// Package socketclient is a pure Go implementation of adapter.VppAPI, which uses
// unix domain sockets as the transport for connecting to the VPP binary API.
//
// The current implementation only supports VPP binary API, the VPP stats API
// is not supported and clients still have to use vppapiclient for retrieving stats.
//
//
// Requirements
//
// The socketclient connects to unix domain socket defined in VPP configuration.
//
// It is enabled by default at /run/vpp/api.sock by the following config section:
//
//	socksvr {
//		socket-name default
//	}
//
// If you want to use custom socket path:
//
//	socksvr {
//		socket-name /run/vpp/api.sock
//	}
//
