README
Session middleware for socket.io v1.x;
Examples
var socketSessions = require('socket.io-handshake');
var io = require('socket.io')(3000);
io.use( socketSessions() );
Using connect-redis for our session store.
var session = require('express-session');
var RedisStore = require('connect-redis')(session);
var sessionStore = new RedisStore();
var cookieParser = require('cookie-parser');
var socketHandshake = require('socket.io-handshake');
var io = require('socket.io')(3000);
io.use(socketHandshake({store: sessionStore, key:'sid', secret:'secret', parser:cookieParser()}));
To access the session data.
io.on('connection' function (sock) {
if (!sock.handshake.session.name) {
sock.emit('get name');
};
sock.on('set nama', function (name) {
sock.handhsake.session.name = name;
sock.handshake.session.save();
});
});
