Socketioxide 🚀🦀

A socket.io server implementation in Rust that integrates with the Tower ecosystem and the Tokio stack. It integrates with any server framework based on tower like Axum, Warp or Hyper. Add any other tower based middleware on top of socketioxide such as CORS, authorization, compression, etc with tower-http.

⚠️ This crate is under active development and the API is not yet stable.

Features :

Planned features :

  • Other adapter to share state between server instances (like redis adapter), currently only the in memory adapter is implemented
  • State recovery when a socket reconnects

Examples :
