+JSON-RPC over WebSocket
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+JSON-RPC over WebSocket uses same method signatures and response
+format with JSON-RPC over HTTP. The supported WebSocket version is 13
+which is detailed in http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6455[RFC 6455].
+
+To send a RPC request to the RPC server, send serialized JSON string
+in Text frame. The response from the RPC server is delivered also in
+Text frame.
+
+The RPC server will send the notification to the client. The
+notification is unidirectional, therefore the client which received
+the notification must not respond to it. The method signature of
+notification is much like a normal method request but lacks id
+key. The value associated by the params key is the data which this
+notification carries. The format of this value varies depending on the
+notification method. Following notification methods are defined.
+
+[[aria2_rpc_aria2_onDownloadStart]]
+*aria2.onDownloadStart* ('event')
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This notification will be sent if a download is started.
+The 'event' is of type struct and it contains following keys.
+The value type is string.
+
+gid::
+
+  GID of the download.
+
+[[aria2_rpc_aria2_onDownloadPause]]
+*aria2.onDownloadPause* ('event')
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This notification will be sent if a download is paused.  The 'event'
+is the same struct of the 'event' argument of
+*<<aria2_rpc_aria2_onDownloadStart, aria2.onDownloadStart>>* method.
+
+[[aria2_rpc_aria2_onDownloadStop]]
+*aria2.onDownloadStop* ('event')
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This notification will be sent if a download is stopped by the user.
+The 'event' is the same struct of the 'event' argument of
+*<<aria2_rpc_aria2_onDownloadStart, aria2.onDownloadStart>>* method.
+
+[[aria2_rpc_aria2_onDownloadComplete]]
+*aria2.onDownloadComplete* ('event')
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This notification will be sent if a download is completed.  In
+BitTorrent downloads, this notification is sent when the download is
+completed and seeding is over. The 'event' is the same struct of the
+'event' argument of *<<aria2_rpc_aria2_onDownloadStart,
+aria2.onDownloadStart>>* method.
+
+[[aria2_rpc_aria2_onDownloadError]]
+*aria2.onDownloadError* ('event')
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This notification will be sent if a download is stopped due to error.
+The 'event' is the same struct of the 'event' argument of
+*<<aria2_rpc_aria2_onDownloadStart, aria2.onDownloadStart>>* method.
+
+[[aria2_rpc_aria2_onBtDownloadComplete]]
+*aria2.onBtDownloadComplete* ('event')
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This notification will be sent if a download is completed in
+BitTorrent (but seeding may not be over).  The 'event' is the same struct
+of the 'event' argument of *<<aria2_rpc_aria2_onDownloadStart,
+aria2.onDownloadStart>>* method.
