Cool.io-WebSocket¶ ↑

Cool.io-WebSocket is a WebSocket server implementation based on Cool.io, a high performance event-driven I/O library for Ruby.

This library conforms to WebSocket draft-75 and draft-76.

• github.com/maxjustus/cool.io-websocket

gem install cool.io-websocket

• examples/echo.rb - receives a message from clients and just echos.

• examples/shoutchat.rb - simple chat application.

• examples/rpc.rb - pushes messages to browsers from programs separated from the web socket server.

See examples/README.md for details.
