I'm interested in feedback or suggestions for what/how to define a good
websocket API that complements libcurl.
My very simple idea on how it could be added to the API:
1. We add another value to set CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY to (2). If this is used,
and the URL is "http(s)://" then libcurl could "bootstrap" into a websocket
connection.
2. Once it is completed, we could have the application extract the socket (to
have something to wait on) and then use curl_easy_recv() and curl_easy_send()
to receive and send websockets data over that connection.
What would this be missing?
