Socket.IO-Client-Swift

Socket.IO-client for Swift. Supports ws/wss connections and binary

Installation

1. Requires linking SocketRocket against your xcode project. (Be sure to link the frameworks required by SocketRocket)
2. Create a bridging header for SocketRocket
3. Copy the SwiftIO folder into your xcode project

Use

// opts can be omitted, will use default values
let socket = SocketIOClient(socketURL: "https://localhost:8080", opts: [
    "reconnects": true, // default true
    "reconnectAttempts": 5, // default -1 (infinite tries)
    "reconnectWait": 5 // default 10
])

socket.connect()

// Sending binary

        "test": true])
