rust-socketio
A Rust implementation of the Socket.IO client protocol supporting both synchronous and asynchronous operations.
What is rust-socketio?
Rust-socketio is a Socket.IO client library written in Rust that enables real-time bidirectional communication with Socket.IO servers. It implements revision 5 of the Socket.IO protocol and revision 4 of the Engine.IO protocol, providing reliable real-time features for Rust applications. The library supports both synchronous and asynchronous operations with a clean, idiomatic API.
Rust developers building applications that require real-time communication with Socket.IO servers, such as chat applications, live dashboards, or collaborative tools. It's suitable for those who need protocol-compliant client functionality in Rust environments.
Developers choose Rust-socketio for its full protocol compliance, robust transport handling with automatic WebSocket upgrade and HTTP long-polling fallback, and support for both JSON and binary payloads. Its optional asynchronous runtime support using Tokio provides flexibility for non-blocking operations while leveraging Rust's safety and performance.
