eureca.io with typescript #37

Open ghost opened 7 years ago

ghost commented 7 years ago

will there be supports for typescript and typing definition in the future? and where can I find an example on how to use eureca.io with socket.io?

Hi @KhumpuW the default transport layer of eureca.io is engine.io which is the same transport layer of socket.io as you can read here https://github.com/socketio/engine.io socket.io from version 1.x+ is just a layer on top of engine.io, and all socket.io features are already present in eureca.io.

if you still want to use the standalone socket.io, you need to install a version above 1.0 (npm install socket.io@0.9.x ) and then specify the transport explicitely in eureca server and client : 

var eurecaServer = new Eureca.Server({transport:'socket.io'});

var client = new Eureca.Client({transport:'socket.io'});

if by socket.io you only mean the transport layer, then you don't need any change, use the default engine.io ;)
