Multiplex results from (Django-Channels)

Hi,

I've currently setup Django channels to receive all the `messages` from a single `room`. However, I would like to set it up to receive `messages` from several rooms. In DRF, I'd use serializers to achieve this. However, in sockets, I am unsure how I would do it.

What is the correct

EG from chat rooms entitled `Foo` and `Bar` would look like this:

[
    {
        "label": "Foo",
        "pk": 5,
        "message": [
            {
                "handle": "Bruce",
                "message": "Yo"
            },
            {
                "handle": "Sol",
                "message": "Hey"
            }
        ]
    },
    {
        "label": "Bar",
        "pk": 10,
        "message": [
            {
                "handle": "Sol",
                "message": "Hi"
            },
            {
                "handle": "Alfred",
                "message": "Yo"
            }
        ]
    }
]

# consumers.py

@channel_session
def ws_connect(message):
    prefix, label = message['path'].strip('/').split('/')
    room = Room.objects.get(label=label)
    chathistory = room.messages.all().order_by('timestamp')
    Group('chat-' + label).add(message.reply_channel)
    message.channel_session['room'] = room.label
    message.reply_channel.send({'text': json.dumps([msg.as_dict() for msg in chathistory.all()])})

# models .py

class Room(models.Model):
    name = models.TextField()
    label = models.SlugField(unique=True)

class Message(models.Model):
    room = models.ForeignKey(Room, related_name='messages')
    handle = models.TextField()
    message = models.TextField()
    timestamp = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now, db_index=True)
    def __unicode__(self):
        return '[{timestamp}] {handle}: {message}'.format(**self.as_dict())


    @property
    def formatted_timestamp(self):
        return self.timestamp.strftime("%H:%M:%S")
   
    def as_dict(self):
        return {'pk':self.pk, 'handle': self.handle, 'message': self.message, 'timestamp': self.formatted_timestamp}
