GraphQL WebSocket
Coherent, zero-dependency, lazy, simple, GraphQL
Coherent, zero-dependency, lazy, simple, GraphQL over WebSocket Protocol compliant server and client. Messages are represented through the JSON structure and are stringified before being sent over the network. They are bidirectional, meaning both the server and the client must conform to the specified message structure. Connection is a connection within the established socket describing a "connection" through which the operation requests will be communicated. The server can close the socket (kick the client off) at any time. The close event dispatched by the server is used to describe the fatal error to the client. The client closes the socket and the connection by dispatching a 1000: Normal Closure close event to the server indicating a normal closure. -

Ratchet WebSocket
Asynchronous WebSocket server
Ratchet is a loosely coupled PHP library providing developers with tools to create real time, bi-directional applications between clients and servers over WebSockets. Write your own chat (aka "Hello World!" for sockets) application in a matter of minutes. After understanding "the new flow", event driven programming, compared to traditional HTTP request/response - writing any application on top of Ratchet becomes fast and easy. Ratchet provides many components for you to pick and choose from to easily add functionality. The component architecture allows you to focus on functionality with the ability to reuse and add or remove other component functionality. Ratchet is fully PSR-4 compliant, so it naturally plays well with others. Leveraging components from Symfony2, development should feel similar to many. Ratchet passes all WebSocket tests to ensure it works on all supported browsers. -

Socket.IO-client Java
A Socket.IO client library for Java
This is the Socket.IO Client Library for Java, which is simply ported from the JavaScript client. The latest artifact is available on Maven Central. There are several ways to handle events that are transmitted between the server and the client. Add the listener function to the end of the listeners array for the event named eventName. Add a one-time listener function for the event named eventName. Remove the specified listener from the listener array for the event named eventName. Remove all listeners for the specific eventName. Remove all listeners (for any event). Besides emitting and listening to events, the Socket instance has a few attributes that may be of use in your application. Each new connection is assigned a random 20-characters identifier. -

Starscream
Websockets in swift for iOS and OSX
Starscream is a conforming WebSocket (RFC 6455) library in Swift. Once imported, you can open a connection to your WebSocket server. Note that socket is probably best as a property, so it doesn't get deallocated right after being setup. After you are connected, there is either a delegate or closure you can use for process WebSocket events. The writeData method gives you a simple way to send Data (binary) data to the server. The writeString method is the same as writeData, but sends text/string. The writePing method is the same as write, but sends a ping control frame. Starscream will automatically respond to incoming ping control frames so you do not need to manually send pongs. You can override the default websocket headers, add your own custom ones and set a timeout. Update docs on how to load certificates and public keys into an app bundle, use the builtin pinner and TrustKit. -

websocket for Go
Minimal and idiomatic WebSocket library for Go
websocket is a minimal and idiomatic WebSocket library for Go. Minimal and idiomatic API. First class context.Context support. Fully passes the WebSocket autobahn-testsuite. Single dependency. JSON and protobuf helpers in the wsjson and wspb subpackages. Zero alloc reads and writes. Concurrent writes. Close handshake. net.Conn wrapper. Ping pong API. RFC 7692 permessage-deflate compression. Compile to Wasm. Transparent message buffer reuse with wsjson and wspb subpackages. Gorilla writes directly to a net.Conn and so duplicates features of net/http.Client. Gorilla requires registering a pong callback before sending a Ping. Compare godoc of nhooyr.io/websocket with gorilla/websocket side by side. Will enable easy HTTP/2 support in the future. -

ws
Tiny WebSocket library for Go
Zero-copy upgrade. No intermediate allocations during I/O. Low-level API which allows building your own logic of packet handling and buffers reuse. High-level wrappers and helpers around API in wsutil package, which allow to start fast without digging the protocol internals. Existing WebSocket implementations do not allow users to reuse I/O buffers between connections in clear way. This library aims to export efficient low-level interface for working with the protocol without forcing only one way it could be used. Library is tagged as v1* so its API must not be broken during some improvements or refactoring. Example applications using ws are developed in separate repository ws-examples. We can apply the same pattern to read and write structured responses through a JSON encoder and decoder.Zero-copy upgrade helps to avoid unnecessary allocations and copying while handling HTTP Upgrade request. -
