twspy is a standalone implementation of web sockets for Python, defined by RFC 6455.

  • The websocket class upgrades a regular socket to a web socket. A websocket instance is a single end point of a connection. A websocket instance sends and receives frames (Frame instances) as opposed to bytes (which are sent/received in a regular socket).

  • A Connection instance represents a connection between two end points, based on a websocket instance. A connection handles control frames properly, and sends/receives messages (Message instances, which are higher-level than frames). Messages are automatically converted to frames, and received frames are converted to messages. Fragmented messages (messages consisting of multiple frames) are also supported.
