`io.socket.put()`

Send a socket request (virtual PUT) to a Sails server using Socket.IO.

io.socket.put(url, data, function (resData, jwres){
  // ...
});

Usage

	Argument	Details
1	url	The destination URL path, e.g. "/checkout".
2	data	Optional request data. If provided, it will be JSON-encoded and included as the virtual HTTP body.
3	callback	Optional callback. If provided, it will be called when the server responds.

Callback

	Argument	Type	Details
1	resData		Data received in the response from the Sails server (=== `jwres.body`, equivalent to the HTTP response body).
2	jwres		A JSON WebSocket Response object. Has `headers`, a `body`, and a `statusCode`.

Example

<script>
io.socket.put('/users/9', { occupation: 'psychic' }, function (resData, jwr) {
  resData.statusCode; // => 200
});
</script>

Notes

Remember that you can communicate with any of your routes using socket requests.

Need to customize request headers? Check out the slightly lower-level io.socket.request() method. To set custom headers for all outgoing requests, check out io.sails.headers.

Built with Love

The Sails framework is built by a web & mobile shop in Austin, TX, with the help of our contributors. We created Sails in 2012 to assist us on Node.js projects. Naturally we open-sourced it. We hope it makes your life a little bit easier!
