🌈 Component Level Usage

if you want listen socket events from component side, you have to add `sockets` object in Vue component, and every function will start listen events, depends on object key

new Vue({
    sockets: {
        connect: function () {
            console.log('socket connected')
        },
        customEmit: function (data) {
            console.log('this method was fired by the socket server. eg: io.emit("customEmit", data)')
        }
    },
    methods: {
        clickButton: function (data) {
            // $socket is socket.io-client instance
            this.$socket.emit('emit_method', data);
        }
    }
})
