iframe API: toggleLobby expects target state but does not know current state
Author: mbgonicusCreated Sep 4, 2026Updated Sep 16, 2026
What happened?
The iframe API has two categories of how to work with commands.
It either has a setter to set a specific target state, but also provides getter/events for the current state.
Or it has a simple toggle function which toggles the state in the backend, but exposes no information about the current state.
Now, the toggleLobby command requires a specific target state, but has no information about the current state (i.e. if lobby is enabled or not in the current room).
I suggest to either drop the target state parameter from toggleLobby or provide a get function and event such that the client can be aware of the current state.
