WebSocket example code doesn't work

[cardinal-II]

I can connect to the WebSocket server with clients in a terminal and with index.html in a browser. But I can't send or receive messages. In the terminal with the running Websocket server, every minute I see:
2023-10-14 18:22:40 | 4.194 MB | Agent 127.0.0.1:58920 idles

Nothing more.
In the browser:

Connect to ws://127.0.0.1:9001
WebSocket.onopen() called

How to make it work?

Any information in the webdev console of the browser?

Hello, I have the same issue. Running tcpdump on the server, I see that the message the client sends is received on the server but it does not seem to go any further than that.

It seems like the onConnect is never called. The onIdle runs every 60 seconds though with the correct agent ip and port

I have added a line in WebSocketServer.php in the idle method like so:
$this->sendMessageToAllClients($agent->server(), 'Hello idle agent');

And this works. The client receives it.

If anyone happens to stumble across this, the workaround is the following. In file fatfree-core/cli/ws.php do the following changes
Line 50 remove the events from the protected and declare it public
protected $addr, $ctx, $wait, $sockets, $protocol, $agents=[]; //$events=[]; public $events=[];
Then line 324 at the definition of the class Agent
protected //$server, $id, $socket, $flag, $verb, $uri, $headers; public $server;
Remove the $server from the protected and make it public. I understand that this might be overwritten if I update Fat Free (don't really understand the implications of my change though ), but it works
