WebSocket Message Frame (JSON)

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "eth_blockNumber",
  "params": []
}

Browser JavaScript Client Script

const ws = new WebSocket("wss://echo.websocket.events");

ws.onopen = () => {
  console.log("Connected to WebSocket");
  ws.send("{  \"jsonrpc\": \"2.0\",  \"id\": 1,  \"method\": \"eth_blockNumber\",  \"params\": []}");
};

ws.onmessage = (event) => {
  console.log("Message received:", JSON.parse(event.data));
};

ws.onerror = (err) => console.error("WebSocket error:", err);
ws.onclose = () => console.log("WebSocket closed");
