Socket.io timeouts?

[JoshZA]

app.authenticate({
    type: 'local',
    'email': 'admin@feathersjs.com',
    'password': 'admin'
}).then(function(result){
    console.log('Authenticated!', app.get('token'));
}).catch(function(error){
    console.error('Error authenticating!', error);
});

Win 10 with node v5.10.0

SocketIo only, no rest plugin loaded

When I run this, and there's no feathers server running - the Catch handler never fires, code just runs infinitely

Surely, there should be some default timeout for this?

Socket client timeouts are now implemented and set to 5000ms by default. They can be configured with app.configure(socketio(socket, { timeout: 2000 })) (see the documentation)
