# Engine.IO-client.java [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/nkzawa/engine.io-client.java.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/nkzawa/engine.io-client.java) This is the Engine.IO Client Library for Java, which is simply ported from the [client](https://github.com/LearnBoost/engine.io-client) for JavaScript. See also: https://github.com/nkzawa/socket.io-client.java ## Usage Engine.IO-client.java has the similar api with the js client. You can use `Socket` to connect: ```java socket = new Socket("ws://localhost") { @Override public void onopen() { socket.send("hi"); socket.close(); } @Override public void onmessage(String data) {} @Override public void onclose() {} }; socket.open(); ``` You can receive events as follows: ```java socket.on(Socket.EVENT_ERROR, new Emitter.Listener() { @Override public void call(Object... args) { Exception err = (Exception)args[0]; } }); ``` How to set options: ```java opts = new Socket.Options(); opts.cookie = "foo=1;" socket = new Socket("ws://localhost", opts) { ... }; ``` See the Javadoc for more details. http://nkzawa.github.io/engine.io-client.java/apidocs/ ## Features This library supports all of the features the JS client does, including events, options and upgraging transport. ## License MIT
