public class HeartbeatChannel extends JupyterChannel

The Heartbeat channel is one of the five channel used to communicate with a Jupyter Kernel.

A Heartbeat is very common in Socket communication. It sends a short message, every second, for instance “ping”, to the connected server and wait for its answer.

We use it in order to know if we are still connected to the server.

TODO : add disconnection monitoring.
