how to check socket.io connection status using swift API

I am using socket.io with my swift iOS app. Occasionally my socket connection is dropped.

How can I check the status of the connection so that I may re-connect if it is not connected? I couldn't find any commands for checking the status of the connection in the client API documents.

I'm using iOS 11 with swift 4.

You can use it separately like the following ...

private var socket:SocketIOClient!



if socket.status == connecting || socket.status == connected {
    //socket is active 
    return 
}

or a better way is to use active parameter like follows...

func establishConnection(){
     if socket.status.active{
          return
      }
      socket.connect()
}

Swift 4:

    let socketConnectionStatus = socket.status

    switch socketConnectionStatus {
    case SocketIOStatus.connected:
        print("socket connected")
    case SocketIOStatus.connecting:
        print("socket connecting")
    case SocketIOStatus.disconnected:
        print("socket disconnected")
    case SocketIOStatus.notConnected:
        print("socket not connected")
    }

Searched through the code and found simple solution:

let socketConnectionStatus = SocketIOManager.sharedInstance.socket.status

switch socketConnectionStatus {
case SocketIOClientStatus.connected:
   print("socket connected")
case SocketIOClientStatus.connecting:
   print("socket connecting")
case SocketIOClientStatus.disconnected:
   print("socket disconnected")
case SocketIOClientStatus.notConnected:
   print("socket not connected")
}
