Websocket get all clients

how can I get all connected users via ws for later changing the data of these users?

Hi, hyper-express is an unopinionated webserver library hence it does not track the connections internally. However, you can easily implement your own tracking like below:

import crypto from 'crypto';

// We will store connections in this
const connections = new Map();

// Listen for ws connections
server.ws('/connect', (ws) => {
    // Generate a random ID for this connection
    const id = crypto.randomUUID();

    // Track this connection
    connections.set(id, ws);

    // Clean up the connection once disconnected
    ws.once('close', () => {
        // Delete the connection
        connections.delete(id);
    });
});
