A module with a better and standard API exists
The new k6/experimental/websockets API partially implements the WebSockets API living standard.
When possible, we recommend using the new API. It uses a global event loop for consistency with other k6 APIs and better performance.
Send a data string through the connection. You can use JSON.stringify to convert a JSON or JavaScript values to a JSON string.
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
data | string | The data to send. |
