WebSocket.onping

A handler for a WebSocket connection ping event. For multiple, simultaneous event handlers, use WebSocket.addEventListener().

Example

A k6 script that initiates a WebSocket connection and sets up a handler for the ping event.

import { WebSocket } from 'k6/experimental/websockets';

export default function () {
  const ws = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:10000');

  ws.onping = () => {
    console.log('A ping happened!');
  };
}

The preceding example uses a WebSocket echo server, which you can run with the following command:

$ docker run --detach --rm --name ws-echo-server -p 10000:8080 jmalloc/echo-server
