is sent to clients using WebSockets when the connection is closed. This is delivered to the listener indicated by the WebSocket
object's onclose
attribute.

Constructor
Variables
Returns an unsigned short
containing the close code send by the server. The following values are permitted status codes.
Status code | Name | Description |
0 –999 |
Reserved and not used. | |
1000 |
CLOSE_NORMAL |
Normal closure; the connection successfully completed whatever purpose for which it was created. |
1001 |
CLOSE_GOING_AWAY |
The endpoint is going away, either because of a server failure or because the browser is navigating away from the page that opened the connection. |
1002 |
CLOSE_PROTOCOL_ERROR |
The endpoint is terminating the connection due to a protocol error. |
1003 |
CLOSE_UNSUPPORTED |
The connection is being terminated because the endpoint received data of a type it cannot accept (for example, a text-only endpoint received binary data). |
1004 |
Reserved. A meaning might be defined in the future. | |
1005 |
CLOSE_NO_STATUS |
Reserved. Indicates that no status code was provided even though one was expected. |
1006 |
CLOSE_ABNORMAL |
Reserved. Used to indicate that a connection was closed abnormally (that is, with no close frame being sent) when a status code is expected. |
1007 |
Unsupported Data | The endpoint is terminating the connection because a message was received that contained inconsistent data (e.g., non-UTF-8 data within a text message). |
1008 |
Policy Violation | The endpoint is terminating the connection because it received a message that violates its policy. This is a generic status code, used when codes 1003 and 1009 are not suitable. |
1009 |
CLOSE_TOO_LARGE |
The endpoint is terminating the connection because a data frame was received that is too large. |
1010 |
Missing Extension | The client is terminating the connection because it expected the server to negotiate one or more extension, but the server didn't. |
1011 |
Internal Error | The server is terminating the connection because it encountered an unexpected condition that prevented it from fulfilling the request. |
1012 |
Service Restart | The server is terminating the connection because it is restarting. [Ref] |
1013 |
Try Again Later | The server is terminating the connection due to a temporary condition, e.g. it is overloaded and is casting off some of its clients. [Ref] |
1014 |
Reserved for future use by the WebSocket standard. | |
1015 |
TLS Handshake | Reserved. Indicates that the connection was closed due to a failure to perform a TLS handshake (e.g., the server certificate can't be verified). |
