After calling socket join and then listing the rooms the socket is in the socket is only connected to the room defined by it s id it s own room.
Socket io rooms not working.
Socket io is not a websocket implementation.
I have also tried reconfiguring my server to match the suggestions made by raghavgarg1257 and it still did not work either.
Steps to reproduce if the current behaviour is a bug async socketjoinroom socket.
Additonally if rooms list is temporary you can clean it whit controlled event after disconnecting.
Rooms also share the same socket connection like namespaces.
Socket to socket id emit will not work as it will send to everyone in the room named socket id but the sender.
Within each namespace you can also define arbitrary channels that sockets can join and leave.
To leave a channel you call leave in the same fashion as join both methods are asynchronous and accept a callback argument.
If you are using some db o nosql you can save it for distributed environments.
Each socket in socket io is identified by a random unguessable unique identifier socket id for your convenience each socket automatically joins a room identified by its own id.
These channels are called rooms.
Socket io provides additional features over a plain websocket object which are listed below.
But first let s detail what the socket io library is not.
Once again let me know if there s anything else you d like me to test or try and reproduce the issue.
Rooms are used to further separate concerns.
Where you can save socket id or other identifier with rooms.
What socket io is not.
In server code socket rooms is not an array that is a object.
Repost from so but i need answers so here.
Please use the classic socket emit instead.
In disconnect event you can query this object to know the rooms you have to leave.
One thing to keep in mind while using rooms is that they can only.
I will get rooms with socket adapter rooms it s different to api doc.
Although socket io indeed uses websocket as a transport when possible it adds additional metadata to each packet.
So my socket join calls are doing nothing.
When i use socket join xxx socket rooms can t be set.
