fastwebsockets is a fast WebSocket protocol implementation.
Passes the Autobahn|TestSuite1 and fuzzed with LLVM's libfuzzer.
You can use it as a raw websocket frame parser and deal with spec compliance yourself, or you can use it as a full-fledged websocket client/server.
use fastwebsockets::{Frame, OpCode, WebSocket};
async fn handle_client(
mut socket: TcpStream,
) -> Result<(), WebSocketError> {
handshake(&mut socket).await?;
let mut ws = WebSocket::after_handshake(socket);
ws.set_writev(true);
ws.set_auto_close(true);
ws.set_auto_pong(true);
loop {
let frame = ws.read_frame().await?;
match frame {
OpCode::Close => break,
OpCode::Text | OpCode::Binary => {
let frame = Frame::new(true, frame.opcode, None, frame.payload);
ws.write_frame(frame).await?;
}
}
}
Ok(())
}
Fragmentation
By default, fastwebsockets will give the application raw frames with FIN set. Other crates like tungstenite which will give you a single message with all the frames concatenated.
For concanated frames, use FragmentCollector
:
let mut ws = WebSocket::after_handshake(socket);
let mut ws = FragmentCollector::new(ws);
let incoming = ws.read_frame().await?;
// Always returns full messages
assert!(incoming.fin);
permessage-deflate is not supported yet.
HTTP Upgrade
Enable the upgrade
feature to do server-side upgrades and client-side
handshakes.
This feature is powered by hyper.
use fastwebsockets::upgrade::upgrade;
use hyper::{Request, body::{Incoming, Bytes}, Response};
use http_body_util::Empty;
use anyhow::Result;
async fn server_upgrade(
mut req: Request<Incoming>,
) -> Result<Response<Empty<Bytes>>> {
let (response, fut) = upgrade::upgrade(&mut req)?;
tokio::spawn(async move {
if let Err(e) = handle_client(fut).await {
eprintln!("Error in websocket connection: {}", e);
}
});
Ok(response)
}
Use the handshake
module for client-side handshakes.
use fastwebsockets::handshake;
use fastwebsockets::WebSocket;
use hyper::{Request, body::Bytes, upgrade::Upgraded, header::{UPGRADE, CONNECTION}};
use http_body_util::Empty;
use tokio::net::TcpStream;
use std::future::Future;
use anyhow::Result;
async fn connect() -> Result<WebSocket<Upgraded>> {
let stream = TcpStream::connect("localhost:9001").await?;
let req = Request::builder()
.method("GET")
.uri("http:https://localhost:9001/")
.header("Host", "localhost:9001")
.header(UPGRADE, "websocket")
.header(CONNECTION, "upgrade")
.header(
"Sec-WebSocket-Key",
fastwebsockets::handshake::generate_key(),
)
.header("Sec-WebSocket-Version", "13")
.body(Empty::<Bytes>::new())?;
let (ws, _) = handshake::client(&SpawnExecutor, req, stream).await?;
Ok(ws)
}
// Tie hyper's executor to tokio runtime
struct SpawnExecutor;
impl<Fut> hyper::rt::Executor<Fut> for SpawnExecutor
where
Fut: Future + Send + 'static,
Fut::Output: Send + 'static,
{
fn execute(&self, fut: Fut) {
tokio::task::spawn(fut);
}
}
