Listening on more than one hostname or IP address

Hello,

I tried the following on windows 10 and ran as administrator:

server = new WatsonWsServer("127.0.0.1+host1", 8081, false);

But this does not work. Could you share an example of listening on more than one host/ip ?

Thank you very much, Jules

Just uploaded a new version containing a constructor that supports multiple listener prefixes. Please re-open if any issues!

NuGet: https://www.nuget.org/packages/WatsonWebsocket/2.3.2 Commit: https://github.com/jchristn/WatsonWebsocket/commit/7944cfbdd5fa4af291cdb8369897cf23b1916ca3

List<string> hostnames = new List<string>
{
  "192.168.1.163",
  "127.0.0.1"
};

WatsonWsServer server = new WatsonWsServer(hostnames, 8000, false);

Cheers, Joel

Hi @SieBrum

Does this mean that the README.md is incorrect?

I may have misinterpreted the question, and this certainly is a way to achieve the same goal.

1. If you want to be explicit about on which prefixes you listen, the library will need to be modified. The substrate under the library supports listening on “localhost:8000”, “192.168.1.143:8000”, etc, when those prefixes are discrete, but the library does not currently
2. You absolutely can set your listener hostname to *, +, or 0.0.0.0 (OS dependent) to listen on anything. I do this all the time, just generally not in production, because it requires running as administrator.
