var Engine = require('engine.io-stream');
var server = http.createServer(function (req, res) {
// ...
});
var engine = Engine(function (stream) {
stream.end('yup, I\'m up!');
});
engine.attach(server, '/engine');
server.listen(8000);
`
The connect to it from the browser:
`js
var reconnect = require('reconnect-engine');
reconnect(function (stream) {
stream.on('data', function (data) {
console.log(data);
// => yup, I'm up!
});
}).connect('/engine');
`
For the events you can listen to, see
reconnect-core.

`
npm install reconnect-engine
