how to listen for a event only in specific rooms not globally. In the docs I couldn't found a way to do that!

I want something like this

I have an admin room in my app which only admins can access and I want to listen to client events only in that room

I want something like this

io.in("room1").on(event,callback);

Hi! I see two possible solutions:

• you can check if the socket is actually in the restricted room

io.on("connection", (socket) => {
  socket.on("my-event", () => {
    const isAllowed = socket.rooms.has("admin");
    if (isAllowed) {
      // ...
    }
  });
});

• or use a namespace (that's their exact purpose)

io.of("/admin").on("connection", (socket) => {
  socket.on("my-event", () => {
    // ...
  });
});
