EventMachine based, async, Ruby WebSocket server. Take a look at examples directory, or check out the blog post below:
EventMachine.run {
EventMachine::WebSocket.start(:host => "0.0.0.0", :port => 8080) do |ws|
ws.onopen {
puts "WebSocket connection open"
# publish message to the client
ws.send "Hello Client"
}
ws.onclose { puts "Connection closed" }
ws.onmessage { |msg|
puts "Recieved message: #{msg}"
ws.send "Pong: #{msg}"
}
end
}
It is possible to accept secure wss:// connections by passing :secure => true when opening the connection. Safari 5 does not currently support prompting on untrusted SSL certificates therefore using signed certificates is highly recommended. Pass a :tls_options hash containing keys as described in http://eventmachine.rubyforge.org/EventMachine/Connection.html#M000296
For example,
EventMachine::WebSocket.start({
:host => "0.0.0.0",
:port => 443
:secure => true,
:tls_options => {
:private_key_file => "/private/key",
:cert_chain_file => "/ssl/certificate"
}
}) do |ws|
...
end
