Installation
=============

This module is tested on Python 3.3.

Check out git repository of py3 branch, and type "python3 setup.py install".

This module does not depend on any other module.

Example
============

Low Level API example::

from websocket import create_connection
ws = create_connection("ws://echo.websocket.org/")
print("Sending 'Hello, World'...")
ws.send("Hello, World")
print("Sent")
print("Reeiving...")
result = ws.recv()
print("Received '%s'" % result)
ws.close()

If you want to customize socket options, set sockopt.

sockopt example:

from websocket import create_connection
ws = create_connection("ws://echo.websocket.org/".
sockopt=((socket.IPPROTO_TCP, socket.TCP_NODELAY),) )


JavaScript websocket-like API example::

import websocket
import threading
import time

def on_message(ws, message):
print message

def on_error(ws, error):
print(error)

def on_close(ws):
print("### closed ###")

def on_open(ws):
def run(*args):
for i in range(3):
time.sleep(1)
ws.send("Hello %d" % i)
time.sleep(1)
ws.close()
print("thread terminating...")
threading.Thread(target=run, args=()).start()


if __name__ == "__main__":
websocket.enableTrace(True)
ws = websocket.WebSocketApp("ws://echo.websocket.org/",
on_message = on_message,
on_error = on_error,
on_close = on_close)
ws.on_open = on_open

ws.run_forever()


wsdump.py
============

wsdump.py is simple WebSocket test(debug) tool.

sample for echo.websocket.org::

$ wsdump.py ws://echo.websocket.org/
Press Ctrl+C to quit
> Hello, WebSocket
< Hello, WebSocket
> How are you?
< How are you?
