Websockets Network

Overview

WebSockets enable two-way interactive communication sessions between the user's browser and a server.

When to Use This Skill

Use for live chats, real-time tickers, dashboard streaming, or prompt monitoring terminals.

Quick Start (with runnable code examples)

import asyncio
import websockets

async def echo(websocket):
    async for message in websocket:
        await websocket.send(f"Echo: {message}")

async def main():
    async with websockets.serve(echo, "localhost", 8765):
        await asyncio.Future()  # run forever

# To execute: asyncio.run(main())

Advanced Usage

Handle WebSocket ping-pong keepalives, custom header handshakes, and event connection retries.
