Notice

This documentation is not complete and can change anytime.

Interface

All messages between client and server are exchanged via websockets and are UTF-8 encoded strings. Each message starts with an ID. The ID is an integer and is directly preprended to the message content. The content of a message is simply an array of bytes, meaning it can be text or whatever else you want it to be.

An example message could look like this:

2probe

2 is the message ID and probe is the message content.

The message content could also be JSON for example:

42["chat",{"id":123,"message":"Hello World!"}]

42 is the message ID and

["chat",{"id":123,"message":"Hello World!"}]

is the message content.

This documentation will be categorized by message IDs.
