What is it?

-----------

gwsocket is a standalone, simple, yet powerful rfc6455 compliant WebSocket

Server, written in C.

Why?

----

I needed a simple, fast, no-dependencies, RFC6455 compliant WebSocket Server

written in C that I could use as a library for the upcoming version (v1.0) of

GoAccess by simply piping data in and out.

Features

-------

* Message Fragmentation per section 5.4

* UTF-8 Handling

* Framing (Text & Binary messages)

* Multiplexed non-blocking network I/O

* Ability to pipe data in/out in two different modes (stdin/stdout & strict mode)

* It passes the Autobahn Testsuite :)

* and of course, Valgrind tested.

* missing something?, please feel free to post it on Github.

How it Works?

-------------

Very simple, just pipe your data out of your application and let gwsocket do

the rest. e.g.: tail -f /var/log/nginx/access.log > /tmp/wspipein.fifo

By the way, you can also pipe the client's data into your application.

Note: You can even send your favorite NCurses program's output. See

https://github.com/allinurl/gwsocket.
