javascript - Socket.on() listen for any event

I want to catch when any event, regardless of the name was sent from a socket. Is there some sort of wildcard I can use here for that?

io.on('connection', function (socket) {
    socket.on('any event', function (data) {
        ...
    });
});

u can use

socket.onAny((eventName, args...)=>{
//something
});

https://socket.io/docs/v4/listening-to-events/#socketonanylistener

you can use the wildcard plugin to listen to all events
