socket and enet not working

[josefnpat]

Any chance we could get enet and socket working?

My game, xapalus, uses both socket and enet.

I get the following errors when launching the game, and then attempting to connect to a localhost server.

enet can work in emscripten-ported projects, for example Cube 2 uses it and it was ported in BananaBread. However,

1. You can only use non-blocking sockets (as web sockets do not block), which might be the issue with that stack trace (the code is for FIONBIO which relates to blocking IO).
2. On the web, you can only use websockets (or WebRTC), which are not normal TCP or UDP sockets, so this requires a different server than the native enet one.

Any news on this? I would love some explanations on how to get sockets to work with love.js. Thank you!
