proxy.golang.org : gopkg.in/madari/go-socket.io.v0

The socketio package is a simple abstraction layer for different web browser- supported transport mechanisms. It is fully compatible with the Socket.IO client side JavaScript socket API library by LearnBoost Labs (http://socket.io/), but through custom codecs it might fit other client implementations too. It (together with the LearnBoost's client-side libraries) provides an easy way for developers to access the most popular browser transport mechanism today: multipart- and long-polling XMLHttpRequests, HTML5 WebSockets and forever-frames. The socketio package works hand-in-hand with the standard http package by plugging itself into a configurable ServeMux. It has an callback-style API for handling connection events. The callbacks are: - SocketIO.OnConnect - SocketIO.OnDisconnect - SocketIO.OnMessage Other utility-methods include: - SocketIO.ServeMux - SocketIO.Broadcast - SocketIO.BroadcastExcept - SocketIO.GetConn - Conn.Send Each new connection will be automatically assigned an unique session id and using those the clients can reconnect without losing messages: the server persists clients' pending messages (until some configurable point) if they can't be immediately delivered. All writes through Conn.Send by design asynchronous. Finally, the actual format on the wire is described by a separate Codec. The default codecs (SIOCodec and SIOStreamingCodec) are compatible with the LearnBoost's Socket.IO client. For example, here is a simple chat server:
