WebSocket Server

WebSocket Server

The WebSocket server provides real-time event broadcasting for match updates.

Architecture

The WebSocket server runs on a separate port (default: 3002) and broadcasts events to subscribed clients.

Connection

Connect to the WebSocket server:

const ws = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:3002');

Subscribing to Matches

Subscribe to receive events for a specific match:

{
  "type": "subscribe",
  "matchId": "AR-2024-0142"
}

Unsubscribing

Unsubscribe from a match:

{
  "type": "unsubscribe",
  "matchId": "AR-2024-0142"
}
