    I still have a question. Everything works fine at the moment. Send data from the client to the server isn't a problem now.

    But how can I emit a event to all connected clients serverside?

    Something e.g

    myPlugin.emit('plugins.publishMessage', {data: "Some data"}, function(err, result) { console.log(result); });

    After one hour spending searching different topics and some code I found the solution.

    Besides the custom clientside Sockets

    const myPluginSockets = require.main.require('./src/socket.io/plugins');

    you have to define the Server Sockets too

    const myPluginSockets = require.main.require('./src/socket.io/plugins'); const serverSockets = require.main.require('./src/socket.io');

    Now you can emit events from server side to the clients:

    serverSockets.server.sockets.emit('messageReceive', data);

    to receive the event clientside, you can use following in ur main.js file:

    socket.on('messageReceive', function(data){ console.log(data); });

    Client console output:
    {msg: "my message"}

    Maybe I'll write a little Tutorial on this because I am probably not the only one who does not understand it so easily.

    Hello Julian. Thank you for your very useful answer.
    The plugin was an old version.
    I just did uninstall then reinstall the last nodebb-api-write plugin (version 3.1.5) on our instance, but now I get the following error :
    /admin/plugins/write-api Introuvable (not found)

    That error is caused by the following bit of code in src/plugins.js

    paths = paths.map(function(pluginLib) { var parent = path.dirname(pluginLib); return cached.filter(function(libPath) { return libPath.indexOf(parent) !== -1; }); }).reduce(function(prev, cur) { return prev.concat(cur); });

    If paths is an empty array calling reduce will throw that error. We should add better checks to detect that.
