Here is a very simple JS implementation of connecting to the websocket and receiving data
const WebSocket = require('ws');
var that = this;
function connect() {
var url = 'ws://192.168.1.10/eventsocket';
var ws = new WebSocket(url);
console.log('attempt connection to ' + url);
ws.onopen = function() {
console.log('connection to ' + url + ' established');
};
ws.onmessage = function(e) {
try {
var jsonData = JSON.parse(e.data);
} catch (e) {
console.log('Invalid JSON data received from websocket', e.data);
return;
}
};
ws.onclose = function(e) {
console.log('HE Eventsocket is closed. Reconnect will be attempted in 1 second. ', e.reason);
setTimeout(function() {
connect();
}, 1000);
};
ws.onerror = function(err) {
console.log('HE Eventsocket encountered error: ', err.message, 'Closing socket');
ws.close();
};
}
connect();
