websocket.nvim

🚧 UNDER CONSTRUCTION: To see list of features to be implemented, see To-Do below

⚠️ UNDER MAJOR REWRITE: (2024-01-04) I am currently rewriting most of this library to support messages longer than the max packet size, SSL/TLS, key checking, header parsing and more. Expect breaking changes soon

A simple-to-use WebSocket client library for Neovim

Features

• 📨 Supports binary and text messages with high-level API
• 🏓 Supports ping/pong messages
• 🎭 Supports masking

Usage

local Websocket = require('websocket').Websocket

local sock = Websocket:new({
    host = "localhost",
    port = "80",
    path = "/"
})

sock:send_text("Hello, WebSocket!")
