== Run the Websocket Echo Client
The echo client is included in an APEX full installation.
To run the client, open a new shell (Unix, Cygwin) or command prompt (`cmd` on Windows).
Then use the APEX application launcher to start the client.
[IMPORTANT]
.APEX engine needs to run first
====
The example assumes that an APEX engine configured for __produce__ carrier technology Websocket and __JSON__ event protocol is executed first.

|====================
| Unix, Cygwin | Windows
|
[source%nowrap,sh]
----
# $APEX_HOME/bin/apexApps.sh ws-echo [args]
----
|
[source%nowrap,bat]
----
> %APEX_HOME%\bin\apexApps.bat ws-echo [args]
----
|====================
Use the following command line arguments for server and port of the Websocket server.
The port should be the same as configured in the APEX engine.
The server host should be the host on which the APEX engine is running
- `-p` defines the Websocket port to connect to (defaults to `8887`)
- `-s` defines the host on which a Websocket server is running (defaults to `localhost`)
Let's assume that there is an APEX engine running, configured for produce Websocket carrier technology, as server, for port 42452, with produce event protocol JSON,.
If we start the console client on the same host, we can omit the `-s` options.
We start the console client as:
[source%nowrap,bat]
----
# $APEX_HOME/bin/apexApps.sh ws-echo -p 42452 <1>
> %APEX_HOME%\bin\apexApps.bat ws-echo -p 42452 <2>
----
<1> Start client on Unix or Cygwin
<2> Start client on Windows
Once started successfully, the client will produce the following messages (assuming we used `-p 42452` and an APEX engine is running on `localhost` with the same port:
[source%nowrap,bat]
----
ws-simple-echo: starting simple event echo
--> server: localhost
--> port: 42452
Once started, the application will simply print out all received events to standard out.
Each received event will be prefixed by '---' and suffixed by '===='
ws-simple-echo: opened connection to APEX (Web Socket Protocol Handshake)
