how to go from net module to ws module - node.js

Question

here is my current code
'use strict';
var _ = require('underscore'),
util = require('util'),
events = require('events'),
net = require('net'),
colors = require('colors');
// Chatango Socket connection handler, for both Rooms and PM
// Available events: onconnect, data, error, timeout, close, write ( Note: exceptions must be handled! )
function Socket(host, port)
{
this._host = host;
this._port = port || 443;
this._socket = new net.Socket();
this._pingTask = false;
this._connected = false;
this._firstCommand = true;
this._writeLock = false;
this._writeBuffer = [];
this._buffer = '';
this.connect();
}
util.inherits(Socket, events.EventEmitter);
Socket.prototype.connect = function()
{
if(this._socket._connecting) return;
var self = this;
if(this._socket.destroyed){
var reconnecting = true;
console.log('[SOCKET] reconnecting to '+this._host+':'+this._port);
}else{
var reconnecting = false;
console.log('[SOCKET] connecting to '+this._host+':'+this._port);
}
this._writeLock = true;
if(this._socket._events.connect){
this._socket.connect(this._port, this._host);
}else{
this._socket.connect(this._port, this._host, function() {
self._connected = true;
self._writeLock = false;
self._pingTask = setInterval(function() {
if(self._connected) {
self.write(['']);
}
}, 30000);
self.emit('onconnect');
});
}
if(reconnecting) return;
this._socket.on('data', function(data) {
var buffer = data.toString('utf8');
if(buffer.substr(-1) !== '\x00')
{
self._buffer += buffer;
}
else
{
if(self._buffer != '')
{
buffer = self._buffer + buffer;
self._buffer = '';
}
var messages = buffer.split('\x00');
_.each(messages, function(message){
message = message.replace(/(\r|\n)/g, '');
if(message !== '')
self.emit('data', message);
});
}
});
this._socket.on('error', function(exception) {
self.emit('error', exception);
});
this._socket.on('timeout', function(exception) {
self.emit('timeout', exception);
});
this._socket.on('close', function() {
self._connected = false;
self._writeBuffer = [];
self._writeLock = false;
self._buffer = '';
self._firstCommand = true;
clearInterval(self._pingTask);
self.emit('close');
});
}
Socket.prototype.disconnect = function(){
this._socket.destroy();
}
Socket.prototype.setWriteLock = function(bool) {
this._writeLock = _.isBoolean(bool) && bool;
}
Socket.prototype.write = function(data) {
if(this._connected)
{
if(this._firstCommand)
{
var terminator = '\x00';
this._firstCommand = false;
}
else
var terminator = '\r\n\x00';
if(this._writeLock)
this._writeBuffer.push(data);
else
{
_.each(this._writeBuffer, function(value){
this.write(value);
}.bind(this));
if(data)
this.emit('write', data.join(':'));
this._socket.write(data.join(':') + terminator);
}
}
}
exports.Instance = Socket;
as you can see i am using the net module
i want to change to the ws module and do this using websockets https://github.com/einaros/ws
i've read all kinds of examples but none of them give me what i want
the lib im using is
