Handling Multiple Concurrent WebSocket Connections in Node.js with Socket.IO
I've looked through the documentation and I'm still confused about Could someone explain I'm working on a project and hit a roadblock....... I'm working with a scenario while trying to handle multiple concurrent WebSocket connections in my Node.js application using Socket.IO. My setup involves a simple chat application where users can send messages to each other in real-time. However, I noticed that when more than 5 users connect simultaneously, some of the connections seem to drop, and I get the following behavior in the console: ``` behavior: socket: client not found ``` I have configured my Socket.IO server like this: ```javascript const express = require('express'); const http = require('http'); const socketIo = require('socket.io'); const app = express(); const server = http.createServer(app); const io = socketIo(server); io.on('connection', (socket) => { console.log(`New client connected: ${socket.id}`); socket.on('sendMessage', (message) => { io.emit('receiveMessage', message); }); socket.on('disconnect', () => { console.log(`Client disconnected: ${socket.id}`); }); }); const PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000; server.listen(PORT, () => { console.log(`Server is running on port ${PORT}`); }); ``` I've tried increasing the server's max connections limit by setting `server.maxConnections = 100`, but it hasn't resolved the scenario. I've also ensured that I'm using the latest version of Socket.IO (v4.0.0) and Node.js (v16.14.0). Is there a specific configuration or best practice I should follow to efficiently manage multiple WebSocket connections without dropping any? Any insight on how to debug this would also be greatly appreciated! This is part of a larger CLI tool I'm building. I'm working on a API that needs to handle this. Is there a better approach? I'm working with Javascript in a Docker container on Windows 11. Has anyone dealt with something similar? Any ideas how to fix this? I've been using Javascript for about a year now. Thanks for any help you can provide! I'm developing on Windows 11 with Javascript. Any examples would be super helpful.
