//! Usage //! ----- //! //! For simple applications, use one of the utility functions `listen` and `connect`: //! //! `listen` accpets a string that represents a socket address and a Factory, see //! [Architecture](#architecture). //! //! ```no_run //! // A WebSocket echo server //! //! use ws::listen; //! //! listen("127.0.0.1:3012", |out| { //! move |msg| { //! out.send(msg) //! } //! }).unwrap() //! ``` //! //! `connect` accepts a string that represents a WebSocket URL (i.e. one that starts with ws://), //! and it will attempt to connect to a WebSocket server at that location. It also accepts a //! Factory. //! //! ```no_run //! // A WebSocket client that sends one message then closes //! //! use ws::{connect, CloseCode}; //! //! connect("ws://127.0.0.1:3012", |out| { //! out.send("Hello WebSocket").unwrap(); //! //! move |msg| { //! println!("Got message: {}", msg); //! out.close(CloseCode::Normal) //! } //! }).unwrap() //! ``` //! //! Each of these functions encapsulates a mio EventLoop, creating and running a WebSocket in the //! current thread. These are blocking functions, so they will only return after the encapsulated //! WebSocket has been shutdown. //! //! Architecture //! ------ //! //! A WebSocket requires two basic components: a Factory and a Handler. A Factory is any struct //! that implements the `Factory` trait. WS-RS already provides an implementation of `Factory` for //! closures, so it is possible to pass a closure as a Factory to either of the utility functions. //! Your Factory will be called each time the underlying TCP connection has been successfully //! established, and it will need to return a Handler that will handle the new WebSocket connection. //! //! Factories can be used to manage state that applies to multiple WebSocket connections, //! whereas Handlers manage the state of individual connections. Most of the time, a closure //! Factory is sufficient, and you will only need to focus on writing your Handler. //! Your Factory will be passed a Sender struct that represents the output of the WebSocket. //! The Sender allows the Handler to send messages, initiate a WebSocket closing handshake //! by sending a close code, and other useful actions. If you need to send messages from other parts //! of your application it is possible to clone and send the Sender across threads allowing //! other code to send messages on the WebSocket without blocking the event loop. //! //! Just as with the Factory, it is possible to use a closure as a simple Handler. The closure must //! take a Message as it's only argument, and it may close over variables that exist in //! the Factory. For example, in the above examples using `listen` and `connect`, the closure //! Factory returns another closure as the Handler for the new connection. This closure closes over //! the variable `out`, which is the Sender, representing the output of the WebSocket, so that it //! can use that sender later to send a Message. Closure Handlers generally need to take ownership of the variables //! that they close over because the Factory may be called multiple times. Think of Handlers as //! though they are threads and Rust's memory model should make sense. Closure Handlers must return //! a `Result<()>`, in order to handle errors without panicking. //! //! In the above examples, `out.close` and `out.send` both actually return a `Result<()>` indicating //! whether they were able to schedule the requested command (either `close` or `send`) with the //! EventLoop. //! //! *It is important that your Handler does not panic carelessly because a handler that panics will //! disconnect every other connection that is using that WebSocket. Don't panic unless you want all //! connections to immediately fail.* //! //! Guide //! ----- //! //! You may have noticed in the usage exmaples that the client example calls `unwrap` when sending the first //! message, which will panic in the factory if the Message can't be sent for some reason. Also, //! sending messages before a handler is returned means that the message will be queued before //! the WebSocket handshake is complete. The handshake could fail for some reason, and then the //! queued message would be wasted effort. Sending messages in the Factory is not bad for simple, //! short-lived, or toy projects, but let's explore writing a handler that is better for //! long-running applications. //! //! In order to solve the problem of sending a message immediately when a WebSocket connection is //! established, you will need to write a Handler that implements the `on_open` method. For //! example: //! //! ```no_run //! use ws::{connect, Handler, Sender, Handshake, Result, Message, CloseCode}; //! //! // Our Handler struct. //! // Here we explicity indicate that the Client needs a Sender, //! // whereas a closure captures the Sender for us automatically. //! struct Client { //! out: Sender, //! } //! //! // We implement the Handler trait for Client so that we can get more //! // fine-grained control of the connection. //! impl Handler for Client { //! //! // `on_open` will be called only after the WebSocket handshake is successful //! // so at this point we know that the connection is ready to send/receive messages. //! // We ignore the `Handshake` for now, but you could also use this method to setup //! // Handler state or reject the connection based on the details of the Request //! // or Response, such as by checking cookies or Auth headers. //! fn on_open(&mut self, _: Handshake) -> Result<()> { //! // Now we don't need to call unwrap since `on_open` returns a `Result<()>`. //! // If this call fails, it will only result in this connection disconnecting. //! self.out.send("Hello WebSocket") //! } //! //! // `on_message` is roughly equivalent to the Handler closure. It takes a `Message` //! // and returns a `Result<()>`. //! fn on_message(&mut self, msg: Message) -> Result<()> { //! // Close the connection when we get a response from the server //! println!("Got message: {}", msg); //! self.out.close(CloseCode::Normal) //! } //! } //! //! // Now, instead of a closure, the Factory returns a new instance of our Handler. //! connect("ws://127.0.0.1:3012", |out| { Client { out: out } }).unwrap() //! ``` //! //! That is a big increase in verbosity in order to accomplish the same effect as the //! original example, but this way is more flexible and gives you access to more of the underlying //! details of the WebSocket connection. //! //! Another method you will probably want to implement is `on_close`. This method is called anytime //! the other side of the WebSocket connection attempts to close the connection. Implementing //! `on_close` gives you a mechanism for informing the user regarding why the WebSocket connection //! may have been closed, and it also gives you an opportunity to clean up any resources or state //! that may be dependent on the connection that is now about to disconnect. //! //! An example server might use this as follows: //! //! ```no_run //! use ws::{listen, Handler, Sender, Result, Message, CloseCode}; //! //! struct Server { //! out: Sender, //! } //! //! impl Handler for Server { //! //! fn on_message(&mut self, msg: Message) -> Result<()> { //! // Echo the message back //! self.out.send(msg) //! } //! //! fn on_close(&mut self, code: CloseCode, reason: &str) { //! // The WebSocket protocol allows for a utf8 reason for the closing state after the //! // close code. WS-RS will attempt to interpret this data as a utf8 description of the //! // reason for closing the connection. I many cases, `reason` will be an empty string. //! // So, you may not normally want to display `reason` to the user, //! // but let's assume that we know that `reason` is human-readable. //! match code { //! CloseCode::Normal => println!("The client is done with the connection."), //! CloseCode::Away => println!("The client is leaving the site."), //! _ => println!("The client encountered an error: {}", reason), //! } //! } //! } //! //! listen("127.0.0.1:3012", |out| { Server { out: out } }).unwrap() //! ``` //! //! Errors don't just occur on the other side of the connection, sometimes your code will encounter //! an exceptional state too. You can access errors by implementing `on_error`. By implementing //! `on_error` you can inform the user of an error and tear down any resources that you may have //! setup for the connection, but which are not owned by the Handler. Also, note that certain kinds //! of errors have certain ramifications within the WebSocket protocol. WS-RS will take care of //! sending the appropriate close code. //! //! A server that tracks state outside of the handler might be as follows: //! //! ```no_run //! //! use std::rc::Rc; //! use std::cell::RefCell; //! //! use ws::{listen, Handler, Sender, Result, Message, Handshake, CloseCode, Error}; //! //! struct Server { //! out: Sender, //! count: Rc<RefCell<usize>>, //! } //! //! impl Handler for Server { //! //! fn on_open(&mut self, _: Handshake) -> Result<()> { //! // We have a new connection, so we increment the connection counter //! Ok(*self.count.borrow_mut() += 1) //! } //! //! fn on_message(&mut self, msg: Message) -> Result<()> { //! // Tell the user the current count //! println!("The number of live connections is {}", *self.count.borrow()); //! //! // Echo the message back //! self.out.send(msg) //! } //! //! fn on_close(&mut self, code: CloseCode, reason: &str) { //! match code { //! CloseCode::Normal => println!("The client is done with the connection."), //! CloseCode::Away => println!("The client is leaving the site."), //! _ => println!("The client encountered an error: {}", reason), //! } //! //! // The connection is going down, so we need to decrement the count //! *self.count.borrow_mut() -= 1 //! } //! //! fn on_error(&mut self, err: Error) { //! println!("The server encountered an error: {:?}", err); //! //! // The connection is going down, so we need to decrement the count //! *self.count.borrow_mut() -= 1 //! } //! //! } //! // RefCell enforces Rust borrowing rules at runtime. //! // Calling borrow_mut will panic if the count being borrowed, //! // but we know already that only one handler at a time will ever try to change the count. //! // Rc is a reference-counted box for sharing the count between handlers //! // since each handler needs to own its contents. //! let count = Rc::new(RefCell::new(0)); //! listen("127.0.0.1:3012", |out| { Server { out: out, count: count.clone() } }).unwrap() //! ``` //! //! There are other Handler methods that allow even more fine-grained access, but most applications //! will usually only need these four methods. //! extern crate httparse; extern crate mio; extern crate sha1; extern crate rand; extern crate url; #[macro_use] extern crate log; mod result; mod connection; mod frame; mod message; mod handshake; mod protocol; mod communication; mod io; pub use connection::factory::Factory; pub use connection::factory::Settings as WebSocketSettings; pub use connection::handler::Handler; pub use connection::handler::Settings as ConnectionSettings; pub use result::{Result, Error}; pub use result::Kind as ErrorKind; pub use message::Message; pub use communication::Sender; pub use protocol::CloseCode; pub use handshake::{Handshake, Request, Response}; use std::fmt; use std::net::ToSocketAddrs; use mio::EventLoopConfig; use std::borrow::Borrow; /// A utility function for setting up a WebSocket server. /// /// # Safety /// /// This function blocks until the EventLoop finishes running.
