Jeopardy friends sockets... to be moved server side

app.js

//below code to check answers and generate questions should probably be moved to the socket server side, instead of client side

//check answer
function checkAnswer(){
  var msgCheck = newMsg.value.trim()
  var answerCheck = answer

  if (msgCheck.toLowerCase() == answerCheck.toLowerCase()) {
    console.log(userEmail + ' is the dawg now')

    socket.emit('right-answer', {
        answer: answer,
        email: userEmail
    })


    //send new question if answer is right
    setTimeout(function(){
        generateQuestion()
    }, 5000)

  }
}

//get question from API and send to socket
function generateQuestion() {
  $.get('/api/random').then(function(data) {
    var stripHTML = data.info.answer.replace(/<[^>]*>/g, "")
    var stripAns = stripHTML.replace(/[^a-zA-Z ]/g, "")

    question = {
      question: data.info.question,
      category: data.info.category,
      answer: stripAns
    }
    socket.emit('new-question', question)

  }, function(err) {console.error(err);})

}

io.js

// io.js

var io = require('socket.io')();
var questionLoad = require('./config/question')



// Listen for new connections from clients (socket)
io.on('connection', function (socket) {

    socket.on('new-question', function (data){
      io.emit('update-question', data)
    })

  socket.on('add-message', function (data) {
      io.emit('add-message', data);
    });

  socket.on('new-question', function (data){
    questionLoad.setQuestion = data
    // question = generateQuestion()
    io.emit('update-question', data)

  })

  socket.on('right-answer', function(data){
      io.emit('right-answer', data)
  })

});

// io represents socket.io on the server - let's export it
module.exports = io;
