Oatpp-Socket IO Project

Overview

The oatpp-socketio project is an implementation of the Socket.IO / Engine.IO, v4 protocol in C++, specifically for OAT++.

WIP This project is still work in progress - engine.io has been implemented, we're working on socket.io at the moment.

Project Structure

This uses minimal prerequisites, esp.:

• CMake (build project)
• Oatpp (used for HTTP handling)
  • oatpp-websockets (websockets implementation)
  • oatpp-Swagger (for API documentation)

Project Setup

First, build the pre-requisites. As this has been implemented in Linux, build the oatpp libraries with the shared library option turned on.

Follow these steps to build the toffy-oatpp API project:

Create a build directory and run CMake:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..

Build the project:

cd ..
make -j$(nproc) -C build install

Run the Engine.IO server:

./build/app/engineio_server

The API will now be running and accessible. You can view the Swagger API documentation by navigating to:
