Overview

Package websocket provide a library for creating WebSocket server or client.

The websocket server is implemented with epoll and kqueue, which means it's only run on Linux, Darwin, or BSD.

Pub-Sub Example

The following example show how create an authenticated WebSocket server that echo the data frame TEXT back to client. 

import (
	...

	"github.com/shuLhan/share/lib/websocket"
)

var srv *websocket.Server

func handleAuth(req *Handshake) (ctx context.Context, err error) {
	URL, err := url.ParseRequestURI(string(req.URI))
	if err != nil {
		return nil, err
	}

	q := URL.Query()

	extJWT := q.Get("ticket")
	if len(extJWT) == 0 {
		return nil, fmt.Errorf("Missing authorization")
	}

	ctx = context.WithValue(context.Background(), CtxKeyExternalJWT, extJWT)
	ctx = context.WithValue(ctx, CtxKeyInternalJWT, _testInternalJWT)
	ctx = context.WithValue(ctx, CtxKeyUID, _testUID)

	return ctx, nil
}

func handleText(conn int, payload []byte) {
	packet := websocket.NewFrameText(false, payload)

	ctx := srv.Clients.Context(conn)

	// ... do something with connection context "ctx"

	err := websocket.Send(conn, packet)
	if err != nil {
		log.Println("handleText: " + err.Error())
	}
}

func main() {
	opts := &ServerOptions{
		Address: ":9001",
		HandleAuth: handleAuth,
		HandleText: handleText,
	}
	srv, err := websocket.NewServer(opts)
	if err != nil {
		log.Println("websocket: " + err.Error())
		os.Exit(2)
	}

	srv.Start()
}

Types

type Client 

type Client struct {
	sync.Mutex

	//
	// Endpoint contains URI of remote server.  The endpoint use the
	// following format,
	//
	//	ws-URI = "ws:" "//" host [ ":" port ] path [ "?" query ]
	//	wss-URI = "wss:" "//" host [ ":" port ] path [ "?" query ]
	//
	// The port component is OPTIONAL, default is 80 for "ws" scheme, and
	// 443 for "wss" scheme.
	//
	Endpoint string

	//
	// TLSConfig define custom TLS configuration when connecting to secure
	// WebSocket server.
	// The scheme of Endpoint must be "https" or "wss", or it will be
	// resetting back to nil.
	//
	TLSConfig *tls.Config

	// HandleBin callback that will be called after receiving data
	// frame binary from server.
	HandleBin ClientHandler

	// HandleQuit function that will be called when client connection is
	// closed.

}

Client for WebSocket protocol.

Unlike HTTP client or other most commmon TCP oriented client, the WebSocket client is actually asynchronous or passive-active instead of synchronous. At any time client connection is open to server, client can receive a message broadcast from server.

Case examples: if client send "A" to server, and expect that server response with "A+", server may send message "B" before sending "A+". Another case is when client connection is open, server may send "B" and "C" in any order without any request send by client previously.

Due to this model, the way to handle response from server is centralized using handlers instead of using single send request-response.

Client Example

The following snippet show how to create a client and handling response from request or broadcast from server, 

cl := &Client{
	Endpoint: "ws://127.0.0.1:9001",
	HandleText: func(cl *Client, frame *Frame) error {
		// Process response from request or broadcast from
		// server.
		return nil
	}
}

err := cl.Connect()
if err != nil {
	log.Fatal(err.Error())
}

err := cl.SendText([]byte("Hello from client"))
if err != nil {
	log.Fatal(err.Error())
}

At any time, server may send PING or CLOSE the connection. For this messages, client already handled it by sending PONG message or by closing underlying connection automatically. Implementor can check closed connection from error returned from Send methods to match with ErrConnClosed.

func (*Client) Close added in v0.15.0 

func (cl *Client) Close() (err error)

Close gracefully close the client connection.

func (*Client) Connect added in v0.5.0 

func (cl *Client) Connect() (err error)

Connect to endpoint.

func (*Client) Quit added in v0.5.0 

func (cl *Client) Quit()

Quit force close the client connection without sending CLOSE control frame. This function MUST be used only when error receiving packet from server (e.g. lost connection) to release the resource.

func (*Client) SendBin added in v0.5.0 

func (cl *Client) SendBin(payload []byte) error

SendBin send data frame as binary to server. If handler is nil, no response will be read from server.

func (*Client) SendPing added in v0.5.0 

func (cl *Client) SendPing(payload []byte) error

SendPing send control PING frame to server, expecting PONG as response.

func (*Client) SendPong added in v0.5.0 

func (cl *Client) SendPong(payload []byte) error

SendPong send the control frame PONG to server, by using payload from PING frame.

func (*Client) SendText added in v0.5.0 

func (cl *Client) SendText(payload []byte) (err error)

SendText send data frame as text to server. If handler is nil, no response will be read from server.

type ClientHandler added in v0.5.0 

type ClientHandler func(cl *Client, frame *Frame) (err error)

ClientHandler define a callback type for client to handle packet from server (either broadcast or from response of request) in the form of frame.

Returning a non-nil error will cause the underlying connection to be closed.

type ClientManager added in v0.5.0 

type ClientManager struct {
	sync.Mutex
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

ClientManager manage list of active websocket connections on server.

This library assume that each connection belong to a user in the server, where each user is representated by uint64.

For a custom management of user use HandleClientAdd and HandleClientRemove on Server.

func (*ClientManager) All added in v0.5.0 

func (cls *ClientManager) All() (conns []int)

All return a copy of all client connections.

func (*ClientManager) Conns added in v0.5.0 

func (cls *ClientManager) Conns(uid uint64) (conns []int)

Conns return list of connections by user ID.

Each user may have more than one connection (e.g. from Android, iOS, or web). By knowing which connections that user have, implementor of websocket server can broadcast a message to all connections.

func (*ClientManager) Context added in v0.5.0 

func (cls *ClientManager) Context(conn int) (ctx context.Context)

Context return the client context.

type CloseCode added in v0.5.0 

type CloseCode uint16

CloseCode represent the server close status.

type ContextKey 

type ContextKey byte

ContextKey define a type for context. 

const (
	CtxKeyExternalJWT ContextKey = 1 << iota
	CtxKeyInternalJWT
	CtxKeyUID
)

List of valid context key.

type Frame 

type Frame struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Frame represent a WebSocket data protocol.

func (*Frame) IsData added in v0.5.0 

func (f *Frame) IsData() bool

IsData return true if frame is either text or binary data frame.

func (*Frame) Opcode 

func (f *Frame) Opcode() Opcode

Opcode return the frame operation code.

func (*Frame) Payload 

func (f *Frame) Payload() []byte

Payload return the frame payload.

type Frames added in v0.5.0 

type Frames struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Frames represent continuous (fragmented) frame.

A fragmented message consists of a single frame with the FIN bit clear and an opcode other than 0, followed by zero or more frames with the FIN bit clear and the opcode set to 0, and terminated by a single frame with the FIN bit set and an opcode of 0.

func Unpack 

func Unpack(in []byte) (frames *Frames)

Unpack websocket data protocol from raw bytes to one or more frames.

When receiving packet from client, the underlying protocol or operating system may buffered the packet. Client may send a single frame one at time, but server may receive one or more frame in one packet; and vice versa. That's the reason why the Unpack return multiple frame instead of single frame.

On success it will return one or more frames. On fail it will return zero frame.

func (*Frames) Append added in v0.5.0 

func (frames *Frames) Append(f *Frame)

Append a frame as part of continuous frame. This function does not check if the appended frame is valid (i.e. zero operation code on second or later frame).

	OpcodeControlRsvE Opcode = 0xE
	OpcodeControlRsvF Opcode = 0xF
)

List of valid operation code in frame.

type Request 

type Request struct {
	//
	// Id is unique between request to differentiate multiple request
	// since each request is asynchronous.  Client can use incremental
	// value or, the recommended way, using Unix timestamp with
	// millisecond.
	//
	ID uint64 `json:"id"`

	// Method is equal to HTTP method.
	Method string `json:"method"`

	// Target is equal to HTTP request RequestURI, e.g. "/path?query".
	Target string `json:"target"`

	// Body is equal to HTTP body on POST/PUT.
	Body string `json:"body"`

	// Path is Target without query.
	Path string `json:"-"`

	// Params are parameters as key-value in Target path that has been
	// parsed.
	Params targetParam `json:"-"`

	// Query is Target query.
	Query url.Values `json:"-"`

	// Conn is the client connection, where the request come from.
	Conn int
}

Request define text payload format for client requesting resource on server.

Example of request format, 

{
	"id": 1512459721269,
	"method": "GET",
	"target": "/v1/auth/login",
	"body": "{ \"token\": \"xxx.yyy.zzz\" }"
}

type Response 

type Response struct {
	ID      uint64 `json:"id"`
	Code    int32  `json:"code"`
	Message string `json:"message"`
	Body    string `json:"body"`
}

Response contains the data that server send to client as a reply from Request or as broadcast from client subscription.

If response type is a reply from Request, the ID from Request will be copied to the Response, and `code` and `message` field values are equal with HTTP response code and message.

Example of response format for replying request, 

{
	id: 1512459721269,
	code:  200,
	message: "",
	body: ""
}

If response type is broadcast the ID and code MUST be 0, and the `message` field will contain the name of subscription. For example, when recipient of message read the message, server will publish a notification response as, 

{
	id: 0,
	code:  0,
	message: "message.read",
	body: "{ \"id\": ... }"
}

type RouteHandler func(ctx context.Context, req *Request) (res Response)

RouteHandler is a function that will be called when registered method and target match with request.

type Server 

type Server struct {
	Clients *ClientManager

	// Options for server, set by calling NewServer.
	// This field is exported only for reference, for example logging in
	// the Options when server started.
	// Modifying the value of Options after server has been started may
	// cause undefined effects.
	Options *ServerOptions
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Server for websocket.

func NewServer(opts *ServerOptions) (serv *Server)

NewServer will create new web-socket server that listen on specific port number.

func (*Server) AllowReservedBits added in v0.5.0 

func (serv *Server) AllowReservedBits(one, two, three bool)

AllowReservedBits allow receiving frame with RSV1, RSV2, or RSV3 bit set. Calling this function means server has negotiated the extension that use the reserved bits through handshake with client using HandleAuth.

If a nonzero value is received in reserved bits and none of the negotiated extensions defines the meaning of such a nonzero value, server will close the connection (RFC 6455, section 5.2).

func (*Server) ClientRemove added in v0.5.0 

func (serv *Server) ClientRemove(conn int)

ClientRemove remove client connection from server.

func (*Server) RegisterTextHandler

	// and, if HandleAuth is defined, after client is authenticated.
	HandleClientAdd HandlerClientFn

	// HandleClientRemove callback that will be called before client
	// connection being removed and closed by server.
	HandleClientRemove HandlerClientFn

	// HandleRsvControl callback that will be called when server received
	// reserved control frame (opcode 0xB-F) from client.
	// Default handle is nil.
	HandleRsvControl HandlerFrameFn

	// HandleText callback that will be called after receiving data
	// frame(s) text from client.
	// Default handle parse the payload into Request and pass it to
	// registered routes.
	HandleText HandlerPayloadFn

	// HandleBin callback that will be called after receiving data
	// frame(s) binary from client.
