Reliability

Transport behavior

SDK socket config:

  • transports: ["websocket", "polling"]
  • autoConnect: true

This allows fallback to polling if direct websocket transport is unavailable.

Connection failures

The connect() promise rejects when:

  • Socket.IO connect_error occurs
  • server emits auth error before authenticated

Handle by retrying with backoff in your app layer.

Reconnect and re-auth

SDK emits authenticate on every connect event.

This means reconnects automatically perform auth handshake again.

Handler safety

The SDK wraps handler execution in try/catch so one failing callback does not block others.

Idempotency guidance

Treat incoming steps as state transitions, not one-time fire-and-forget events.

  • Key by operation ids such as swapId, depositId, withdrawId, strategyId
  • Upsert latest state in your store
  • Allow duplicate and out-of-order events

Cleanup

Always unsubscribe handlers and call disconnect() during shutdown to avoid leaked listeners.
