An Objective-C client library for connecting iOS and OS X apps to Socket.IO servers (v0.7.2–0.9.x) over websockets or long-polling, built on SocketRocket. It supports messages, JSON payloads, events, acknowledgements, and namespaces.

Use cases

  • connect an iOS app to a socket.io 0.9.x server
  • send events and messages from Objective-C to a node.js backend
  • receive real-time updates over websockets on OS X
  • use long-polling fallback when websockets are unavailable
  • add authentication params to a socket.io handshake
  • acknowledge messages from the client with a callback

When to choose

  • you are locked to a legacy socket.io 0.9.x server
  • you maintain an old Objective-C iOS/OS X codebase that cannot adopt Swift

When to avoid

  • you target socket.io v1.0 or later (unsupported)
  • you can use the official socketio/socket.io-client-swift library
  • you are starting a new project
