luvit-websocket

Websocket Library for Luvit.io.

Server works, client is still a WIP.

In the current version luvit-websocket only supports the websocket standard RFC 6455, thus it will only be able to handle connections from Chrome 16, Firefox 11, IE 10 and above.

Also it does not yet support Message Fragmentation.

Besides that, using a simple WebSocket connection in a moden browser should work fine.

Installation:

You can use npm to install luvit-websocket:

npm install luvit-websocket

Usage:

  local WebSocket = require('luvit-websocket')

  local WS = WebSocket.server(1734)

  WS:on('connect', function(client)
      print("Client connected.")
      client:send("random message")
  end)

  WS:on('data', function(client, message)
      print(message)
  end)

  WS:on('disconnect', function(client)
      print("Client disconnected.")
  end)
