Definitions of a channel factory. Factories follow a common model but enable custom behavior.

Signature

export interface IChannelFactory

Properties

Property	Type	Description
attributes	IChannelAttributes	Attributes of the channel.
type	string	String representing the type of the factory.

Methods

Method	Return Type	Description
create(runtime, id)	IChannel	Creates a local version of the channel. Calling attach on the object later will insert it into the object stream.
load(runtime, id, services, channelAttributes)	Promise<IChannel>	Loads the given channel. This call is only ever invoked internally as the only thing that is ever directly loaded is the document itself. Load will then only be called on documents that were created and added to a channel.
