Protocol

Queopardy includes a text-based WebSocket server for remote buzzers to connect to.

Sender	Syntax	Description
Client	hello <name...>	Connect as player name. If the player exists and is not already controlled by another client, you will get control of it. If it doesn't exist and the game is not started yet, it is created and assigned to you. Otherwise you receive an error.
Server	ok <message...>	Something succeeded. Mostly for debugging.
Server	error <message...>	Something went wrong. Mostly for debugging.
Server	welcome	Response to a successful hello command.
Client	color <r> <g> <b>	Set your player color (r, g, b are unsigned byte values).
Client	nextColor	Automatically get the next free pre-defined color
Server	question open <question...>	A question has been selected. Everything after open is the question text. Image questions only send <image>.
Server	buzzer open	It is now allowed to buzz.
Client	buzz	Try to buzz.
Server	buzzer closed <name...>	Someone buzzed, so you can no longer buzz yourself.
Server	buzzer closed	The buzzer was closed because the question was cancelled.
