iphone socket.io

[Tyler Gillies]

anyone know if socket.io works on iphone? Its working on my desktop
browsers but doesn't seem to work on iphone...

[Micheil Smith]

Sockets.io would be best working with a native websockets implementation, which is
currently missing. There is a bounty of ~$150 on the PhoneGap mailing list for
the person to implement a raw socket api for phonegap.

Works for me on my iPhone 3GS with the long-polling transport

30 May 03:27:11 - socket.io ready - accepting connections

30 May 03:28:05 - Initializing client with transport "xhr-polling" < iphone

30 May 03:28:05 - Client 34623237140476704 connected

30 May 03:28:27 - Initializing client with transport "websocket" < safari 4

30 May 03:28:27 - Client 9715979627799243 connected

The only gotcha, as seen in the picture, is the progress bar constantly showing, which can be hidden with some <meta> tags I think.

What Socket.IO version are you using?

Also, iPhone OS 4 Safari is reported to include WebSocket.

Not sure I understand: WebSocket is the preferred transport for Socket.IO.

Yeah, although, rather then just using it in a web browser, you could use it through a
native application, but build with web technologies in phonegap.

I have to say, that reply did come across rather convoluted, my bad.

Ok, no WebSocket on the iPhone...

I use socket.io on a subdomain, so no long-polling => no socket.io.
That's a problem. I have to add a module for long-polling with
cross-SUBdomain or their is an other solution ?

CC,

I'm working on adding cross-domain support. Some forks already have it: http://github.com/mscdex/Socket.IO-node/
