Closing a room?

[Mettwasser]

How would I close a room upon having no connections to that room anymore?

[Totodore]

io.to("myroom").disconnect() or io.within("myroom").disconnect()

[Mettwasser]

Will this actually be deleted from memory? From what I was able to find in the source code, the strings will just be kept in memory, just without connections?

[Totodore]

This function will be called upon socket disconnection, cleaning the Sid list corresponding to the room.

However the "room" entry itself is not cleared even if there is no socket in it. This is a little memory leak that will be fixed with the PR #419.

[Mettwasser]

The memory leak was my concern, because in my case no room will be kept open for longer than 1 hour.

Good to know that you are aware of this. Awesome. Thank you!
