Quickstart

Create your server.

// File: app.ts

import { Server } from "https://deno.land/x/sockets@v0.5.0/mod.ts";

// Create the server
const server = new Server();

// Run the server
server.run({
  hostname: "127.0.0.1",
  port: 1777,
});

console.log(
  `Server started on ws://${server.hostname}:${server.port}`,
);

Run your server.

$ deno run --allow-net app.ts
Server started on ws://127.0.0.1:1777

Connect to your server using wscat and send a ping packet.

$ npm install -g wscat
$ wscat -c ws://127.0.0.1:1777
> ping
