Is it possible to use livereload with socket.io?

[ghost]

I'm currently having a project that runs with grunt serve command. serve is defined like this in my Gruntfile.js

grunt.registerTask('serve', function (target) {
    if (target === 'dist') {
      return grunt.task.run(['build', 'connect:dist:keepalive']);
    }

    grunt.task.run([
      'clean:server',
      'bower-install',
      'concurrent:server',
      'configureProxies:server',
      'autoprefixer',
      'connect:livereload',
      'watch'
    ]);
  });

I setup socket.io using onCreateServer function like this (server options under connect object):

  options: {
    port: 9000,
    hostname: 'localhost',
    livereload: 35729, //was 35729
    onCreateServer: function(server, connect, options){
        var io = require('socket.io').listen(server);
        console.log("Hello World!");
    }
  },

According to the grunt-contrib-connect guide when using onCreateServer function you should run this with grunt connect command, so if I add connect in my grunt serve task like this:

grunt.registerTask('serve', function (target) {
    if (target === 'dist') {
      return grunt.task.run(['build', 'connect:dist:keepalive']);
    }

    grunt.task.run([
      'clean:server',
      'bower-install',
      'concurrent:server',
      'configureProxies:server',
      'autoprefixer',
      'connect:livereload',
      'connect',
      'watch'
    ]);
  });

It says that "Fatal error: Port 9000 is already in use by another process.". So I want to know is it possible to use socket.io with livereload or not? If yes what's good practice to do it?

Okay, found the solution. It seemed my code was correct and socket.io at onCreateServer function can actually listen properly the server that is running.
