wsock is an easy to use WebSocket implementation, as described by RFC 6455, except for protocol extensions. It features both WebSocket server and client.

Installation

$ [sudo] npm install wsock

Usage

Server example

var wsock = require('wsock');

var server = wsock.createServer();

server.on('connect', function(connection) {
    console.log('wsocket connected:', wsocket.socket.remoteAddress, 
        '(' + server.connections, '/', server.maxConnections + ')');

    wsocket.on('data', function(data, isBinary) {
        console.log('Recieved:', data.length > 64 ? data.length + ' bytes' : data);
        wsocket.send(data);
    });

    wsocket.on('close', function() {
        console.log('wsocket closed', 
            '(' + server.connections, '/', server.maxConnections + ')');
    });

    wsocket.on('error', function(ex) {
        console.error('wsocket error:', ex);
        throw ex;
    });
});

server.on('error', function(ex) {
    console.error('wsocketServer error:', ex);
    throw ex;
});

server.listen(80, 'localhost');

Client example

var wsock = require('wsock');

var client = wsock.connect({port: 80, host: 'localhost'}, function() {
    console.log('wsocket open', client.readyState);
    client.send('Hello World!');
});

client.on('data', function(data, isBinary) {
    console.log('Recieved:', data.length > 64 ? data.length + ' bytes' : data);
});

client.on('close', function() {
    console.log('wsocket closed');
});

client.on('error', function(ex) {
    console.error('wsocket error:', ex);
});

console.log('Client running');
