Websocket

💬 Inspect Websockets

Flocon doesn’t stop at HTTP — it also captures all WebSocket communications made by your Android app.
This allows you to inspect real-time data exchanges between your app and the server with full visibility.

For each WebSocket connection, you can inspect:

• Connection URL
• Sent and received frames (text, binary, ping/pong)
• Timestamps and message order
• Payloads
• Closes

With this feature, you can:

• Debug real-time features like chat, live feeds, or multiplayer updates
• Verify the exact content of messages exchanged
• Diagnose disconnection or synchronization issues

With OkHttp3 (android only)

Flocon-Okhttp-Interceptor has built-in websocket methods (⚠️ it's not possible through interceptors ⚠️)

To log outgoing messages

webSocket.sendWithFlocon("\"$text\"") // extension method that log to Flocon and performs the send

To log incoming messages

val request = Request.Builder()
       .url("wss://.......")
       .build()
val listener = object : WebSocketListener() {
      // your listener
}

webSocket = client.newWebSocket(
      request,
      listener.listenWithFlocon(id = "wss://......."), // extension method that wraps an existing WebSocketListener
    )
}

🧰 Manually (kotlin multi platform compatible)

If you are using other websockets libs than okhttp, you can easily forward events to FloconWebSocket

To log outgoing messages

val message = "hello"

webSocket.send(message)

floconLogWebSocketEvent(
    FloconWebSocketEvent(
        websocketUrl = "ws://...",
        event = FloconWebSocketEvent.Event.SendMessage,
        message = message,
    )
)

To log incoming messages

myCustomWebSocket.onReceived {
    floconLogWebSocketEvent(
        FloconWebSocketEvent(
        websocketUrl = "ws://..."
        event = FloconWebSocketEvent.Event.ReceiveMessage,
        message = it,
    )
    // handle your message
)
