# LibHTTP API Reference
### `mg_websocket_write( conn, opcode, data, data_len );`
### Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
|**`conn`**|`struct mg_connection *`|Connection on which the data must be written|
|**`opcode`**|`int`|Opcode|
|**`data`**|`const char *`|Data to be written to the client|
|**`data_len`**|`size_t`|Length of the data|
### Return Value
| Type | Description |
| :--- | :--- |
|`int`|Number of bytes written or an error code|
### Description
The function `mg_websocket_write()` sends data to a websocket client wrapped in a websocket frame. The function issues calls to [`mg_lock_connection()`](mg_lock_connection.md) and [`mg_unlock_connaction()`](mg_unlock_connection.md) to ensure that the transmission is not interrupted. Data corruption can otherwise happn if the application is proactively communicating and responding to a request simultaneously.
The function is available only when LibHTTP is compiled with the `-DUSE_WEBSOCKET` option.
The function returns the number of bytes written, **0** when the connection has been closed and **-1** if an error occured.
