Socket.IO Client++

A websocket++ and rapidjson based C++ client for Socket.IO. This library is able to connect to a Socket.IO server, and then send and receive messages.

Usage

  1. Make sure you have the boost libararies installed.
  2. Include websocket++, rapidjson and socket_io_handler.cpp in your project.
  3. Include socket_io_handler.hpp where you want to use it.

Example Code

The minimal amount of code needed to make a connection to a Socket.IO server is as follows:

`socketio_client_handler_ptr handler(new socketio_client_handler());
client endpoint(handler);
client::connection_ptr con = endpoint.get_connection(handler->perform_handshake("ws://localhost:8080"));`

For examples of event binding and additional settings, see the sample code in the msvc folder.

Notes

This client isn't a full port of the Socket.IO client at this point. It doesn't handle reconnection events, fire off default events, or maintain any status indicators. If you'd like to help make this a full implementation of the Socket.IO client, fork away!
