Actix supports WebSockets out-of-the-box. It is possible to convert a request's `Payload`
|
|
to a stream of [*ws::Message*](../../actix-web/actix_web/ws/enum.Message.html) with
|
|
a [*ws::WsStream*](../../actix-web/actix_web/ws/struct.WsStream.html) and then use stream
|
|
combinators to handle actual messages, but it is simpler to handle websocket communications
|
|
with an http actor.

|
The following is an example of a simple websocket echo server:
