I'm trying to set up a android socket.io client, but I'm having some difficulties. Right now I'm using this library:https://github.com/nkzawa/socket.io-client.java and everything is working great when we turn off the middleware. When it's turned on I need to send a header while connecting to the server but as I understand this library doesn't provide such possibility. So can someone propose a different library or share a workaround for this issue?
Thanks
I am using this library for a while and have found it very adequate. If you like to sent header, you may follow sample below; For version [0.6.0] (previous versions is little bit different)
1 - Create socket.io client
IO.Options opts = new IO.Options();
socket = IO.socket("http://server_address", opts);
socket.io().on(Manager.EVENT_TRANSPORT, onTransport);
2 - Implement callback handler onTransport
private Emitter.Listener onTransport = new Emitter.Listener() {
@Override
public void call(Object... args) {
Transport transport = (Transport)args[0];
transport.on(Transport.EVENT_REQUEST_HEADERS, new Emitter.Listener() {
@Override
public void call(Object... args) {
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
Map<String, List<String>> headers = (Map<String, List<String>>) args[0];
String bearer = "bearer " + session.token;
headers.put("Authorization", Arrays.asList(bearer));
}
}).on(Transport.EVENT_RESPONSE_HEADERS, new Emitter.Listener() {
@Override
public void call(Object... args) {
}
});
}
};
In example above, I set Authorization
header but you are free to set whatever you need.
