Reactive example

How to connect to server:

final Request request = new Request.Builder()
        .get()
        .url("ws://10.10.0.2:8080/ws")
        .build();
final Disposable disposable = new RxWebSockets(new OkHttpClient(), request)
        .webSocketObservable()
        .subscribe(rxEvent -> System.out.println("Event: " + rxEvent.toString()));
Thread.sleep(10000);
disposable.dispose();

Send message on connected:

final Subscription subscription = new RxWebSockets(newWebSocket, request)
        .webSocketObservable()
        .subscribe(new Action1<RxEvent>() {
            @Override
            public void call(RxEvent rxEvent) {
                if (rxEvent instanceof RxEventConnected) {
                    Observable.just("response")
                            .compose(RxMoreObservables.sendMessage((RxEventConnected) rxEvent))
                            .subscribe();
                }
            }
        });
Thread.sleep(1000);
subscription.unsubscribe();
