respondToWaiting

Responds to a waiting participant by allowing or denying access based on specified options.

This function uses RespondToWaitingOptions to handle a participant in the waiting room, updating the waiting list and emitting an event through a socket to approve or deny access. The response type ("true" or "false") is determined based on the type provided.

Parameters:

• options - An instance of RespondToWaitingOptions containing:

• participantId: The unique identifier for the participant.

• participantName: The name of the participant.

• updateWaitingList: A function to update the waiting list.

• waitingList: The current list of participants in the waiting room.

• type: The approval type, which can be a bool or String ("true" or "false").

• roomName: The name of the room the participant is waiting to join.

• socket: The socket used to emit the response event.

Example Usage:

// Define a sample waiting list and an update function
val waitingList = listOf(
    WaitingRoomParticipant(name = "John Doe", id = "123"),
    WaitingRoomParticipant(name = "Jane Smith", id = "456")
)

val updateWaitingList: (List<WaitingRoomParticipant>) -> Unit = { newList ->
}

// Initialize options for responding to a participant
val options = RespondToWaitingOptions(
    participantId = "123",
    participantName = "John Doe",
    updateWaitingList = updateWaitingList,
    waitingList = waitingList,
    type = true, // Allow participant
    roomName = "MainRoom",
    socket = socketInstance // Assume socket connection is established
)

// Call respondToWaiting to process the response
respondToWaiting(options)
// Expected output:
// Updated waiting list: [Jane Smith]
// Emits an event to allow "John Doe" to join the "MainRoom".
