Schuko

WebSockets extension cord

Schuko is a little server build on Node.js and the 'ws' module just to connect two WebSockets between them.

To use it, just launch the server and open two WebSockets pointing to it with the same path, that will be used as id. Data will be buffered if second WebSocket is still not connected. If no "path-id" is provided, it will generate one and return a 302 redirection response. After the connection is established, this "path-id" can be reused again if necessary to create another interconnection. Additionally, you can identify the peers and make them to keep listening connections using the URL query string as peer ID.

This server is based on code from DataChannel-polyfill backend server.

You can connect to an instance of Schuko at wss://schuko.herokuapp.com/.
