Release is built on my laptop using autorelease.sh script. Not tested at all (even on Linux), releasing just because of enough mini-features accumulated.

New features:

  • UDP multicast options
  • foreachmsg: overlay - run specifier (i.e. connect somewhere or execute a program) on each WebSocket message instead of on each WebSocket connection.
  • Various minor options like --max-messages or zero-length message handling.
  • Low-level Websocket features: --just-generate-key and --just-generate-accept options which help generating HTTP headers for WebSockets. ws-lowlevel-server: and ws-lowlevel-client: overlays to use expose WebSocket's data encoder/decoder without HTTP part.
  • Basic http:// client with arbitrary method, uri and so on.
  • Delay for autoreconnect: overlay
  • More pre-built release assets

It is not actual Websocat 2.0, as planned [disruptive] internal changes are not finished and by default it works like good old Websocat 1.0.

As usual, it may be worth to try older builds in case of problems.
