Hello!

Is there any websocket client implementation in D?
I know there is WS server as a part of vibe.d, but it does not seem to include client.
Maybe there are some library bindings that I've missed?

Thank you,
Ilya

It appears you are on your own.

There's some WebSocket stuff here:
https://github.com/adamdruppe/arsd/blob/master/cgi.d
It's for server side, but probably contains stuff you need for client too.

Yeah, I've been meaning to write a client for a while but haven't gotten around to it yet. What you do is make a HTTP request with a particular header, and if the server likes it, you're OK and can send messages. If not, the failure should be gracefully reported.

Could probably write it up in a couple hours.... if I had a couple hours :(

How about now?

Hi

vibe.d has a client implementation.

http://vibed.org/api/vibe.http.websockets/WebSocket

It is as simple as :


    auto ws_url = URL("wss://stream.binance.com:9443/ws/ethbtc@aggTrade");
    auto ws = connectWebSocket(ws_url);
    if ( !ws.connected )
    	return;

    while ( true )
    {
    	if  (ws && ws.dataAvailableForRead())
    	{
    		writeln("Recieve", ws.receiveText());
    	}

    	sleep(100.msecs);	
    }

We just implemented one in D.
See https://github.com/huntlabs/hunt-http/tree/master/examples/WebSocketDemo

Hi

I wish it would compiled than I would really give it a try.

It seems WebSockets moved from hunt-http to hunt-web. hunt-web dependency not yet in dub.

When I cloned hunt-web I couldn't get it compiled.

I have created bug : https://github.com/huntlabs/hunt-http/issues/13

I hope you have time to fix it soon.
