const express = require("express");
var http = require('http').createServer(app);
var io = require('socket.io');
const socket = io(http);
http.listen(8080, () => {
    console.log(`Server is running on port ${PORT}.`);
});

You have to write more code of socket you can not connect to socket direct You have to write connection function

Follow This tutorial to know basics of socket

var express = require('express');
var app = express();
var http = require('http').createServer(app);
var io = require('socket.io')(http);

var port =  8080; // set our port

app.get('/', function(req, res) {
   res.sendfile('index.html');
});

io.on("connection", function (socket) {
    // Everytime a client logs in, display a connected message
    console.log("Server-Client Connected!");

   socket.on('disconnect', function () {
      console.log('A user disconnected');
   });
});

http.listen(port, () => {
    console.log('Magic happens on port ' + port); // shoutout to the user
});

index.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
   <head>
      <title>Hello world</title>
   </head>
   <script src = "/socket.io/socket.io.js"></script>
   
   <script>
      var socket = io();
   </script>
   <body>Hello world</body>
</html>

after running server check localhost:8080
