here an example of socket io client. 

import SocketIO    
class soket {
    var lat = ""
    var lng = ""
    let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as!AppDelegate
    init(lat: String, lng: String) {
        self.lat = lat
        self.lng = lng
    }
    func connect()  {
        print("llamada al socket")
        print(contantes.init().addres)
        let socket = SocketIOClient(socketURL: URL(string: contantes.init().addres)!,config: [.connectParams(["accessToken" : appDelegate.token]),.forcePolling(true),.nsp("/vendedor"), .log(true)])
        let myJSON = [
            "lng":lng,
            "lat":lat,
            "idvendedor":appDelegate.idSeller
        ]
        socket.on("connect") {data, ack in
            print("socket connected")
            socket.emit("setLocation",myJSON)
            print("Mostrando el Json: \(myJSON)")
        }
        socket.on("locationChanged", callback: {_,_ in
            print("disconnected")
            socket.disconnect()
        })
        socket.connect()
    }
}

this class is a simple socket to report device location to a server side, in this case the server side use namespace so the socket must join it so send data. here is th code how is called in viewController 

func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation]) {
    if let location = locations.first {
        let sok = soket(lat: String(location.coordinate.latitude),lng:String(location.coordinate.longitude))
        sok.connect()
        locationManager.stopUpdatingLocation()
    }
}

the main concepts behind sockets is that configure handlers to listen or emit data from server and the make the connection. here another example Socket.IO client integration in iOS Swift
