Create a simple websocket server and access the information by laravel

Welcome

This project is made for

Creating a simple websocket serevr so you can send and recieve messages via the ws library in nodejs without having to use pusher or use events

Why didn't you use pusher or websocket by beyondcode

the reason being that i simply want a simple websocket server easy to setup and easy to use without the need of actually setting up a full websocket server, which means i can use this simple websocket to connect to lets say: a discord bot, another website, python process.

How do i set it up for my own project:

1. Download all files in this repo
2. Put everything in the following structure: *: WebsocketMan.php in app folder *: WebsocketServer Folder in the app folder
3. open composer.json for your laravel project put this inside "autoload" key: *: , "files": [ "app/WebsocketMan.php" ]
4. save the composer.json file and run this command: composer dump-autoload
5. put this in your ENV file:

WEBSOCKET_LOOKOUT_PORT=3000
WEBSOCKET_LOOKOUT=localhost
WEBSOCKET_PORT=6001

ENV Variables Definition:

WEBSOCKET_LOOKOUT_PORT the port which the express.js server will run in WEBSOCKET_LOOKOUT the host which the express.js server will run in WEBSOCKET_PORT the port which the websocket server will run in

How do i run it?:

1. open the terminal and go to app/WebsockerServer
2. enter this command: node main.js
3. change the env variables
4. call this function to get the data from the websocket client: websocketcall("INFO"), it might return: NO_FEEDBACK(the client did not submit data on time or did not submit at all) or return the feedback of the client
