- **WebSocket Support**: Full WebSocket server and client implementation
- **HTTP/HTTPS**: Simple HTTP client and server helpers
- **Pub/Sub & RPC**: Publish/subscribe messaging and remote procedure calls
- **Message Queuing**: Advanced queue management for reliable message delivery
- **Load Balancing**: Distribute connections across multiple servers
- **Data Compression**: Built-in compression for bandwidth optimization
- **Protocol Buffers**: Support for efficient binary serialization
- **Decorators & Utilities**: Helper decorators and utility functions
- **Docker Support**: Ready-to-use Docker containers and compose files
- **Interactive CLI**: Real-time interactive command-line interface
- **Command-Line Interface**: Simple CLI for quick socket operations
- **Connection Pooling**: Efficient connection reuse for high-performance applications
- **Network Visibility**: ARP scanning, MAC lookup, and DNS monitoring tools

## Installation

```bash
pip install kn-sock
```

## Quick Start

Here's a simple example to get you started:

```python
# Server
from kn_sock import start_tcp_server

def handle_message(data, addr, client_socket):
    print(f"Received from {addr}: {data.decode('utf-8')}")
    client_socket.sendall(b"Message received!")

start_tcp_server(8080, handle_message)
```

```python
# Client
from kn_sock import send_tcp_message

send_tcp_message("localhost", 8080, "Hello, World!")
```

### Docker Quick Start

```bash
# Run with Docker Compose
docker-compose run knsock --help

# Run tests
docker-compose run test
```
