Bug#785355: ITP: node-yawl -- yet another web sockets library



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Andrew Kelley <superjoe30@gmail.com>
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-devel@lists.debian.org

* Package name    : node-yawl
  Version         : 1.0.2
  Upstream Author : Andrew Kelley <superjoe30@gmail.com>
* URL             : https://github.com/andrewrk/node-yawl
* License         : Expat
  Programming Lang: _javascript_
  Description     : yet another web sockets library

 yawl is a Node.js module which provides an API to create a web socket server
 and a web socket client. It is RFC 6455 compliant with two exceptions:
 .
 First, it uses Node.js's built in UTF-8 decoding instead of strictly closing
 the connection when decoding errors occur.
 .
 Second, the "payload length" field is limited to 2 to the power of 52 instead
 of 2 to the power of 64.
 .
 yawl uses streams and handles backpressure correctly. It is a pure _javascript_
 implementation.
 .
 Node.js is an event-based server-side _javascript_ engine.
 .
 I plan to maintain this as part of the Debian _javascript_ Maintainers team.
 .
 This is a dependency of groovebasin 1.5.1. Currently groovebasin 1.4.0 is available in jessie.
