Is there a way to instantiate a pushing client which doesnt care about incoming messages? The current socket client requires a StreamSelectLoop argument..

cboden commented

An EventLoop is required as it does the async writes as well. If you don't want to receive any data from the server you can do the following:

->then(function (React\Stream\Stream $stream) {
    $stream->pause();
});

Ok thanks, but why do I need a DnsResolver? I know my ip address and port of the socket server, isnt that enought?

The createForAddress method will actually never use the DnsResolver instance..

I've confirmed @cboden's suggestion to work as expected. IMO this is a sensible approach. I assume this solves your question and we can close this ticket? If not, feel free to comment and we can re-open this.

PR #7 addresses this by making the Resolver optional. Let's try to move this discussion to this PR.
