WebSocket Client with embedded Python

This is a demo to make use of a simple WebSocket Client with Embedded Python in IRIS.

To continue my series of WebSocket Client I have added an example written in Python.
The most impressive experience was how easy the writing and testing of the client was
which happened total offline from IRIS.
Embedding, running and feeding the client with data from IRIS was also incredibly simple.

Prerequisites

Make sure you have git and Docker desktop installed.

Installation

Clone/git pull this repo into any local directory

$ git clone https://github.com/rcemper/try_embedded_python  

Open the terminal in this directory and run:

$ docker-compose build

this may take some time to complete

Run the IRIS container with this project:

$ docker-compose up -d

How to Test it

• Run an Iris Session in Docker
• Select your WebSocket Echo Server
• Enter the text you want to send or generate it
• Send it and see the result

$ docker-compose exec iris iris session iris "##class(rccpy.WSockPy).Run()"
