Presence is keyed on apps.realtime.views_presence.PresenceDemoView's presence_key. Each connected WebSocket session shows up here. Disconnect → auto-removed.

The whole pattern

from djust.presence import PresenceMixin

class ChatRoomView(PresenceMixin, LiveView):
    presence_key = 'chat:{room_id}'

    def mount(self, request, **kwargs):
        self.track_presence(meta={
            'name': request.user.username,
            'avatar': request.user.profile.avatar_url,
        })

    def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
        return {'online_users': self.list_presences()}
