Release Notes

socketio/socket.io

v3.0.0

Compare Source

Bug Fixes

• close clients with no namespace (91cd255)

Features

• emit an Error object upon middleware error (54bf4a4)
• serve msgpack bundle (aa7574f)
• add support for catch-all listeners (5c73733)
• make Socket#join() and Socket#leave() synchronous (129c641)
• remove prod dependency to socket.io-client (7603da7)
• move binary detection back to the parser (669592d)
• add ES6 module export (8b6b100)
• do not reuse the Engine.IO id (2875d2c)
• remove Server#set() method (029f478)
• remove Socket#rooms object (1507b41)
• remove the 'origins' option (a8c0600)
• remove the implicit connection to the default namespace (3289f7e)
• throw upon reserved event names (4bd5b23)

BREAKING CHANGES

• the Socket#use() method is removed (see 5c73733)

• Socket#join() and Socket#leave() do not accept a callback argument anymore.

Before:

socket.join("room1", () => {
 io.to("room1").emit("hello");
});

After:

socket.join("room1");
io.to("room1").emit("hello");
// or await socket.join("room1"); for custom adapters

• the "connected" map is renamed to "sockets"
• the Socket#binary() method is removed, as this use case is now covered by the ability to provide your own parser.
• the 'origins' option is removed

Before:

new Server(3000, {
  origins: ["https://example.com"]
});

The 'origins' option was used in the allowRequest method, in order to
determine whether the request should pass or not. And the Engine.IO
server would implicitly add the necessary Access-Control-Allow-xxx
headers.

After:

new Server(3000, {
  cors: {
    origin: "https://example.com",
    methods: ["GET", "POST"],
    allowedHeaders: ["content-type"]
  }
});

The already existing 'allowRequest' option can be used for validation:

new Server(3000, {
  allowRequest: (req, callback) => {
    callback(null, req.headers.referer.startsWith("https://example.com"));
  }
});

• Socket#rooms is now a Set instead of an object

• Namespace#connected is now a Map instead of an object

• there is no more implicit connection to the default namespace:

// client-side
const socket = io("/admin");

// server-side
io.on("connect", socket => {
  // not triggered anymore
})

io.use((socket, next) => {
  // not triggered anymore
});

io.of("/admin").use((socket, next) => {
  // triggered
});

• the Server#set() method was removed

This method was kept for backward-compatibility with pre-1.0 versions.

v2.4.1

Compare Source

This release reverts the breaking change introduced in 2.4.0 (socketio/socket.io@f78a575).

If you are using Socket.IO v2, you should explicitly allow/disallow cross-origin requests:

• without CORS (server and client are served from the same domain):

const io = require("socket.io")(httpServer, {
  allowRequest: (req, callback) => {
    callback(null, req.headers.origin === undefined); // cross-origin requests will not be allowed
  }
});

• with CORS (server and client are served from distinct domains):

io.origins(["http://localhost:3000"]); // for local development
io.origins(["https://example.com"]);

In any case, please consider upgrading to Socket.IO v3, where this security issue is now fixed (CORS is disabled by default).

v2.4.0

Compare Source

Related blog post: https://socket.io/blog/socket-io-2-4-0/

Features (from Engine.IO)

• add support for all cookie options (19cc582)
• disable perMessageDeflate by default (5ad2736)

Bug Fixes

• security: do not allow all origins by default (f78a575)
• properly overwrite the query sent in the handshake (d33a619)

⚠️ BREAKING CHANGE ⚠️

Previously, CORS was enabled by default, which meant that a Socket.IO server sent the necessary CORS headers (Access-Control-Allow-xxx) to any domain. This will not be the case anymore, and you now have to explicitly enable it.

Please note that you are not impacted if:

• you are using Socket.IO v2 and the origins option to restrict the list of allowed domains
• you are using Socket.IO v3 (disabled by default)

This commit also removes the support for '*' matchers and protocol-less URL:

io.origins('https://example.com:443'); => io.origins(['https://example.com']);
io.origins('localhost:3000');          => io.origins(['http://localhost:3000']);
io.origins('http://localhost:*');      => io.origins(['http://localhost:3000']);
io.origins('*:3000');                  => io.origins(['http://localhost:3000']);

To restore the previous behavior (please use with caution):

io.origins((_, callback) => {
  callback(null, true);
});

Features

• add a 'binary' flag (#​3185)

// by default, the object is recursively scanned to check whether it contains some binary data
// in the following example, the check is skipped in order to improve performance
socket.binary(false).emit('plain-object', object);

// it also works at the namespace level
io.binary(false).emit('plain-object', object);

• add support for dynamic namespaces (#​3195)

io.of(/^\/dynamic-\d+$/).on('connect', (socket) => {
  // socket.nsp.name = '/dynamic-101'
});

// client-side
const client = require('socket.io-client')('/dynamic-101');

Bug fixes

• properly emit 'connect' when using a custom namespace (#​3197)
• include the protocol in the origins check (#​3198)

Important note ⚠️ from Engine.IO 3.2.0 release

There are two non-breaking changes that are somehow quite important:

• ws was reverted as the default wsEngine ([chore] Revert to ws as default wsEngine socketio/engine.io#550), as there was several blocking issues with uws. You can still use uws by running npm install uws --save in your project and using the wsEngine option:

var engine = require('engine.io');
var server = engine.listen(3000, {
  wsEngine: 'uws'
});

• pingTimeout now defaults to 5 seconds (instead of 60 seconds): [chore] Update default value of pingTimeout socketio/engine.io#551

This major release brings several performance improvements:

• uws is now the default Websocket engine. It should bring significant improvement in performance (particularly in terms of memory consumption) (https://github.com/socketio/engine.io/releases/tag/2.0.0)

• the Engine.IO and Socket.IO handshake packets were merged, reducing the number of roundtrips necessary to establish a connection. (#​2833)

• it is now possible to provide a custom parser according to the needs of your application (#​2829). Please take a look at the example for more information.

Please note that this release is not backward-compatible, due to:

• a breaking change related to utf-8 encoding in engine.io-parser (Fix double utf8 encoding for payloads socketio/engine.io-parser#81)
• an update to make the socket id on the client match the id on the server-side (Add nsp prefix to socket.id socketio/socket.io-client#1058)

Please also note that if you are using a self-signed certificate, rejectUnauthorized now defaults to true (socketio/engine.io-client#558).

Finally, the API documentation is now in the repository (here), and the content of the website here. Do not hesitate if you see something wrong or missing!
