WebSocket extension type

The WebSocket object provides the API for creating and managing a WebSocket connection to a server, as well as for sending and receiving data on the connection.

To construct a WebSocket, use the WebSocket() constructor.

Properties

binaryType BinaryType
The WebSocket.binaryType property controls the type of binary data being received over the WebSocket connection.
getter/setter pair
bufferedAmount int
The WebSocket.bufferedAmount read-only property returns the number of bytes of data that have been queued using calls to send() but not yet transmitted to the network. This value resets to zero once all queued data has been sent. This value does not reset to zero when the connection is closed; if you keep calling send(), this will continue to climb.
no setter
extensions String
The WebSocket.extensions read-only property returns the extensions selected by the server. This is currently only the empty string or a list of extensions as negotiated by the connection.
no setter
hashCode int
The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited

Methods

add(JSAny? any) JSAny

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this + any in JavaScript.
addEventListener(String type, EventListener? callback, [JSAny options]) → void
The addEventListener() method of the EventTarget interface sets up a function that will be called whenever the specified event is delivered to the target.
inherited
and(JSAny? any) JSAny?

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this && any in JavaScript.
callMethod<R extends JSAny?>(JSAny method, [JSAny? arg1, JSAny? arg2, JSAny? arg3, JSAny? arg4]) → R

Available on JSObject, provided by the JSObjectUnsafeUtilExtension extension

Calls method on this JSObject with up to four arguments.
callMethodVarArgs<R extends JSAny?>(JSAny method, [List<JSAny?>? arguments]) → R

Available on JSObject, provided by the JSObjectUnsafeUtilExtension extension

Calls method on this JSObject with a variable number of arguments.
close([int code, String reason]) → void
The WebSocket.close() method closes the WebSocket connection or connection attempt, if any. If the connection is already CLOSED, this method does nothing.
dartify() Object?

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyUtilityExtension extension

Converts a JavaScript value to the Dart equivalent if possible.
delete(JSAny property) JSBoolean

Available on JSObject, provided by the JSObjectUnsafeUtilExtension extension

Deletes the property with key property from this JSObject.
dispatchEvent(Event event) bool
The dispatchEvent() method of the EventTarget sends an Event to the object, (synchronously) invoking the affected event listeners in the appropriate order. The normal event processing rules (including the capturing and optional bubbling phase) also apply to events dispatched manually with dispatchEvent().
inherited
divide(JSAny? any) JSAny

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this / any in JavaScript.
equals(JSAny? any) JSBoolean

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this == any in JavaScript.
exponentiate(JSAny? any) JSAny

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this ** any in JavaScript.
getProperty<R extends JSAny?>(JSAny property) → R

Available on JSObject, provided by the JSObjectUnsafeUtilExtension extension

The value of the property key property of this JSObject.
greaterThan(JSAny? any) JSBoolean

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this > any in JavaScript.
greaterThanOrEqualTo(JSAny? any) JSBoolean

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this >= any in JavaScript.
has(String property) bool

Available on JSObject, provided by the JSObjectUnsafeUtilExtension extension

Shorthand helper for hasProperty to check whether this JSObject contains the property key property, but takes and returns a Dart value.
hasProperty(JSAny property) JSBoolean

Available on JSObject, provided by the JSObjectUnsafeUtilExtension extension

Whether or not this JSObject contains the property key property.
instanceof(JSFunction constructor) bool

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyUtilityExtension extension

Whether this JSAny? is an instanceof constructor.
instanceOfString(String constructorName) bool

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyUtilityExtension extension

Whether this JSAny? is an instanceof the constructor that is defined by constructorName, which is looked up in the globalContext.

The result of this || any in JavaScript.
removeEventListener(String type, EventListener? callback, [JSAny options]) → void
The removeEventListener() method of the EventTarget interface removes an event listener previously registered with EventTarget.addEventListener from the target. The event listener to be removed is identified using a combination of the event type, the event listener function itself, and various optional options that may affect the matching process; see Matching event listeners for removal.
inherited
send(JSAny data) → void
The WebSocket.send() method enqueues the specified data to be transmitted to the server over the WebSocket connection, increasing the value of bufferedAmount by the number of bytes needed to contain the data. If the data can't be sent (for example, because it needs to be buffered but the buffer is full), the socket is closed automatically. The browser will throw an exception if you call send() when the connection is in the CONNECTING state. If you call send() when the connection is in the CLOSING or CLOSED states, the browser will silently discard the data.
