        ================
        
        `gevent-websocket`_ is a WebSocket library for the gevent_ networking library.
        
        Features include:
        
        - Integration on both socket level or using an abstract interface.
        - RPC and PubSub framework using `WAMP`_ (WebSocket Application
          Messaging Protocol).
        - Easily extendible using a simple WebSocket protocol plugin API
        
        
        ::
        
            from geventwebsocket import WebSocketServer, WebSocketApplication, Resource
        
            class EchoApplication(WebSocketApplication):
                def on_open(self):
                    print "Connection opened"
        
                def on_message(self, message):
                    self.ws.send(message)
        
                def on_close(self, reason):
                    print reason
        
            WebSocketServer(
                ('', 8000),
                Resource({'/': EchoApplication})
            ).serve_forever()
        
        or a low level implementation::
        
            from gevent import pywsgi
            from geventwebsocket.handler import WebSocketHandler
        
            def websocket_app(environ, start_response):
                if environ["PATH_INFO"] == '/echo':
                    ws = environ["wsgi.websocket"]
                    message = ws.receive()
                    ws.send(message)
        
            server = pywsgi.WSGIServer(("", 8000), websocket_app,
                handler_class=WebSocketHandler)
            server.serve_forever()
        
        More examples can be found in the ``examples`` directory. Hopefully more
        documentation will be available soon.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        The easiest way to install gevent-websocket is directly from PyPi_ using pip or
        setuptools by running the commands below::
        
            $ pip install gevent-websocket
        
        
        Gunicorn Worker
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        Using Gunicorn it is even more easy to start a server. Only the
        `websocket_app` from the previous example is required to start the server.
        Start Gunicorn using the following command and worker class to enable WebSocket
        funtionality for the application.
        
        ::
        
            gunicorn -k "geventwebsocket.gunicorn.workers.GeventWebSocketWorker" wsgi:websocket_app
        
        Performance
        ^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        `gevent-websocket`_ is pretty fast, but can be accelerated further by
        installing `wsaccel <https://github.com/methane/wsaccel>`_ and `ujson` or `simplejson`::
        
            $ pip install wsaccel ujson
        
        `gevent-websocket`_ automatically detects ``wsaccell`` and uses the Cython
        implementation for UTF8 validation and later also frame masking and
        demasking.
