#Socket.IO-Client-Swift
Socket.IO-client for iOS/OS X.
##Example
```swift
let socket = SocketIOClient(socketURL: "localhost:8080")
socket.on("connect") {data, ack in
println("socket connected")
}
socket.on("currentAmount") {data, ack in
if let cur = data?[0] as? Double {
socket.emitWithAck("canUpdate", cur)(timeout: 0) {data in
socket.emit("update", ["amount": cur + 2.50])
}
ack?("Got your currentAmount", "dude")
}
}
// Connect
socket.connect()
```
##Objective-C Example
```objective-c
SocketIOClient* socket = [[SocketIOClient alloc] initWithSocketURL:@"localhost:8080" options:nil];
[socket on: @"connect" callback: ^(NSArray* data, void (^ack)(NSArray*)) {
NSLog(@"connected");
[socket emitObjc:@"echo" withItems:@[@"echo test"]];
[socket emitWithAckObjc:@"ackack" withItems:@[@1]](10, ^(NSArray* data) {
NSLog(@"Got ack");
});
}];
[socket connect];
```
##Features
- Supports socket.io 1.0+
- Supports binary
- Supports Polling and WebSockets
- Supports TLS/SSL
- Can be used from Objective-C
##Installation
Manually (iOS 7+)
-----------------
1. Copy the SocketIOClientSwift folder into your Xcode project
CocoaPods 0.36.0 or later (iOS 8+)
------------------
Create `Podfile` and add `pod 'Socket.IO-Client-Swift'`:
```ruby
source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
platform :ios, '8.0'
use_frameworks!
pod 'Socket.IO-Client-Swift', '~> 1.3.2' # Or latest version
```
Install pods:
```
$ pod install
```
Import in your swift file:
```swift
import Socket_IO_Client_Swift
```
##API
Constructors
-----------
`init(socketURL: String, opts:NSDictionary? = nil)` - Constructs a new client for the given URL. opts can be omitted (will use default values)
`convenience init(socketURL: String, options:NSDictionary?)` - Same as above, but meant for Objective-C. See Objective-C Example.
Options
-------
- `reconnects: Bool` Default is `true`
- `reconnectAttempts: Int` Default is `-1` (infinite tries)
- `reconnectWait: Int` Default is `10`
- `forcePolling: Bool` Default is `false`. `true` forces the client to use xhr-polling.
- `forceWebsockets: Bool` Default is `false`. `true` forces the client to use WebSockets.
- `nsp: String` Default is `"/"`
- `cookies: [NSHTTPCookie]?` An array of NSHTTPCookies. Passed during the handshake. Default is nil.
- `log: Bool` If `true` socket will log debug messages. Default is false.
- `sessionDelegate: NSURLSessionDelegate` Sets an NSURLSessionDelegate for the underlying engine. Useful if you need to handle self-signed certs. Default is nil.
Methods
-------
1. `on(name:String, callback:((data:NSArray?, ack:AckEmitter?) -> Void))` - Adds a handler for an event. Items are passed by an array. `ack` can be used to send an ack when one is requested. See example.
2. `onAny(callback:((event:String, items:AnyObject?)) -> Void)` - Adds a handler for all events. It will be called on any received event.
3. `emit(event:String, _ items:AnyObject...)` - Sends a message. Can send multiple items.
4. `emitObjc(event:String, withItems items:[AnyObject])` - `emit` for Objective-C
5. `emitWithAck(event:String, _ items:AnyObject...) -> (timeout:UInt64, callback:(NSArray?) -> Void) -> Void` - Sends a message that requests an acknowledgement from the server. Returns a function which you can use to add a handler. See example. Note: The message is not sent until you call the returned function.
6. `emitWithAckObjc(event:String, withItems items:[AnyObject]) -> (UInt64, (NSArray?) -> Void) -> Void` - `emitWithAck` for Objective-C. Note: The message is not sent until you call the returned function.
7. `connect()` - Establishes a connection to the server. A "connect" event is fired upon successful connection.
8. `connectWithParams(params:[String: AnyObject])` - Establishes a connection to the server passing the specified params. A "connect" event is fired upon successful connection.
9. `close(#fast:Bool)` - Closes the socket. Once a socket is closed it should not be reopened. Pass true to fast if you're closing from a background task.
Events
------
1. `connect` - Emitted when on a successful connection.
2. `disconnect` - Emitted when the connection is closed.
3. `error` - Emitted on an error.
4. `reconnect` - Emitted when the connection is starting to reconnect.
5. `reconnectAttempt` - Emitted when attempting to reconnect.
