Nativescript-socketio not connecting to sails server.

[toniton]

I'm having issues trying to use this library with sails server. I'm guessing the socket is closed before connection is established.

Here is an extract of my code private socketIO: SocketIO; private versionString: string; static VERSION: string = "__sails_io_sdk_version"; static PLATFORM: string = "__sails_io_sdk_platform"; static LANGUAGE: string = "__sails_io_sdk_language"; constructor(private router: Router) { } ngOnInit() { this.generateVersionString(['0.11.0', 'android', 'java']); console.log(this.versionString); this.socketIO = new SocketIO('https://#####-####.c9users.io:1337', { query: this.versionString, useCORSRouteToGetCookie: false }); this.socketIO.on('connect', function(data) { console.log("hey...."); }); this.socketIO.on('connect_error', function(data) { console.log('nawa ooooooo'); console.log(data); }); this.socketIO.connect(); } generateVersionString(sdkInfo: Array<string>): void { this.versionString = LoginComponent.VERSION + "=" + sdkInfo[0] + "&" + LoginComponent.PLATFORM + "=" + sdkInfo[1] + "&" + LoginComponent.LANGUAGE + "=" + sdkInfo[2]; }

I never tried connecting to a sails server before with it but i'll run some tests

Do you have any debug info to share?

@db3dev on connect error just returns null

Hello Toniton,

Im using sailsJs too and I got connected. It is a bit tricky but feasible.

To do it you should send 3 query headers:

const headersQuery = '__sails_io_sdk_version=' + '0.13.6' + '&' + '__sails_io_sdk_platform=' + 'browser' + '&' + '__sails_io_sdk_language=' + 'javascript';

If sails do not found those it will deny the request. Also you do need to send the cookie id somewhere, but as Im not using cookies, Im using a token I needed to some additional workarounds.

query should work fine now 😄
