unable to connect to server with resource and params arguments

i am trying to connect to a speech to text server in the following manner:

`socketIO=SocketIO(host=,port=5000,resource="stream",params={"api_key":,"app_id":,"domain":"generic","language":"HI"})`

I am getting url not found 404 error. But when i tried to connect using this [tool](https://github.com/amritb/socketio-client-tool) connection was successful.
The server url given to me is as follows:

`http://:5000/stream?api_key=&app_id=
&domain=generic&language=HI`

Kindly let me know if my arguments are incorrect. I am not sure if giving resource as "stream" is correct.Thanks!
