Libwebsockets is a simple-to-use, MIT-license, pure C library providing client and server
|

for **http/1**, **http/2**, **websockets**, **MQTT** and other protocols in a security-minded,
|

lightweight, configurable, scalable and flexible way. It's easy to build and
|
||||
cross-build via cmake and is suitable for tasks from embedded RTOS through mass

## v4.1.0-rc1 is available for testing
|
||||
|
||||
If you are interested in consuming released versions, please take a moment to test this
|
||||
release candidate and report any bugs so that the release can have improved quality.
|
||||
|
||||
See the [changelog](https://libwebsockets.org/git/libwebsockets/tree/changelog), summary
|
||||
|
||||
- NEW: travis / appveyor / bintray are replaced by Sai
|
||||
https://libwebsockets.org/sai/ which for lws currently does 167 builds per
|
||||
git push on 16 platforms, all self-hosted. The homebrew bash scripts used
|
||||
to select Minimal examples are replaced by CTest. Platforms currently
|
||||
include Fedora/AMD/GCC, Windows/AMD/mingw32, Windows/AMD/mingw64, Android/
|
||||
aarch64/LLVM, esp-idf (on WROVER-KIT and HELTEC physical boards), Fedora/
|
||||
RISCV (on QEMU)/GCC, CentOS8/AMD/GCC, Gentoo/AMD/GCC, Bionic/AMD/GCC,
|
||||
Linkit 7697, Focal/AMD/GCC, Windows (on QEMU)/AMD/MSVC,
|
||||
Focal/aarch64-RPI4/GCC, iOS/aarch64/LLVM and OSX/AMD/LLVM.
|
||||
|
||||
- NEW: The single CMakeLists.txt has been refactored and modernized into smaller
|
||||
CMakeLists.txt in the subdirectory along with the code that is being managed
|
||||
for build by it. Build options are still listed in the top level as before
|
||||
but the new way is much more maintainable.
|
||||
|
||||
- NEW: Captive Portal Detection. Lws can determine if the active default
|
||||
route is able to connect to the internet, or is in a captive portal type
|
||||
situation, by trying to connect to a remote server that will respond in an
|
||||
unusual way, like provide a 204.
|
||||
|
||||
- NEW: Secure streams: Support system trust store if it exists
|
||||
Build on Windows
|
||||
Support lws raw socket protocol in SS
|
||||
Support Unix Domain Socket transport
|
||||
|
||||
- NEW: Windows: Support Unix Domain Sockets same as other platforms
|
||||
|
||||
- NEW: Windows: Build using native pthreads, async dns, ipv6 on MSVC
|
||||
|
||||
- NEW: lws_struct: BLOB support
|
||||
|
||||
- NEW: lws_sul: Now provides two sorted timer domains, a default one as
|
||||
before, and another whose scheduled events are capable to wake the system from suspend
|
||||
|
||||
- NEW: System Message Distribution: lws_smd provides a very lightweight way
|
||||
to pass short messages between subsystems both in RTOS type case where the
|
||||
subsystems are all on the lws event loop, and in the case participants are in
|
||||
different processes, using Secure Streams proxying. Participants register a bitmap
|
||||
of message classes they care about; if no particpant cares about a particular message,
|
||||
it is rejected at allocation time for the sender, making it cheap to provide messages
|
||||
speculatively. See lib/system/smd/README.md for full details.
|
||||
|
||||
- NEW: lws_drivers: wrappers for SDK driver abstractions (or actual drivers)
|
||||
See lib/drivers/README.md, example implementations
|
||||
minimal-examples/embedded/esp32/esp-wrover-kit
|
||||
- generic gpio
|
||||
- generic LED (by name) lib/drivers/led/README.md
|
||||
- generic PWM, sophisticated interpolated table
|
||||
sequencers with crossfade
|
||||
- generic button (by name), with debounce and press classification
|
||||
emitting rich SMD click, long-click, double-click,
|
||||
down, repeat, up JSON messages
|
||||
lib/drivers/button/README.md
|
||||
- bitbang i2c on generic gpio (hw support can use same
|
||||
abstract API)
|
||||
- bitbang spi on generic gpio (hw support can use same
|
||||
abstract API)
|
||||
- generic display object, can be wired up to controller
|
||||
drivers that hook up by generic i2c or spi,
|
||||
generic backlight PWM sequencing and
|
||||
blanking timer support
|
||||
- generic settings storage: get and set blobs by name
|
||||
- generic network device: netdev abstract class with
|
||||
WIFI / Ethernet implementations
|
||||
using underlying SDK APIs;
|
||||
generic 80211 Scan managements
|
||||
and credentials handling via
|
||||
lws_settings
|
||||
This is the new way to provide embedded platform
|
||||
functionality that was in the past done like
|
||||
esp32-factory. Unlike the old way, the new way has no
|
||||
native apis in it and can be built on other SDK / SoCs
|
||||
the same.
|
||||
|
||||
- NEW: Security-aware JWS JWT (JSON Web Tokens) apis are provided on top of the existing
|
||||
JOSE / JWS apis. All the common algorithms are available along with some
|
||||
high level apis like lws http cookie -> JWT struct -> lws http cookie.
|
||||
|
||||
- REMOVED: esp32-helper and friends used by esp32-factory now lws_drivers
|
||||
exists
|
||||
|
||||
- REMOVED: generic sessions and friends now JWT is provided
|
||||
