Get connection status on Socket.io client

Question

I\'m using Socket.io, and I\'d like to know the status of connection to the server from the client-side.

Something like this:

socket.status // return         


        

Answer 1

@robertklep's answer to check socket.connected is correct except for reconnect event, https://socket.io/docs/client-api/#event-reconnect As the document said it is "Fired upon a successful reconnection." but when you check socket.connected then it is false.

Not sure it is a bug or intentional.
