Streaming files/images between socket.io in node.js and socket.io-java-client

[avivshafir]

I am trying to implement sending images from my gridfs in my node.js server to a java android client that uses gottox socket.io client implementation.
I succeeded sending images using the regular java.net.Socket by using
socket.getInputStream() and reading a stream sent from the socket.io in node.js.

the problem is that the socket-io-client doesnt have getInputStream.
I want to know if anyone has any solutions for this by any chance.
thank you...
