twspy is a standalone implementation of web sockets for Python.

  • The websocket.WebSocket class upgrades a regular socket to a web socket.
  • message.py contains classes that abstract messages sent over the socket. Sent messages are automatically converted to frames, and received frames are converted to messages. Fragmented messages are also supported.
  • The server.Server class can be used to support multiple clients to open a web socket simultaneously in different threads, which is often desirable in web-based applications.
