Websocket Sample application

(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.) This example will shows how to set up and communicate over a websocket.

How to Use Example

Hardware Required

This example can be executed on any ESP32 board, the only required interface is WiFi and connection to internet or a local server.

Configure the project

• Open the project configuration menu (idf.py menuconfig)
• Configure Wi-Fi or Ethernet under "Example Connection Configuration" menu. See "Establishing Wi-Fi or Ethernet Connection" section in examples/protocols/README.md for more details.
• Configure the websocket endpoint URI under "Example Configuration", if "WEBSOCKET_URI_FROM_STDIN" is selected then the example application will connect to the URI it reads from stdin (used for testing)

Build and Flash

Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:

idf.py -p PORT flash monitor

(To exit the serial monitor, type Ctrl-].)

See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.
