Error: cannot signal after peer is destroyed - simple-peer

979 views Asked by At

This error happens to me when I try to connect for the second time between two peers.

P1 - Person 1, P2 - Person 2

It goes like this:

P1 emits "Looking for partner" ->
P2 emits "Looking for partner" ->
Server emits to P2 "Partner found" ->
P2 creating new Peer with initiator: true
P2 emits to Server "I am ready" ->
Server emits to P1 "P2 wants to connect" ->
P1 creating new Peer with initiator: false
P1 emits to Server "P2 is accepted"
Server emits to P2 "You are accepted" ->
And they can talk at this point
Then When P2 is closing conversation
P2 is doing peer.destroy();
P2 emits to Server "Let P1 know that I disconnected"
Server emits to P1 "P2 is off"
P1 is doing peer.destroy();

And now when I want to do the exact same thing(P2 is again initiator) I receive this error. It happens exactly at Server emits to P2 "You are accepted" -> function when I do: peer.signal(data.signal);

This is how it looks like with peer._debug = console.log;

OK, turns out my code was a complete garbage and it shouldn't be done like this! I was following some bad tutorial. The problem here was with signals that were going in a constant loop ending with some error, somehow it worked like this but you couldn't destroy peers without getting application crashed.
