Buffered events

[elmcapp]

Is there a way to get an array or list of Buffered events? Let say that the client disconnections and later reconnections. In this case we would have Buffered events but I would like to see what events are buffered as I may not want to emit those events after some time. Another use case would be that I may want to see why there is a delay or messages being received late. I could see what all message are in cue to be sent.

Hi! You can use the sendBuffer array:

socket.emit("hello");

console.log(socket.sendBuffer); // prints "[ { type: 2, data: [ 'hello' ], options: { compress: true } } ]"

Cool. So my next question, are we able to tell socket.io which of the message to send and which ones to dispose?
