Unfortunately I don't have time to support this project anymore. Also the websocket protocol has changed in the meantime, so it won't work with browser and other modern implementations.

Please take a look at the free (but closed) 3rd party component:

Websockets and Socket.io for Delphi
|
|
|
|
See below for an event driven async example of an socket.io server and client:
|
|
```delphi
|
|
uses
|
|

|
|
|
|
var
|

|
|
C_CLIENT_EVENT = 'CLIENT_TO_SERVER_EVENT_TEST';
|
|
C_SERVER_EVENT = 'SERVER_TO_CLIENT_EVENT_TEST';
|
|
|
|
procedure ShowMessageInMainthread(const aMsg: string) ;
|
|
begin
|
|
TThread.Synchronize(nil,
|
|
procedure
|
|
begin
|
|
ShowMessage(aMsg);
|
|
end);
|
|
end;
|
|
|
|
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
|
|
begin
|
|
server := TIdWebsocketServer.Create(Self);
|
|
server.DefaultPort := 12345;
|
|
server.SocketIO.OnEvent(C_CLIENT_EVENT,
|
|
procedure(const ASocket: ISocketIOContext; const aArgument: TSuperArray; const aCallback: ISocketIOCallback)
|
|
begin
|
|
//show request (threadsafe)
|
|
ShowMessageInMainthread('REQUEST: ' + aArgument[0].AsJSon);
|
|
//send callback (only if specified!)
|
|

|

aCallback.SendResponse( SO(['succes', True]).AsJSon );
|
|
end);

|

client.Port := 12345;
|

client.Host := 'localhost';
|

client.SocketIOCompatible := True;
|
|
client.SocketIO.OnEvent(C_SERVER_EVENT,
|
|
procedure(const ASocket: ISocketIOContext; const aArgument: TSuperArray; const aCallback: ISocketIOCallback)
|
|
begin
|

|
|
//server wants a response?
|
|
if aCallback <> nil then
|
|
aCallback.SendResponse('thank for the push!');
|
|
end);
|
|
client.Connect;
|
|
client.SocketIO.Emit(C_CLIENT_EVENT, SO([ 'request', 'some data']),
|
|
//provide callback
|
|
procedure(const ASocket: ISocketIOContext; const aJSON: ISuperObject; const aCallback: ISocketIOCallback)
|
|
begin
|
|
//show response (threadsafe)
|
|
ShowMessageInMainthread('RESPONSE: ' + aJSON.AsJSon);
|
|
end);
|
|
|
|
//start timer so server pushes (!) data to all clients
|
|
Timer1.Interval := 5 * 1000; //5s
|
|
Timer1.Enabled := True;
|
|
end;
|
|
|
|
procedure TForm1.Timer1Timer(Sender: TObject);
|
|
begin
|
|

|
|
server.SocketIO.EmitEventToAll(C_SERVER_EVENT, SO(['data', 'pushed from server']),
|
