Assuming io

is your socket.io server object, you can do this from the server side to disconnect all currently connected clients:

io.sockets.sockets.forEach(function(s) {
    s.disconnect(true);
});

Clients may try to reconnect, depending on the client configuration.



FYI, there are many different answers to similar problems in this question: Socket.IO - how do I get a list of connected sockets / clients? but you should only pay attention to the answers that refer to versions of socket.io greater than 1.0, since this all changed with v1.0.

For me, jfriend00's solution doesn't work (as of today).

I had to do this:



Object.keys(io.sockets.sockets).forEach(function(s) {
  io.sockets.sockets[s].disconnect(true);
});
