📦 Installation & Usage

If you just want to use the prebuilt WebSocket client in your own Python project:

✅ Install from PyPI

pip install small-websocket-prebuilt

🧰 Example Usage

from fastapi import FastAPI
from fastapi.responses import RedirectResponse
from small_websocket_prebuilt.frontend import SmallWebSocketPrebuiltUI

app = FastAPI()

# Mount the frontend at /prebuilt
app.mount("/prebuilt", SmallWebSocketPrebuiltUI)

@app.get("/", include_in_schema=False)
async def root_redirect():
    return RedirectResponse(url="/prebuilt/")

⌨ Development Quick Start

If you want to work on the prebuilt client itself or use it locally in development:

📋 Prerequisites

• Node.js (for building the client)
• uv (recommended for Python dependency management)

🔗 WebSocket Transport

The client uses @pipecat-ai/websocket-transport to connect to your Pipecat bot.

You can connect either:

• Directly using a WebSocket URL: ws://localhost:7860/ws
• Via endpoint: provide an HTTP URL that returns the WebSocket connection info
