Java server and socket.io

Question

Are there any examples(ready scripts) to connect to java server with socket.io library? My problem: I have a server that works on java (proceed some data from clients) and a java client that is always connected to server (server is to be informed when a client is disconnected). I want to create a javascript extension for google chrome that replace this java client. But now server and client communicate now with simple text protocol.
