Package Exports

presidium-websocket
presidium-websocket/ServerWebSocket
presidium-websocket/ServerWebSocket.js
presidium-websocket/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (presidium-websocket) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Presidium WebSocket

WebSocket client and server for Node.js. Implements RFC 6455 and RFC 7692.

const WebSocket = require('presidium-websocket')

const server = new WebSocket.Server(websocket => {
  websocket.on('message', message => {
    console.log('Message from client:', message)
    websocket.send('Hello from server!')
  })
  websocket.on('close', () => {
    console.log('websocket closed')
  })
})

server.listen(1337, () => {
  console.log('WebSocket server listening on port 1337')
})

const websocket = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:1337/')

websocket.on('open', () => {
  websocket.send('Hello from client!')
})
websocket.on('message', message => {
  console.log('Message from server:', message)
})

Serve WebSocket Secure (WSS) connections.

const WebSocket = require('presidium-websocket')
const fs = require('fs')

const server = new WebSocket.SecureServer({
  key: fs.readFileSync('/path/to/my-key'),
  cert: fs.readFileSync('/path/to/my-cert')
})

server.on('connection', websocket => {
  websocket.on('message', message => {
    console.log('Secure message from client:', message)
    websocket.send('Hello from server!')
  })
  websocket.on('close', () => {
    console.log('websocket closed')
  })
})

server.listen(4443, () => {
  console.log('WebSocket Secure server listening on port 4443')
})

const websocket = new WebSocket('wss://localhost:4443/')

websocket.on('open', () => {
  websocket.send('Hello from client!')
})
websocket.on('message', message => {
  console.log('Message from server:', message)
})

Supports Compression Extensions for WebSocket with supportPerMessageDeflate (uses zlib default options).

const server = new WebSocket.Server({ supportPerMessageDeflate: true })

Initiate new connections on the same websocket instance.

const websocket = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:1337/')

// reconnect websocket on broken connections
while (true) {
  if (websocket.readyState === 1) {
    // websocket is open
  } else {
    // reconnect
    websocket.connect()
  }
  await sleep(10000)
}
