How do you associate a node id with a user identity

[zicodeng]

I have user stored in database. When this user logs in and starts 1-on-1 chat with another user, we create a room for them. When the user joins, we get a peer joined event, but this peer CID is not associated with the user at all. What is the best way to associate node id with a user identity?

Also there seems to a significant delay when peer joined event is fired

Thanks in advance!

So here is my solution, not sure it is the best approach, happy to discuss with everyone here.

Similar to TCP 3-way handshake, I need other users to confirm that I have successfully joined the room first via peer joined event, then other users will broadcast this peer ID. If it happens to be my peer ID, that means I have successfully joined. Now, I can broadcast my identity to everyone in the room

Here is the repo: https://github.com/zicodeng/dchat, it has demo link in it

Thanks
