HTML5 WebSocket

WebSocket is a protocol for full-duplex communication on a single TCP connection that HTML5 began to provide.

In the WebSocket API, the browser and the server only need to perform a handshake action, and then a fast channel is formed between the browser and the server. Data can be transmitted directly between the two.

The browser sends a request to the server to establish a WebSocket connection through JavaScript. After the connection is established, the client and the server can directly exchange data through the TCP connection.

After you obtain the Web Socket connection, you can send data to the server through the send() method, and receive the data returned by the server through the onmessage event.

The following API is used to create WebSocket objects.

var Socket = new WebSocket(url, [protocal] );

The first parameter url in the above code, Specify the URL to connect to. The second parameter protocol is optional and specifies acceptable subprotocols.

WebSocket Properties

The following are the properties of the WebSocket object. Suppose we use the above code to create a Socket object:

Properties describe





Socket.readyState

The read-only attribute readyState represents the connection status and can be the following values:

  • 0 - Indicates that the connection has not yet been established.

  • 1 - Indicates that the connection is established and communication is possible.

  • 2 - Indicates that the connection is being closed.

  • 3 - Indicates that the connection has been closed or the connection cannot be opened.


##Socket.bufferedAmount

Read-only property bufferedAmount The number of UTF-8 text bytes that have been put into the queue by send() and are waiting for transmission, but have not yet been sent.

WebSocket Events

The following are related events for the WebSocket object. Suppose we use the above code to create a Socket object:

## openSocket. onopenTriggered when the connection is established messageSocket.onmessageTriggered when the client receives data from the server errorSocket.onerrorTriggered when a communication error occurs closeSocket .oncloseTriggered when the connection is closed

WebSocket methods

The following are the relevant methods of the WebSocket object. Assume that we use the above code to create a Socket object:

EventEvent handler Description
## Socket.send()Use the connection to send data Socket.close ()Close connection

WebSocket Example

The WebSocket protocol is essentially a TCP-based protocol.

In order to establish a WebSocket connection, the client browser must first initiate an HTTP request to the server. This request is different from the usual HTTP request and contains some additional header information, including the additional header information "Upgrade: WebSocket" Indicates that this is an HTTP request to apply for a protocol upgrade. The server parses these additional header information and then generates response information and returns it to the client. The WebSocket connection between the client and the server is established, and both parties can communicate freely through this connection channel. information, and this connection will continue to exist until either the client or the server actively closes the connection.

HTML and JavaScript on the client side

Currently, most browsers support the WebSocket() interface, you can use the following Examples of browsers to try: Chrome, Mozilla, Opera and Safari.

Install pywebsocket

Before executing the above program, we need to create A service that supports WebSocket. Download mod_pywebsocket from pywebsocket, or use the git command to download:

git clone https://github.com/google/pywebsocket.git

mod_pywebsocket requires python environment support

mod_pywebsocket is a Web Socket extension for Apache HTTP. The installation steps are as follows:

  • Unzip the downloaded file.

  • Enter the pywebsocket directory.

  • Execute command:

$ python setup.py build
$ sudo python setup.py install

  • View documentation:

##$ pydoc mod_pywebsocket

Start the service

Execute the following command in the pywebsocket/mod_pywebsocket directory:

$ sudo python standalone.py -p 9998 -w ../example/

The above command will open a service with port number 9998, use -w To set the directory where the handler echo_wsh.py is located.

Now we can open the php_websocket.html file created earlier in the Chrome browser. If your browser supports WebSocket(), click "Run WebSocket", you can see the pop-up window of each step of the entire process, process Gif demonstration:

1.gif

In our After stopping the service, "Connection closed..." will pop up.
