It implements the protocol +version 13 described in RFC 6455. This library offers 2 levels of API: +event-based API and frame-based low-level API. For event-based API, it +is suitable for non-blocking reactor pattern style. You can set +callbacks in various events. For frame-based API, you can send +WebSocket frame directly. Wslay only supports data transfer part of +WebSocket protocol and does not perform opening handshake in HTTP. + + +Wslay supports: + +Text/Binary messages. +Automatic ping reply. +Callback interface. +External event loop. + +Wslay does not perform any I/O operations for its own. Instead, it +offers callbacks for them. This makes Wslay independent on any I/O +frameworks, SSL, sockets, etc. This makes Wslay portable across +various platforms and the application authors can choose freely I/O +frameworks. |
