Hi @vinothkrstatiq

esp_websocket_client has been moved to an external repository, the example is located here https://github.com/espressif/esp-protocols/tree/master/components/esp_websocket_client/examples

Please check the documentation on Removed or deprecated components

Hi @david-cermak , Thanks for the answer .can you also update me that given example tested and working from your end https://github.com/espressif/esp-protocols/blob/master/components/esp_websocket_client/examples/main/websocket_example.c

[david-cermak]

Yes, this example is tested and works as expected, not only on my end, but also in esp-protocols's CI infrastructure: https://github.com/espressif/esp-protocols/runs/6272732011?check_suite_focus=true#step:7:104

David, do you think that a full hole punch p2p example could be created by espressif running for esp32 X app X cloud usage, this should be extreme important to next generation non cloud demand devices...

@david-cermak

A question regarding component version in idf_component.yml. (Sorry, this is off-topic)

What is the menaing of "~" and "^" before the version? Are they the same meaning? means >= or == ? e.g. component: "~1.0.0" component: "^1.0.0"

full hole punch p2p example could be created by espressif

@filzek Yes, please create a new feature request, this sounds interesting and could be helpful for more users.

What is the menaing of "~" and "^" before the version?

@AxelLin This notation is used to restrict the component to a specific MAJOR (^) or MINOR (~) version, for example:

• ~1.2.0 means >=1.2.0,<1.3.0 (or ~1.2)
• ^1.0.0 means >=1.0.0,<2.0.0 (or ^1.0 or ^1)
