Duplicate Python websockets

See more WebSocket Examples

Demonstrates how to duplicate the following Python client-side websocket snippet:
async with websockets.connect('ws://192.168.1.35/websocket') as websocket:
await websocket.send("http.controller_login:username=xxx&password=xxxxx")
response = await websocket.recv()

    // Also, after connecting, a GET request is sent to the /websocket endpoint.
    // In summary, the websockets.connect function is establishing the connection and it sends a GET request.
