A Promise-Based WebSocket implementation for Node.js

Package Exports

  • promise-ws

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 (promise-ws) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

API Reference

promise-ws API is almost the same with ws except that:

  • websocket.ping([data[, mask]]) returns a promise
  • websocket.pong([data[, mask]]) returns a promise
  • websocket.send(data[, options]) returns a promise
  • 🆕 WebSocket.Server.create(options), returns a promise of listened WebSocket.Server instance
  • 🆕 WebSocket.create(options), returns a promise of opened WebSocket instance

For more WebSocket API, please checkout the API doc.
