Server

API

isWebSocketCloseEvent

Returns true if input value is a WebSocketCloseEvent, false otherwise.

isWebSocketPingEvent

Returns true if input value is a WebSocketPingEvent, false otherwise.

isWebSocketPongEvent

Returns true if input value is a WebSocketPongEvent, false otherwise.

unmask

Unmask masked WebSocket payload.

writeFrame

Write WebSocket frame to inputted writer.

readFrame

Read WebSocket frame from inputted BufReader.

createMask

Create mask from the client to the server with random 32bit number.

acceptable

Returns true if input headers are usable for WebSocket, otherwise false

createSecAccept

Create value of Sec-WebSocket-Accept header from inputted nonce.

acceptWebSocket

Upgrade inputted TCP connection into WebSocket connection.

createSecKey

Returns base64 encoded 16 bytes string for Sec-WebSocket-Key header.

connectWebSocket
