[v5] get complete HttpContext in socket.io event

[rbartholomay]

Hi there!

I use socket.io with adonisjs as described in the cookbook. Via adonisjs middleware i extend the request with some useful informations. In socket.io i need this kind of informations and some cookie infos inside the initial eventhandler:

io.engine.on("initial_headers", (headers, request) => {
  // how can i get here the complete adonisjs HttpContent (Request, Cookies)? 
  headers["test"] = "123";
  headers["set-cookie"] = "mycookie=456";
});

The "initial_headers" event is the first request in socket.io described here: docs

Inside "initial_headers" the headers and request is different from the adonisjs Header and Request. How can i access the needed informations inside the event handler?

Any ideas?
