Features

Support for WebTransport

The Engine.IO client can now use WebTransport as the underlying transport.

WebTransport is a web API that uses the HTTP/3 protocol as a bidirectional transport. It's intended for two-way communications between a web client and an HTTP/3 server.

References:

For Node.js clients: until WebTransport support lands in Node.js, you can use the @fails-components/webtransport package:

import { WebTransport } from "@fails-components/webtransport";

global.WebTransport = WebTransport;

Added in 7195c0f.

Cookie management for the Node.js client

When setting the withCredentials option to true, the Node.js client will now include the cookies in the HTTP requests, making it easier to use it with cookie-based sticky sessions.

import { io } from "socket.io-client";

const socket = io("https://example.com", {
  withCredentials: true
});

Added in 5fc88a6.

Conditional import of the ESM build with debug logs

By default, the ESM build does not include the debug package in the browser environments, because it increases the bundle size (see 16b6569).

Which means that, unfortunately, debug logs are not available in the devtools console, even when setting the localStorage.debug = ... attribute.

You can now import the build which includes the debug packages with a conditional import. Example with vite:

import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [react()],
  server: {
    port: 4000
  },
  resolve: {
    conditions: ["development"]
  }
})

Reference: https://v2.vitejs.dev/config/#resolve-conditions
