NinjaWebSocket is an easy-to-use .NET6 WebSocket client with auto-reconnect and keep-alive capabilities.
Lightweight library, user-friendly API, inspired by the javascript WebSocket API and SignalR.
The repo also contains two usage examples:
Basic usage:
var ws = new NinjaWebSocket("<websocket_url>")
.SetKeepAlive(keepAliveIntervalSeconds: 5)
.SetAutomaticReconnect(autoReconnectIntervalSeconds: 5);
ws.OnConnected += async () =>
{
// Notify users the connection was established.
Console.WriteLine("Connected.");
// Send messages
await ws.SendAsync("hello world!");
};
ws.OnReceived += data =>
{
Console.WriteLine(Encoding.UTF8.GetString(data!.Value.ToArray()));
return Task.CompletedTask;
};
ws.OnKeepAlive += () =>
{
Console.WriteLine("Ping.");
return Task.CompletedTask;
};
ws.OnReconnecting += (ex) =>
{
// Notify users the connection was lost and the client is reconnecting.
Console.WriteLine($"Reconnecting: {ex?.Message}");
return Task.CompletedTask;
};
ws.OnClosed += (ex) =>
{
// Notify users the connection has been closed.
Console.WriteLine($"Closed: {ex?.Message}");
return Task.CompletedTask;
};
// Connect to the ws and start listening
await ws.StartAsync();
