can socket.io-redis can be configured with redis-cluster?

Yes, here is an example: socketio/socket.io#1815

The above example seems to be of using a node cluster with a single redis server instead of a cluster of redis servers. Unless I am mistaken and the process for both is mostly the same except providing some sort of special url!

Please help!

I am also trying to figure out how socket.io-redis can be connected to a redis cluster.

@iojohnso An alternate could be to use socket.io-ioredis, available here:
https://github.com/GannettDigital/socket.io-ioredis

and provide prebuilt ioredis clients configured with redis clusters.

We also need a working socket.io adapter using a redis cluster. Did anyone solve this problem yet?
The suggestion of @chaudhryjunaid sounds promising, but it seems that prebuilt ioredis clients can only be provided for pub/sub (?)

FYI, GannettDigital/socket.io-ioredis#8

[darrachequesne]

By providing an ioredis pub/sub client (implemented in #95), you should now be able to connect to a redis-cluster.
