#7 - Socket io emit/broadcast list

While developing a small personal project on socket.io, I found this great answer on stackoverflow.

 // sending to sender-client only
 socket.emit('message', "this is a test");

 // sending to all clients, include sender
 io.emit('message', "this is a test");

 // sending to all clients except sender
 socket.broadcast.emit('message', "this is a test");

 // sending to all clients in 'game' room(channel) except sender
 socket.broadcast.to('game').emit('message', 'nice game');

 // sending to all clients in 'game' room(channel), include sender
 io.in('game').emit('message', 'cool game');

 // sending to sender client, only if they are in 'game' room(channel)
 socket.to('game').emit('message', 'enjoy the game');

 // sending to all clients in namespace 'myNamespace', include sender
 io.of('myNamespace').emit('message', 'gg');

 // sending to individual socketid
 socket.broadcast.to(socketid).emit('message', 'for your eyes only');

So far,
