Express-generator, Socket.io Event issuing multiple times.

Hi All,I have create a node app using express generator. I have integrated socket.io in the application. Since express generator has their own way of creating express server i have followed this procedure to successfully integrate the Socket connection with listening server and made the io available throughout the application via res.io instance.But the problem is when i m emitting an event as shown below. My client is reading the data multiple times. var clients = 0; var nsp = res.io.of('/default-namespace'); nsp.on('connection', function (socket) { clients++; console.log(clients + ' clients connected!'); socket.on('disconnect', (reason) => { clients--; console.log(clients + ' clients connected!'); }); nsp.emit("socketToMe", "New User connected. Current clients:"+ clients); }); My listener has the following code: var socket = io('/default-namespace'); socket.on('socketToMe', function (data) { $('#data-div').append($('

• ').text(data)); }); Whenever i refresh the browser in another instance like incoginito my main browser is showing multiple events for the data. Like thisNew User connected. Current clients:1 New User connected. Current clients:2 New User connected. Current clients:1 New User connected. Current clients:2 New User connected. Current clients:1 New User connected. Current clients:1 Not sure what is wrong. Can anyone help me on this?
