Raw WebSocket Handler Proxy

Demonstrates raw WebSocket handling using a proxy endpoint pattern for routing connections to actors.

Getting Started

git clone https://github.com/rivet-dev/rivet.git
cd rivet/examples/raw-websocket-handler-proxy
npm install
npm run dev

Features

• Raw WebSocket handlers: Use onWebSocket for low-level WebSocket control and custom protocols
• Proxy endpoint pattern: Route WebSocket connections through a proxy endpoint to actors
• Connection management: Track WebSocket connections with state and broadcasting
• Real-time chat: Message broadcasting with user presence and chat history
• Persistent state: Messages and user data automatically saved in actor state

Implementation

This example demonstrates routing WebSocket connections through a proxy:

• Actor Definition (src/backend/registry.ts): Uses proxy endpoint pattern to route WebSocket connections to actors
