Overview -------- "WebSocket is a computer communications protocol, providing full-duplex communication channels over a single TCP connection. The WebSocket protocol was standardized by the IETF as RFC 6455 in 2011, and the WebSocket API in Web IDL is being standardized by the W3C. WebSocket is a different TCP protocol from HTTP." -- [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebSocket) Example ------- ```C++ #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include using namespace std; using namespace restbed; using namespace std::chrono; shared_ptr< Service > service = nullptr; map< string, shared_ptr< WebSocket > > sockets = { }; string base64_encode( const unsigned char* input, int length ) { BIO* bmem, *b64; BUF_MEM* bptr; b64 = BIO_new( BIO_f_base64( ) ); bmem = BIO_new( BIO_s_mem( ) ); b64 = BIO_push( b64, bmem ); BIO_write( b64, input, length ); ( void ) BIO_flush( b64 ); BIO_get_mem_ptr( b64, &bptr ); char* buff = ( char* )malloc( bptr->length ); memcpy( buff, bptr->data, bptr->length - 1 ); buff[ bptr->length - 1 ] = 0; BIO_free_all( b64 ); return buff; } multimap< string, string > build_websocket_handshake_response_headers( const shared_ptr< const Request >& request ) { auto key = request->get_header( "Sec-WebSocket-Key" ); key.append( "258EAFA5-E914-47DA-95CA-C5AB0DC85B11" ); Byte hash[ SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH ]; SHA1( reinterpret_cast< const unsigned char* >( key.data( ) ), key.length( ), hash ); multimap< string, string > headers; headers.insert( make_pair( "Upgrade", "websocket" ) ); headers.insert( make_pair( "Connection", "Upgrade" ) ); headers.insert( make_pair( "Sec-WebSocket-Accept", base64_encode( hash, SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH ) ) ); return headers; } void ping_handler( void ) { for ( auto entry : sockets ) { auto key = entry.first; auto socket = entry.second; if ( socket->is_open( ) ) { socket->send( WebSocketMessage::PING_FRAME ); } else { socket->close( ); } } } void close_handler( const shared_ptr< WebSocket > socket ) { if ( socket->is_open( ) ) { auto response = make_shared< WebSocketMessage >( WebSocketMessage::CONNECTION_CLOSE_FRAME, Bytes( { 10, 00 } ) ); socket->send( response ); } const auto key = socket->get_key( ); sockets.erase( key ); fprintf( stderr, "Closed connection to %s.\n", key.data( ) ); } void error_handler( const shared_ptr< WebSocket > socket, const error_code error ) { const auto key = socket->get_key( ); fprintf( stderr, "WebSocket Errored '%s' for %s.\n", error.message( ).data( ), key.data( ) ); } void message_handler( const shared_ptr< WebSocket > source, const shared_ptr< WebSocketMessage > message ) { const auto opcode = message->get_opcode( ); if ( opcode == WebSocketMessage::PING_FRAME ) { auto response = make_shared< WebSocketMessage >( WebSocketMessage::PONG_FRAME, message->get_data( ) ); source->send( response ); } else if ( opcode == WebSocketMessage::PONG_FRAME ) { //Ignore PONG_FRAME. // //Every time the ping_handler is scheduled to run, it fires off a PING_FRAME to each //WebSocket.
