SocketIO DAT
Summary[edit]
The SocketIO DAT connects to a Socket.IO server at the specified URL.
Additional headers can be specified via the first input of the SocketIO DAT. This input should be in a table format with two columns, structured as name/value pairs.
The SocketIO DAT listens to specific events that the server emits. These events are added as listeners via the second input, structured as a single column of event names. Then, when the server emits these events the onReceiveEvent
callback will be triggered.
The SocketIO DAT can also emit events to the server. This is done using the python emit
method.
The SocketIO DAT is built with socket.io's C++ Client API v2.0.0. Works with with socket.io v2.x servers; socket.io v3 currently not supported.
