mDuo13 7645140477 Re-levelization: move non-docs content, rename content→docs
For better URLs, the content folder has been renamed 'docs' and all
other files have been moved up a level. Also, non-docs images have been
moved to the static folder at the top level where they belong.

Many relative paths had to be fixed to make this work.

ping

[Source]

The ping command returns an acknowledgement, so that clients can test the connection status and latency.

Request Format

An example of the request format:

{% tabs %}

{% tab label="WebSocket" %}

{
    "id": 1,
    "command": "ping"
}

{% /tab %}

{% tab label="JSON-RPC" %}

{
    "method": "ping",
    "params": [
        {}
    ]
}

{% /tab %}

{% tab label="Commandline" %}

#Syntax: ping
rippled ping

{% /tab %}

{% /tabs %}

Try it! >

The request includes no parameters.

Response Format

An example of a successful response:

{% tabs %}

{% tab label="WebSocket" %}

{
    "id": 1,
    "result": {},
    "status": "success",
    "type": "response"
}

{% /tab %}

{% tab label="JSON-RPC" %}

200 OK

{
    "result": {
        "status": "success"
    }
}

{% /tab %}

{% /tabs %}

The response follows the [standard format][], with a successful result containing no fields. The client can measure the round-trip time from request to response as latency.
