import websocket
import thread
import time
def on_message(ws, message):
print message
def on_error(ws, error):
print error
def on_close(ws):
print "### closed ###"
def on_open(ws):
def run(*args):
for i in range(3):
time.sleep(1)
ws.send("Hello %d" % i)
time.sleep(1)
ws.close()
print "thread terminating..."
thread.start_new_thread(run, ())
if __name__ == "__main__":
websocket.enableTrace(True)
ws = websocket.WebSocketApp("ws://echo.websocket.org/",
on_message = on_message,
on_error = on_error,
on_close = on_close)
ws.on_open = on_open
ws.run_forever()
