Can it support background mode? about swiftwebsocket HOT 5 CLOSED

Yes. As long as your application has permission to use the network in the background, such as a VoIP app.

I've enabled all background modes.
Also i've set service of WebSocket instance to .Background.
But as soon as i get to background mode, after about 30 seconds websocket closes the connection.

It's sounds like iOS is still killing the connection when your app goes to the background. SwiftWebSocket does supports long running connections, so there must be a setting that is being missed. You may want to ask on https://forums.developer.apple.com

Thanks,

Seems like iOS will kill it anyway, it can just give some seconds to finish your networking...

Hope someone there knows how to workaround it somehow.

As this is not your lib problem, i'm closing the issue. Thank you for quick responses.
