Haskell Websocket Client?

Question

I see many libraries and examples for writing websockets servers in Haskell, but what about clients? Are there libraries for this?

Answer 1

Websockets package supports client applications

http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/websockets/0.7.0.0/doc/html/Network-WebSockets.html#g:12

See an example:

https://github.com/jaspervdj/websockets/blob/master/example/client.hs

Answer 2

The websockets package contains the websocket client as well. After starting a connection with connect you write the client code in the same way as for the server using the websockets monad.

Answer 3

I would make a client using client websites. For a good library see: https://code.google.com/p/jquery-websocket/
