websocket

A long-lived connection carrying text or binary frames. Its events are a stream, not a result: each one reaches the connecting node's handler method (on_websocket_event unless on_event names another) as a map { socket, kind, .. } with kind open, message (with text), binary (with bytes), closed or error, and nothing awaits a socket id.

3 functions, 0 constants. Scripts reach it as websocket::.

Functions

Argument kinds are the script values a call passes: node is a node handle, any a table or value of any kind, fn a callback.

function	acts on	what it does
close(int) -> any	—	Ask the connection to close, which still delivers a closed event; false when it was already gone.
connect(any, string, any?) -> any	—	Open a connection and return the id send and close take; options are on_event, compression and headers.
send(int, any) -> any	—	Queue a frame on the connection, text for a string and binary for bytes; false when it is already gone.
