[Solved] [Socket] Websocket Payload

RumbleFrog · **Author**

Can anyone show me how to pack frame with payloads with WebSocket specs using socket?

I got the upgrade header down; I'm having a problem sending the JSON payload now.

An example would be https://github.com/peace-maker/sm-we...ocket.sp#L1271, but I'm not sure how to use it for myself.

Why don't you use a regular socket without the protocol overhead of a websocket?

I suppose I could, but all these JS libraries all use web socket protcol

Do you want to use WebSockets just because of some JavaScript libraries? Otherwise I think it would be much easier to send JSON over HTTP.

I've made my own socket protocol, and there's way too much overhead with standard HTTP calls.
