Description: ## A Simple Websocket Server written in Python
        
        - RFC 6455 (All latest browsers)
        - TLS/SSL out of the box
        - Passes Autobahns Websocket Testsuite
        - Support for Python 2 and 3
        
        #### Installation
        
        You can install SimpleWebSocketServer by running the following command...
        
        `sudo pip install git+https://github.com/dpallot/simple-websocket-server.git`
        
        Or by downloading the repository and running `sudo python setup.py install`.  
        Installation via pip is suggested.
        
        #### Echo Server Example
        `````python
        from SimpleWebSocketServer import SimpleWebSocketServer, WebSocket
        
        class SimpleEcho(WebSocket):
        
            def handleMessage(self):
                # echo message back to client
                self.sendMessage(self.data)
        
            def handleConnected(self):
                print self.address, 'connected'
        
            def handleClose(self):
                print self.address, 'closed'
        
        server = SimpleWebSocketServer('', 8000, SimpleEcho)
        server.serveforever()
        `````
        
        Open *websocket.html* and connect to the server.
        
        #### Chat Server Example
        `````python
        from SimpleWebSocketServer import SimpleWebSocketServer, WebSocket
        
        clients = []
        class SimpleChat(WebSocket):
        
            def handleMessage(self):
               for client in clients:
                  if client != self:
                     client.sendMessage(self.address[0] + u' - ' + self.data)
        
            def handleConnected(self):
               print self.address, 'connected'
               for client in clients:
                  client.sendMessage(self.address[0] + u' - connected')
               clients.append(self)
        
            def handleClose(self):
               clients.remove(self)
               print self.address, 'closed'
               for client in clients:
                  client.sendMessage(self.address[0] + u' - disconnected')
        
        server = SimpleWebSocketServer('', 8000, SimpleChat)
        server.serveforever()
        `````
        Open multiple *websocket.html* and connect to the server.
        
        #### Want to get up and running faster?
        
        There is an example which provides a simple echo and chat server
        
        Echo Server
        
            python SimpleExampleServer.py --example echo
        
        Chat Server (open up multiple *websocket.html* files)
        
            python SimpleExampleServer.py --example chat
        
        
        #### TLS/SSL Example
        
        1) Generate a certificate with key
        
            openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -nodes -out cert.pem -keyout cert.pem
        
        2) Run the secure TSL/SSL server (in this case the cert.pem file is in the same directory)
        
            python SimpleExampleServer.py --example chat --ssl 1 --cert ./cert.pem
        
        3) Offer the certificate to the browser by serving *websocket.html* through https.
        The HTTPS server will look for cert.pem in the local directory.
        Ensure the *websocket.html* is also in the same directory to where the server is run.
        
            sudo python SimpleHTTPSServer.py
        
        4) Open a web browser to: *https://localhost:443/websocket.html*
        
        5) Change *ws://localhost:8000/* to *wss://localhost:8000* and click connect.
        
        Note: if you are having problems connecting, ensure that the certificate is added in your browser against the exception *https://localhost:8000* or whatever host:port pair you want to connect to.
        
        #### For the Programmers
        
        handleConnected: called when handshake is complete
         - self.address: TCP address port tuple of the endpoint
        
        handleClose: called when the endpoint is closed or there is an error
        
        handleMessage: gets called when there is an incoming message from the client endpoint
         - self.opcode: the WebSocket frame type (STREAM, TEXT, BINARY)
         - self.data: bytearray (BINARY frame) or unicode string payload (TEXT frame)  
         - self.request: HTTP details from the WebSocket handshake (refer to BaseHTTPRequestHandler)
        
        sendMessage: send some text or binary data to the client endpoint
         - sending data as a unicode object will send a TEXT frame
         - sending data as a bytearray object will send a BINARY frame
        
        sendClose: send close frame to endpoint
