SIOSocket is simple interface for communicating with Socket.IO 1.0 from iOS.
There is now a first-party iOS client for Socket.IO! (Therefore, this library is no longer being actively developed.) Congrats to the Socket.IO team for a job well done.
SIOSocket can be added as a CocodaPod, submodule, or standalone dependency to any iOS 7.0 (or greater) project.
pod 'SIOSocket', '~> 0.2.0'then...
#import <SIOSocket/SIOSocket.h>
// ...
[SIOSocket socketWithHost: @"http://localhost:3000" response: ^(SIOSocket *socket) {
self.socket = socket;
}];or, in Swift...
// ...
SIOSocket.socketWithHost("http://localhost:3000") { (socket: SIOSocket) in
self.socket = socket

An NSArray of these JSValue-valid objects:
- NSNull
- NSString
- NSNumber
- NSDictionary
- NSArray
- NSData
Generates a new SIOSocket object, begins its connection to the given host, and returns it as the sole parameter of the response block.
The host reachable at the given URL string should be running a valid instance of a socket.io server.
