Answer 2

There is no such package on packagist.org, therefore it does not connect. Try this article to set up composer.json and connect the git repository, as the author of superlogger connected https://habrahabr.ru/post/145946/ , but use https://github.com/socketio/socket.io instead of what you specified. In general, it’s better for a node to download using npm, since it’s not much more complicated than a composer.
