How to detach/remove callback from socket ?

[jayendra13]

The documentation doesn't suggest any way to remove callback from socket. We can access the raw websocket object from property and call removeEventListener method of it, but that is not working for me.

var stream = $websocket("ws://localhost:7070/ws");

stream.socket.removeEventListener('message', callback);

Can anyone help me here ?

You can't do that for now as you don't have access to the original callback as you can see here https://github.com/AngularClass/angular-websocket/blob/master/src/angular-websocket.js#L122-L129

The callbacks are part of the internal library and it's not wise to reference them
