For when you don't want to write another websocket server.

The Socketeer requires no configuration. Once it's installed, all you have to do is run it. You can configure its port and its default line-ending with command-line options.

$ socketeer -http :6060 -line "\r\n"

It supports two modes of sending data to the remote socket: byte-oriented and line-oriented.

ws://socketeer:6060/bytes?host=example.com&port=12345

The second is line-oriented. This supports an optional lineEnding argument to override the default set at launch. Each frame sent over the websocket will have the line ending appended to it when sent to the remote host.

ws://socketeer:6060/lines?host=example.com&port=54321&lineEnding=%0A

If host or port are missing, or there is a problem parsing the query string, the websocket will be closed with code 4000. If the connection to the remote host fails, the websocket will be closed with code 4001.
