Arguments

The websocket environment returned from createContext or create_server.

timeout

server

Future versions of this package will drop the context terminology, replacing it with server. The context argument is maintained in this package version for backwards compatibility with previous package versions.

Details

Websocket events are placed in a queue and are serviced on a first-come, first-served basis by the service function. This function is normally placed in a loop. The function times out after the specified interval if events do not occur.
