Add support for websockets #7

Closed Chilinot closed 8 years ago

Chilinot commented 8 years ago

Add support for websockets in the MUD, this will allow webbrowsers and other stuff to connect to the server and play the game.

Just read trough some of the protocol specifications. Turns out that each sent frame contains a lot of annoying data.

I think we need to re-factor the server side to actually use websockets instead of just ignoring the unneeded part of the WebSocket protocol.

Maybe this could be useful: http://java-websocket.org/

To get native java support we would need to use Java EE7 :/

Update!

Node.js has support for the normal net sockets. No need to do horrible WebSocket stuff.

I think having propper websocket support would imply a complete serverside rewrite.

Nice! Marking this issue as nonfix :)
