Compatibility with socket.io 1.0.6 ?

[tomahim]

Hello,

Since socket.io released a 1.0.6 version, do session.socket.io is compatible with this new version ? I need to migrate to this version and my previous code which contain
socket.handshake.getSession method is saying me that socket.handshake has no getSession method.

Is there a workaround or maybe the compatibility with socket.io 1.0.6 is plan soon ?

Thank you

Hi tomahim, do you want to send a PR making it compatible with the new version of socket.io? I'd be fine about merging that. There's also plans of doing the same for express 4.

Hi wcamarao,

I don't really have the time to send you a PR, but I managed to find a workaround, I don't know if it's a good solution but using : socket.conn.request.getSession instead of socket.handshake.getSession seems to work perfectly without any changes to session.socket.io

@tomahim your replacement solution worked great for me, this should be in the socketIO V1+ migration guide imho bump @guille

I've added support for express 4 which was tested with socket.io 1.3.5. It's now published on npm.

Please reopen if you still have any issues.
