Hey I want to build myo control on my websites wich use https.

The websocket cannot be initiated.

Uncaught SecurityError: Failed to construct 'WebSocket': An insecure WebSocket connection may not be initiated from a page loaded over HTTPS.

Hmm, there doesn't seem to be any easy solution. It might require a change to the way Myo Connect does it's web socket. I'll look into it.

Yes it would be cool if the PC and Mac programm can be updated to support wss://

The diagnostics site fails as well (as an example) when accessed over https https://diagnostics.myo.com/

@jeffbryner thanks for the headsup. Any https site using Myo.js will run into this problem unfortunately. It's pretty low priority to update Myo Connect with wss, but I'll see what I can do.

[jeffbryner]

Understood. I'll see if I can work around it by setting up a nginx ssl proxy somewhere (local or remote) in the system.

FWIW, I figured out how to configure nginx as a local reverse proxy which allows the connection to succeed. Here's some docs: http://mozdef.readthedocs.org/en/latest/advanced_settings.html#myo-with-tls-ssl
