6.2.1 (2022-04-17)

6.2.0 (2022-04-17)

Features

• add details to the "close" event (b9252e2)

The close event will now include additional details to help debugging if anything has gone wrong.

Example when a payload is over the maxHttpBufferSize value in HTTP long-polling mode:

socket.on("close", (reason, details) => {
  console.log(reason); // "transport error"

  // in that case, details is an error object
  console.log(details.message); "xhr post error"
  console.log(details.description); // 413 (the HTTP status of the response)

  // details.context refers to the XMLHttpRequest object
  console.log(details.context.status); // 413
  console.log(details.context.responseText); // ""
});

Note: the error object was already included before this commit and is kept for backward compatibility.

• slice write buffer according to the maxPayload value (46fdc2f)

The server will now include a "maxPayload" field in the handshake details, allowing the clients to decide how many packets they have to send to stay under the maxHttpBufferSize value.

6.0.0 (2021-10-08)

This major release contains three important changes:

• the codebase was migrated to TypeScript (7245b80)
• rollup is now used instead of webpack to create the bundles (27de300)
• code that provided support for ancient browsers (think IE8) was removed (c656192 and b2c7381)

There is now three distinct builds (in the build/ directory):

• CommonJS
• ESM with debug
• ESM without debug (rationale here: 00d7e7d)

And three bundles (in the dist/ directory) :

• engine.io.js: unminified UMD bundle
• engine.io.min.js: minified UMD bundle
• engine.io.esm.min.js: ESM bundle

Please note that the communication protocol was not updated, so a v5 client will be able to reach a v6 server (and vice-versa).
