Q:

Proper files for socket.io 0.7?

I'm developing something with node.js and socket.io, but I'm doing my local dev on Windows for my own convenience. Installation instructions for socket.io say just do npm install socket.io. This is fine for my linux environment, and I'm guessing node will just find it in modules. But on Windows I don't know what to do. I got version 0.6 working fine somehow, managing to find the files I need.
Now, it looks like I need two sets of files, one for the server side and one for the client. There's also two repos on github, socket.io and socket.io-client. So I'm trying to just download all the files I need from there. The issue is that the server one refers to the client one, but the socket.io-client files aren't in the server repo. If I put the server files in, and reference them in my node server, it crashes on startup saying Cannot find module 'socket.io-client'.
tl;dr If I'm just copying files into my project directory, rather than doing an npm install, what is the proper file structure to get socket.io version 0.7 running?

A:

Had the same issue here and I'm not using NPM either. But nothing to do with Windows: I'm on Ubuntu with the same prob.
You also need to have the socket.io-client module available in your node_modules path or wherever you keep the server-side socket.io module.
