to assert that publish gets called with certain arguments like so:



          expect($redis).to receive(:publish).with('realtime_msg', /hello world/)`


          The last part, /hello world.*recipient_user_ids/ is just an example of a regular expression you could use to match the JSON string you're providing as a second argument to publish. You could use a custom matcher there or any other rspec argument matcher that serves your purpose.

            You can add a spy to $redis to assert that publish gets called with certain arguments like so:



            expect($redis).to receive(:publish).with('realtime_msg', /hello world/)`


            The last part, /hello world.*recipient_user_ids/ is just an example of a regular expression you could use to match the JSON string you're providing as a second argument to publish. You could use a custom matcher there or any other rspec argument matcher that serves your purpose.
