Websocket (RFC 6455 Implementation)

This repository provides a RFC 6455–compliant WebSocket implementation with both C and C++ APIs, enabling effortless integration into a wide range of applications. It supports both standard (ws://) and secure (wss://) connections, utilizing mbedTLS for encrypted communication.

📦 Features

• C and C++ Interfaces
  Flexible APIs in both C and C++ to match your project's language needs.

• WS and WSS Support
  Full support for WebSocket (WS) and secure WebSocket (WSS) connections, secured via mbedTLS.

• CMake-Based Build System
  Easy configuration and compilation using CMake for seamless integration.

• Doxygen Documentation
  Auto-generate API documentation with Doxygen for better clarity and onboarding.

🧩 Supported Extensions

• permessage-deflate
  Adds support for compressed messages using the permessage-deflate WebSocket extension.

⚠️ Limitations

• Sec-WebSocket-Protocol
  Currently not handled.

⚙️ Requirements

• C++11 or later
• CMake 3.0 or later
• Optional: Doxygen (for documentation)

🚀 Building from Source

git clone https://github.com/Mylifeismyhome/Websocket.git
cd Websocket
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-m64" \
      -DENABLE_C_API=ON \
      -DENABLE_CPP_API=ON \
      -DBUILD_SHARED=ON \
      -DBUILD_STATIC=ON \
      -DEXAMPLE_C_API=ON \
      ../
make

This will build both static and shared libraries, along with optional examples if enabled.
