I have solved the above problem by the following Source Code :

Server Side Code

// For Allowing Cross Site Origin Requests
var cors = require(‘cors’); const app = require(‘express’)();

app.use(cors());

const http = require(‘http’).Server(app); const io = require(‘socket.io’)(http,{ cors:{ origin:“http://localhost:8080”, methods: [“GET”,“POST”], credentials: true, allowEIO3: true }, transport: [‘websocket’] });

//Whenever someone connects this gets executed io.on(‘connection’, function(socket) { console.log(‘A user connected’);

//Whenever someone disconnects this piece of code executed socket.on(‘disconnect’, function () { console.log(‘A user disconnected’); }); });

http.listen(3000, function() { console.log(‘listening on *:3000’); });

Client Side Code

// Packages For Establishing Socket Connection import SocketIO from ‘socket.io-client’ import VueSocketIO from ‘vue-socket.io’

Vue.use(new VueSocketIO({ debug: true, connection: SocketIO(‘http://localhost:3000/’), vuex: { store, actionPrefix: ‘SOCKET_’, mutationPrefix: ‘SOCKET_’ }, extraHeaders: { ‘Access-Control-Allow-Credentials’:true }, allowEIO3:true }))

import { createApp } from "vue";
import App from "./App.vue";
import router from "./router";
import VueSocketIO from "vue-socket.io";
import { io } from "socket.io-client";

const socket = io("http://localhost:3000", { transports: ["websocket", "polling", "flashsocket"] });

createApp(App)
    .use(router)
    .use(
        new VueSocketIO({
            debug: true,
            connection: socket,
            //options object is Optional
        })
    )
    .mount("#app");

I passed a transports option like this using socket.io-client and it works.
