Connecting ​

Connecting to the Socket.IO server can be done by peforming a connection to ws://localhost:9863/api/v1/realtime[1]. If your Socket.IO library doesn't do automatic namespace translation then specify the namespace as /api/v1/realtime.

You must specify websocket only transparent in the Socket.IO options as the server does not accept polling.

json
{
    // ... your config
    "transports": ["websocket"]
}

Authentication ​

While connecting you MUST specify your authentication which you received from POST /auth/request.

json
{
    // ... your config + transports
    "auth": {
        "token": "YOUR_TOKEN"
    }
}

  1. Some operating systems such as Windows may use an IPv6 address for localhost. The server is only listening on an IPv4 address and will result in a connection failure. ↩ī¸Ž
