sails.sockets.rooms()

This method is deprecated. Please keep track of your rooms in app-level code.

Purpose

#

Get the list of all current socket rooms

Overview

#

Parameters

#

None.

Example Usage

#
// Controller action

getRoomsList: function(req, res) {
    var roomNames = JSON.stringify(sails.sockets.rooms());
    res.json({
      message: 'A list of all the rooms: '+roomNames
    });
}

Note: In Socket.io, all sockets are automatically subscribed to a global room with an empty name (''). This room is not returned as part of the array in sails.sockets.rooms
