I would like to write a console client for mtgox with minimal dependencies, no perl, python, ruby etc. It seems the old HTTP API interface is depricated(?) so I would like to use the websocket interface. I can connect to websocket.mtgox.com:80 using telnet, send the following...
Code:
GET /mtgox HTTP/1.1
Host: websocket.mtgox.com
Connection: Upgrade
Upgrade: websocket
Sec-WebSocket-Key: dGhlIHNhbXBsZSBub25jZQ==
Sec-WebSocket-Protocol: mtgox
Sec-WebSocket-Version: 13
Host: websocket.mtgox.com
Connection: Upgrade
Upgrade: websocket
Sec-WebSocket-Key: dGhlIHNhbXBsZSBub25jZQ==
Sec-WebSocket-Protocol: mtgox
Sec-WebSocket-Version: 13
...and it handshakes fine and I get a stream of blurb, which is just what I want.
I would very much like to connect over SSL, I should be able to do that using openssl's s_client, which AFAIK is a bit like an ssl enabled telnet. I can connect and all the ssl stuff seems to be working, but when I send the same HTTP, and the extra cr, I get nothing back. I'm obviously missing something, I'm new to the whole websocket thing. I can also see non-ASCII characters in the stream I get using telnet, I suspect that may be related.
Thanks in advance for any ideas
