The JSON-API can't _really_ use regular http requests because this server then has to do a lot of multi-threading nonsense. For the sake of simplicity for myself and others that try to write their own FC compliant servers: the rtc server(for now) only takes in websocket requests, and attemptes to discern servers from users connections for event handling
RTC WebSocket Server
This server is to be used only if the json-api server is compiled with the rtc feature.
If you run this server without that feature in the json-api then this will never get updates from the API and thus be completely 100% useless.
Configuration
This server runs on port 5648 and is served via the ws:// protocol.
It is recommended that admins put this behind some a reverse proxy for secure web-sockets wss:// and to remove the need for specifying the port number for clients.
Command line flags
-p --port : Defaults to 5648 (suggested)
