Implement own client using ttyd only on server side

[sreisich]

Is there a way to implement ttyd's client side in my own application? I mean, implement xterm.js in my own application that connects to the websocket provided by ttyd?
What would the vanilla js code look like?

If this is technically possible, I would really like to sponsor this project. Please let me know what you think.

Sure, as long as you implement ttyd's websocket protocol, it's pretty simple.

ttyd/html/src/components/terminal/xterm/index.ts

Lines 25 to 36 in 40e79c7

	enum Command {
	// server side
	OUTPUT = '0',
	SET_WINDOW_TITLE = '1',
	SET_PREFERENCES = '2',
	// client side
	INPUT = '0',
	RESIZE_TERMINAL = '1',
	PAUSE = '2',
	RESUME = '3',
	}

Glad to hear that, thanks.
If you like, I would like to sponsor a fully working vanilla javascript example. Would you be open to such an offer? I mean, I'm not a javascript pro and you know how to do it... I would like to sponsor an example index.html with vanilla js showing how an external page could connect to the ttyd socket. If you like, you can include this example here in the project, or anywhere, as open source code. Others might be interested in it too.
If you are interested, let me know how I can contact you privately to talk about sponsoring...
