@defmodule[net/websocket]
The @racketmodname[net/websocket] library provides
utilities to run and communicate with WebSocket servers,
as specified in @link["http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-socket-protocol/"]{the WebSocket protocol} IETF draft
as of August 16th, 2010.
This module provides the exports from @racketmodname[net/websocket/client] and @racketmodname[net/websocket/server].
@section{Client API}
@defmodule[net/websocket/client]
@defproc[(ws-url? [x any/c]) boolean?]{ Returns true if @racket[x] is a @racket[url?] and has a @racket[url-scheme] equal to @litchar["ws"] or @litchar["wss"]. }
@defproc[(wss-url? [x any/c]) boolean?]{ Returns true if @racket[x] is a @racket[url?] and has a @racket[url-scheme] equal to @litchar["wss"]. }
@defproc[(ws-connect [u ws-url?]
[#:headers headers (listof header?) empty])
open-ws-conn?]{
Connects to the WebSocket server specified by @racket[u], providing @racket[headers] as additional headers.
Returns the connection handle.
}
This module also provides the exports from @racketmodname[net/websocket/conn].
@section{Server API}
@defmodule[net/websocket/server]
@defproc[(ws-serve [conn-handle (open-ws-conn? any/c . -> . void)]
[#:conn-headers
conn-headers
(bytes? (listof header?) . -> . (values (listof header?) any/c))
(λ (b hs) (values empty (void)))]
[#:tcp@ tcp@ (unit/c (import) (export tcp^)) raw:tcp@]
[#:port port tcp-listen-port? 80]
[#:listen-ip listen-ip (or/c string? false/c) #f]

[#:timeout timeout integer? (* 60 60)]
[#:confirmation-channel

(or/c false/c async-channel?)
#f])
(-> void)]{
Starts a WebSocket server where each new connection uses @racket[conn-headers] to compute
what headers the client receives based on the client's request line and headers. @racket[conn-headers]
also returns a piece of state that will be passed to @racket[conn-handle] as its second argument.
After the connection handshake is finished, @racket[conn-handle] receives the connection and is in
sole control until the WebSocket connection completes.
All other arguments are used as in a @secref["dispatch-server-unit" #:doc '(lib "web-server/scribblings/web-server-internal.scrbl")].
The @racket[#:tcp@] keyword is provided for building an SSL server.
}
This module also provides the exports from @racketmodname[net/websocket/conn].
@section{Connections}
@defmodule[net/websocket/conn]
@defparam[framing-mode mode (symbols 'old 'new)]{ Controls whether framing is as before August 16th, 2010 or after. (Most Web browsers currently support only @racket['old] and they are incompatible, so you must choose the correct one.) Defaults to @racket['old].}
@defproc[(ws-conn? [x any/c]) boolean?]{ Returns true if @racket[x] is a WebSocket connection. }
@defproc[(open-ws-conn? [x any/c]) boolean?]{ Returns true if @racket[x] is an open WebSocket connection. }
@defproc[(ws-conn-line [ws ws-conn?]) bytes?]{ Returns the request/response line of the WebSocket connection. }
@defproc[(ws-conn-closed? [ws ws-conn?]) boolean?]{ Returns true if the WebSocket connection has been closed. }
@defproc[(ws-conn-headers [ws ws-conn?]) (listof header?)]{ Returns the headers of the WebSocket connection. }
WebSocket connection support only blocking calls:
@defproc[(ws-send! [ws open-ws-conn?] [s string?]) void]{ Sends @racket[s] over @racket[ws]. }
@defproc[(ws-recv [ws open-ws-conn?]) (or/c string? eof-object?)]{ Receives a string from @racket[ws]. Returns @racket[eof] if the other end closes the connection. }
@defproc[(ws-close! [ws open-ws-conn?]) void]{ Closes @racket[ws]. }
@section{Example}
This is a WebSocket echo server compatible with the browser origin security model:
@racketblock[
(ws-serve
#:port 8080
(λ (wsc _)
(let loop ()
(define m (ws-recv wsc))
(printf "~a\n" m)
(unless (eof-object? m)
(ws-send! wsc m)
(loop))))
#:conn-headers
(λ (_ hs)
(define origin
(header-value (headers-assq* #"Origin" hs)))
(values
(list
(make-header #"Sec-WebSocket-Origin" origin)
(make-header #"Sec-WebSocket-Location"
#"ws://localhost:8080/"))
#f)))
