How to auth to wasteof socketio?

Sample code maybe (js code also will be fine)

My current code: connects to API but idk where and how to authenticate (I have token/session)

import os

os.system("pip install python-socketio[client]")
os.system("clear")
import socketio
sio = socketio.Client()

@sio.event
def dsconnect(data):
  print('I received a message!')
  print(data)


@sio.on('updateMessageCount')
def on_message(data):
  print('I received a message!')
  print(data)

@sio.event
def connect():
  print("I'm connected!")
  #sio.emit('login', {'Authorization': api.token})
  

sio.connect("https://api.wasteof.money/")

@non-biased-news @wynd @ankit_anmol you have to emit an “updateUser” message with your token like this:

socket.emit('updateUser',this.token)

(that’s what’s used for wasteof-client v3)

Also does anyone know how to send chat messages because I can’t figure out how to

I got it working without that

I have no idea how to use node.js, I use python.

What does that do?

if you use requests:

connect = requests.get('api.wasteof.money/messages', headers={'Authorization': api.token})

idk what to do for socket bc I’ve never used but the auth token needs to be in the header

so maybe

sio.connect('https://api.wasteof.money', headers={'Authorization': api.token})

idk python, but try

sio.connect("https://api.wasteof.money/", {
    auth: {
        token: "TOKEN_HERE" 
    }
})

You can post in js too

const { io } = require(`socket.io-client`)
io(`https://api.wasteof.money`, {
      auth: {
          token: token
      }
});

socket = the function

Thanks. I will try now

Have you tested it? Doesn't work for me

I have, whats your code?

Jeffalo just sent the same thing as you did. I think I cant translate to python :(

Iĺl try to translate to python, even though Idk python

Oh I’m dumb.. Thank you!! It worked!!!!
