Is it possible to listen for join and leave events on a room?

Question

I want to do something like:

var room = io.sockets.in(\'some super awesome room\');
room.on(\'join\', function () {
    /* stuff */
});
room.on(\'leave\', functi         


        

Answer 1

You can use the native "disconnect" event.

socket.on('disconnect', function () {

        io.sockets.emit('user disconnected');
    });
