A socket.io
server implementation in Rust that integrates with the Tower
ecosystem and the Tokio stack
. It integrates with any server framework based on tower like Axum
, Warp
, Salvo
, Viz
or Hyper
. Add any other tower based middleware on top of socketioxide such as CORS, authorization, compression, etc with tower-http
.
⚠️ This crate is under active development and the API is not yet stable.
Features :
- Integrates with :
- Out of the box support for any other middleware based on tower :
- Namespaces and Dynamic Namespaces
- Rooms
- Ack and emit with ack
- Binary packets
- Polling & Websocket transports
- Common (default) & Msgpack parsers
- Extensions to add custom data to sockets
- Memory efficient http payload parsing with streams
- Flexible axum-like API to handle events. With extractors to extract data from your handlers
- Well tested with the official end to end test-suite
- Socket.io versions supported :
- 🔌protocol v5 : socket.io js from v3.0.0..latest, it is enabled by default
- 🔌protocol v4 : based on engine.io v3, under the feature flag
v4
, (socket.io js from v1.0.3..latest)
Planned features :
- Other adapter to share state between server instances (like redis adapter), currently only the in memory adapter is implemented
- State recovery when a socket reconnects
Examples :
Chat app 💬 (see full example here)
```rust
io.ns("/", |s: SocketRef| {
s.on("new message", |s: SocketRef, Data::(msg)| {
let username = s.extensions.get::().unwrap().clone();
let msg = Res::Message {
username,
message: msg,
};
s.broadcast().emit("new message", msg).ok();
});
s.on(
"add user",
|s: SocketRef, Data::(username), user_cnt: State| {
if s.extensions.get::().is_some() {
return;
}
let num_users = user_cnt.add_user();
s.extensions.insert(Username(username.clone()));
s.emit("login", Res::Login { num_users }).ok();
let res = Res::UserEvent {
num_users,
username: Username(username),
};
s.broadcast().emit("user joined", res).ok();
},
);
s.on("typing", |s: SocketRef| {
let username = s.extensions.get::().unwrap().clone();
s.broadcast()
.emit("typing", Res::Username { username })
.ok();
});
s.on("stop typing", |s: SocketRef| {
let username = s.extensions.get::().unwrap().clone();
s.broadcast()
.emit("stop typing", Res::Username { username })
.ok();
});
s.on_disconnect(|s: SocketRef, user_cnt: State| {
if let Some(username) = s.extensions.get::() {
let num_users = user_cnt.remove_user();
let res = Res::UserEvent {
num_users,
username: username.clone(),
};
s.broadcast().emit("user left", res).ok();
}
});
});
```
Echo implementation with Axum 🏓
```rust
use axum::routing::get;
use serde_json::Value;
use socketioxide::{
extract::{AckSender, Bin, Data, SocketRef},
SocketIo,
};
use tracing::info;
use tracing_subscriber::FmtSubscriber;
fn on_connect(socket: SocketRef, Data(data): Data) {
info!("Socket.IO connected: {:?} {:?}", socket.ns(), socket.id);
socket.emit("auth", data).ok();
socket.on(
"message",
|socket: SocketRef, Data::(data), Bin(bin)| {
info!("Received event: {:?} {:?}", data, bin);
socket.bin(bin).emit("message-back", data).ok();
},
);
socket.on(
"message-with-ack",
|Data::(data), ack: AckSender, Bin(bin)| {
info!("Received event: {:?} {:?}", data, bin);
ack.bin(bin).send(data).ok();
},
);
}
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box> {
tracing::subscriber::set_global_default(FmtSubscriber::default())?;
let (layer, io) = SocketIo::new_layer();
io.ns("/", on_connect);
io.ns("/custom", on_connect);
let app = axum::Router::new()
.route("/", get(|| async { "Hello, World!" }))
.layer(layer);
info!("Starting server");
let listener = tokio::net::TcpListener::bind("0.0.0.0:3000").await.unwrap();
axum::serve(listener, app).await.unwrap();
Ok(())
}
```
