Engine.IO-client.java

This is the Engine.IO Client Library for Java, which is simply ported from the JavaScript client.

Installation

The latest artifact is available on Maven Central. Add the following dependency to your pom.xml.

<dependencies>
  <dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.nkzawa</groupId>
    <artifactId>engine.io-client</artifactId>
    <version>0.1.2</version>
  </dependency>
</dependencies>

Usage

Engine.IO-client.java has the similar api with the JS client. You can use Socket to connect:

socket = new Socket("ws://localhost") {
  @Override
  public void onopen() {
    socket.send("hi");
    socket.close();
  }

  @Override
  public void onmessage(String data) {}

  @Override
  public void onclose() {}

  @Override
  public void onerror(Exception err) {}
};
socket.open();

You can receive events as follows:

socket.on(Socket.EVENT_ERROR, new Emitter.Listener() {
  @Override
  public void call(Object... args) {
    Exception err = (Exception)args[0];
  }
});

How to set options:

opts = new Socket.Options();
opts.transports = new String[] {WebSocket.NAME};

socket = new Socket("ws://localhost", opts) { ... };

Extra Features only for Java Client

Some features are added for simulating browser behavior like handling cookies.

socket.on(Socket.EVENT_TRANSPORT, new Emitter.listener() {
  @Override
  public void call(Object... args) {
    // Called on a new transport created.
    Transport transport = (Transport)args[0];

    transport.on(Transport.EVENT_REQUEST_HEADERS, new Emitter.Listener() {
      @Override
      public void call(Object... args) {
        @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
        Map<String, String> headers = (Map<String, String>)args[0];
        // send cookies to server.
        headers.put("cookie", "foo=1;");
      }
    }).on(Transport.EVENT_RESPONSE_HEADERS, new Emitter.Listener() {
      @Override
      public void call(Object... args) {
        @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
        Map<String, String> headers = (Map<String, String>)args[0];
        // get cookies from server.
        String cookie = headers.get("set-cookie"));
      }
    });
  }
});
