websocket_failure
The websocket_failure event is fired when a WebSocket connection request fails.
This event is normally handled inside http.websocket, but it can still be seen when using http.websocketAsync.
Return Values
- string: The event name.
- string: The URL of the site requested.
- string: An error describing the failure.
Example
Prints an error why the website cannot be contacted:
local myURL = "wss://example.tweaked.cc/not-a-websocket" http.websocketAsync(myURL) local event, url, err repeat event, url, err = os.pullEvent("websocket_failure") until url == myURL print("The URL " .. url .. " could not be reached: " .. err)
