# Meeting Metadata

All metadata pertaining to a meeting is stored in `meeting.meta`. This includes important information about the meeting state, type, and connections.

## Access meeting metadata

To access meeting metadata, use the `meeting.meta` object.

**JavaScript**

```javascript
// Destructure the metadata to get meetingTitle
const { meetingTitle } = meeting.meta;


if (meeting.self.roomJoined) {
  console.log(
    `The local user has joined a meeting with title ${meetingTitle}.`,
  );
}
```

```jsx
import { useRealtimeKitSelector } from "@cloudflare/realtimekit-react";
import { useEffect } from "react";


function MeetingInfo() {
  const [meetingTitle, roomJoined] = useRealtimeKitSelector((m) => [
    m.meta.meetingTitle,
    m.self.roomJoined,
  ]);


  useEffect(() => {
    if (roomJoined) {
      console.log(
        `The local user has joined a meeting with title ${meetingTitle}.`,
      );
    }
  }, [roomJoined, meetingTitle]);


  return null;
}
```

**Kotlin**

```kotlin
val meetingTitle = meeting.meta.meetingTitle
```

**Swift**

```swift
let meetingTitle = meeting.meta.meetingTitle
```

**Dart**

```dart
final meetingTitle = meeting.meta.meetingTitle;
print("The local user has joined ${meetingTitle}.");
```

```tsx
import { useRealtimeKitSelector } from "@cloudflare/realtimekit-react-native";
import { useEffect } from "react";


const [meetingTitle, roomJoined] = useRealtimeKitSelector((m) => [
  m.meta.meetingTitle,
  m.self.roomJoined,
]);


useEffect(() => {
  if (roomJoined) {
    console.log(
      `The local user has joined a meeting with title ${meetingTitle}.`,
    );
  }
}, [roomJoined, meetingTitle]);
```

## Connection events

The `meta` object also emits events for indicating changes in the connection state of the meeting.

### Media connection updates

Updates to the media connection (WebRTC connection used for the transfer of actual media) are sent via the `mediaConnectionUpdate` event.

**JavaScript**

```javascript
meeting.meta.on("mediaConnectionUpdate", ({ transport, state }) => {
  // transport - 'consuming' | 'producing'
  // state - 'new' | 'connecting' | 'connected' | 'disconnected' | 'reconnecting' | 'failed'


  console.log(`Media connection ${transport} is now ${state}`);
});
```

The `mediaConnectionUpdate` event provides:

* **`transport`** \- Either `'consuming'` (receiving media) or `'producing'` (sending media)
* **`state`** \- Connection state: `'new'`, `'connecting'`, `'connected'`, `'disconnected'`, `'reconnecting'`, or `'failed'`

Updates to the media connection (WebRTC connection used for the transfer of actual media) are sent via the `mediaConnectionUpdate` event.

```jsx
import { useRealtimeKitClient } from "@cloudflare/realtimekit-react";
import { useEffect } from "react";


function MediaConnectionMonitor() {
  const [meeting] = useRealtimeKitClient();


  useEffect(() => {
    if (meeting) {
      const handleMediaConnection = ({ transport, state }) => {
        // transport - 'consuming' | 'producing'
        // state - 'new' | 'connecting' | 'connected' | 'disconnected' | 'reconnecting' | 'failed'


        console.log(`Media connection ${transport} is now ${state}`);
      };


      meeting.meta.on("mediaConnectionUpdate", handleMediaConnection);


      return () => {
        meeting.meta.off("mediaConnectionUpdate", handleMediaConnection);
      };
    }
  }, [meeting]);


  return null;
}
```

The `mediaConnectionUpdate` event provides:

* **`transport`** \- Either `'consuming'` (receiving media) or `'producing'` (sending media)
* **`state`** \- Connection state: `'new'`, `'connecting'`, `'connected'`, `'disconnected'`, `'reconnecting'`, or `'failed'`

You can access the current media connection state directly from the metadata.

**Kotlin**

```kotlin
val mediaConnectionState = meeting.meta.mediaConnectionState
```

You can access the current media connection state directly from the metadata.

**Swift**

```swift
let mediaConnectionState = meeting.meta.mediaConnectionState
```

Media connection events are not available in Flutter. Monitor the connection state through the meeting state changes.

Updates to the media connection (WebRTC connection used for the transfer of actual media) are sent via the `mediaConnectionUpdate` event.

```tsx
meeting.meta.on("mediaConnectionUpdate", ({ transport, state }) => {
  // transport - 'consuming' | 'producing'
  // state - 'new' | 'connecting' | 'connected' | 'disconnected' | 'reconnecting' | 'failed'


  console.log(`Media connection ${transport} is now ${state}`);
});
```

The `mediaConnectionUpdate` event provides:

* **`transport`** \- Either `'consuming'` (receiving media) or `'producing'` (sending media)
* **`state`** \- Connection state: `'new'`, `'connecting'`, `'connected'`, `'disconnected'`, `'reconnecting'`, or `'failed'`

### Socket connection updates

Updates to the WebSocket connection (used for chat, polls, and other basic signaling) are sent via the `socketConnectionUpdate` event.

**JavaScript**

```javascript
meeting.meta.on(
  "socketConnectionUpdate",
  ({ state, reconnectionAttempt, reconnected }) => {
    // state - 'connected' | 'disconnected' | 'reconnecting' | 'failed'


    console.log(`Socket connection is now ${state}`);


    if (reconnectionAttempt) {
      console.log(`Reconnection attempt: ${reconnectionAttempt}`);
    }


    if (reconnected) {
      console.log("Successfully reconnected");
    }
  },
);
```

The `socketConnectionUpdate` event provides:

* **`state`** \- Connection state: `'connected'`, `'disconnected'`, `'reconnecting'`, or `'failed'`
* **`reconnectionAttempt`** \- The number of reconnection attempts made (if reconnecting)
* **`reconnected`** \- Boolean indicating if the connection was successfully reestablished

Updates to the WebSocket connection (used for chat, polls, and other basic signaling) are sent via the `socketConnectionUpdate` event.

```jsx
import { useRealtimeKitClient } from "@cloudflare/realtimekit-react";
import { useEffect } from "react";


function SocketConnectionMonitor() {
  const [meeting] = useRealtimeKitClient();


  useEffect(() => {
    if (meeting) {
      const handleSocketConnection = ({
        state,
        reconnectionAttempt,
        reconnected,
      }) => {
        // state - 'connected' | 'disconnected' | 'reconnecting' | 'failed'


        console.log(`Socket connection is now ${state}`);


        if (reconnectionAttempt) {
          console.log(`Reconnection attempt: ${reconnectionAttempt}`);
        }


        if (reconnected) {
          console.log("Successfully reconnected");
        }
      };


      meeting.meta.on("socketConnectionUpdate", handleSocketConnection);


      return () => {
        meeting.meta.off("socketConnectionUpdate", handleSocketConnection);
      };
    }
  }, [meeting]);


  return null;
}
```

The `socketConnectionUpdate` event provides:

* **`state`** \- Connection state: `'connected'`, `'disconnected'`, `'reconnecting'`, or `'failed'`
* **`reconnectionAttempt`** \- The number of reconnection attempts made (if reconnecting)
* **`reconnected`** \- Boolean indicating if the connection was successfully reestablished

You can access the current socket connection state directly from the metadata.

**Kotlin**

```kotlin
val socketConnectionState = meeting.meta.socketConnectionState
```

You can access the current socket connection state directly from the metadata.

```swift
let socketConnectionState = meeting.meta.socketConnectionState

    if (reconnectionAttempt) {
      console.log(`Reconnection attempt: ${reconnectionAttempt}`);
    }


    if (reconnected) {
      console.log("Successfully reconnected");
    }
  },
);
