# WebSocket and Socket.IO client for Android A very simple bare-minimum WebSocket and Socket.IO client for Android. ## Credits The hybi parser is based on code from the [faye project](https://github.com/faye/faye-websocket-node). Faye is Copyright (c) 2009-2012 James Coglan. Many thanks for the great open-source library! The hybi parser was ported from JavaScript to Java by [Eric Butler](https://twitter.com/codebutler) . The WebSocket client was written by [Eric Butler](https://twitter.com/codebutler) . The Socket.IO client was written by [Koushik Dutta](https://twitter.com/koush). ## WebSocket Usage ```java List extraHeaders = Arrays.asList( new BasicNameValuePair("Cookie", "session=abcd") ); WebSocketClient client = new WebSocketClient(URI.create("wss://irccloud.com"), new WebSocketClient.Listener() { @Override public void onConnect() { Log.d(TAG, "Connected!"); } @Override public void onMessage(String message) { Log.d(TAG, String.format("Got string message! %s", message)); } @Override public void onMessage(byte[] data) { Log.d(TAG, String.format("Got binary message! %s", toHexString(data))); } @Override public void onDisconnect(int code, String reason) { Log.d(TAG, String.format("Disconnected! Code: %d Reason: %s", code, reason)); } @Override public void onError(Exception error) { Log.e(TAG, "Error!", error); } }, extraHeaders); client.connect(); // Later… client.send("hello!"); client.send(new byte[] { 0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF }); client.disconnect(); ``` ## Socket.IO Usage ```java SocketIOClient client = new SocketIOClient(URI.create("wss://example.com"), new SocketIOClient.Handler() { @Override public void onConnect() { Log.d(TAG, "Connected!"); } @Override public void on(String event, JSONArray arguments) { Log.d(TAG, String.format("Got event %s: %s", event, arguments.toString())); } @Override public void onJSON(JSONObject json) { try { Log.d(TAG, String.format("Got JSON Object: %s", json.toString())); } catch(JSONException e) { } } @Override public void onMessage(String message) { Log.d(TAG, String.format("Got message: %s", message)); } @Override public void onDisconnect(int code, String reason) { Log.d(TAG, String.format("Disconnected! Code: %d Reason: %s", code, reason)); } @Override public void onError(Exception error) { Log.e(TAG, "Error!", error); } }); client.connect(); // Later… client.emit("Message"); //Message JSONArray arguments = new JSONArray(); arguments.put("first argument"); JSONObject second = new JSONObject(); second.put("dictionary", true); client.emit(second); //JSON Message arguments.put(second); client.emit("hello", arguments); //Event client.disconnect(); ``` ## TODO * Run [autobahn tests](http://autobahn.ws/testsuite) * Investigate using [naga](http://code.google.com/p/naga/) instead of threads. ## License (The MIT License) Copyright (c) 2009-2012 James Coglan Copyright (c) 2012 Eric Butler Copyright (c) 2012 Koushik Dutta Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the 'Software'), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
