# WebSocket Ruby
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Universal Ruby library to handle WebSocket protocol. It focuses on providing abstraction layer over [WebSocket API](http://dev.w3.org/html5/websockets/) instead of providing server or client functionality.

|
|
**Autobahn tests:** [server](http://imanel.github.com/websocket-ruby/autobahn/server/), [client](http://imanel.github.com/websocket-ruby/autobahn/client/)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Currently WebSocket Ruby supports all existing drafts of WebSocket, which include:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- [hixie-75](http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hixie-thewebsocketprotocol-75)
|
|||
|
|
- [hixie-76](http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hixie-thewebsocketprotocol-76)
|
|||
|
|
- [all hybi drafts (00-13)](http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-hybi-thewebsocketprotocol-17)
|
|||
|
|
- [RFC 6455](http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc6455/)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Installation
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
WebSocket Ruby has no external dependencies, so it can be installed from source or directly from rubygems:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
gem install "websocket"
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
or via Gemfile:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
gem "websocket"
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Server handshake
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
``` ruby
|
|||
|
|
@handshake = WebSocket::Handshake::Server.new
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
# Parse client request
|
|||
|
|
@handshake << <<EOF
|
|||
|
|
GET /demo HTTP/1.1\r
|
|||
|
|
Upgrade: websocket\r
|
|||
|
|
Connection: Upgrade\r
|
|||
|
|
Host: example.com\r
|
|||
|
|
Origin: http://example.com\r
|
|||
|
|
Sec-WebSocket-Version: 13\r
|
|||
|
|
Sec-WebSocket-Key: dGhlIHNhbXBsZSBub25jZQ==\r
|
|||
|
|
\r
|
|||
|
|
EOF
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
# All data received?
|
|||
|
|
@handshake.finished?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
# No parsing errors?
|
|||
|
|
@handshake.valid?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
# Create response
|
|||
|
|
@handshake.to_s # HTTP/1.1 101 Switching Protocols
|
|||
|
|
# Upgrade: websocket
|
|||
|
|
# Connection: Upgrade
|
|||
|
|
# Sec-WebSocket-Accept: s3pPLMBiTxaQ9kYGzzhZRbK+xOo=
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Client handshake
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
``` ruby
|
|||
|
|
@handshake = WebSocket::Handshake::Client.new(url: 'ws://example.com', headers: { 'Cookie' => 'SESSIONID=1234' })
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
# Create request
|
|||
|
|
@handshake.to_s # GET /demo HTTP/1.1
|
|||
|
|
# Upgrade: websocket
|
|||
|
|
# Connection: Upgrade
|
|||
|
|
# Host: example.com
|
|||
|
|
# Cookie: SESSIONID=1234
|
|||
|
|
# Origin: http://example.com
|
|||
|
|
# Sec-WebSocket-Version: 13
|
|||
|
|
# Sec-WebSocket-Key: dGhlIHNhbXBsZSBub25jZQ==
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
# Parse server response
|
|||
|
|
@handshake << <<EOF
|
|||
|
|
HTTP/1.1 101 Switching Protocols\r
|
|||
|
|
Upgrade: websocket\r
|
|||
|
|
Connection: Upgrade\r
|
|||
|
|
Sec-WebSocket-Accept: s3pPLMBiTxaQ9kYGzzhZRbK+xOo=\r
|
|||
|
|
\r
|
|||
|
|
EOF
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
# All data received?
|
|||
|
|
@handshake.finished?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
# No parsing errors?
|
|||
|
|
@handshake.valid?
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Parsing and constructing frames
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
``` ruby
|
|||
|
|
# Prepare frame for sending
|
|||
|
|
frame = WebSocket::Frame::Outgoing::Server.new(version: @handshake.version, data: "Hello", type: :text)
|
|||
|
|
frame.to_s # "\x81\x05\x48\x65\x6c\x6c\x6f"
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
# Parse incoming frames
|
|||
|
|
frame = WebSocket::Frame::Incoming::Server.new(version: @handshake.version)
|
|||
|
|
frame << "\x81\x05\x48\x65\x6c\x6c\x6f\x81\x06\x77\x6f\x72\x6c\x64\x21"
|
|||
|
|
frame.next # "Hello"
|
|||
|
|
frame.next # "world!""
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Examples & Projects using WebSocket-Ruby
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- [WebSocket-EventMachine-Client](https://github.com/imanel/websocket-eventmachine-client) - client based on EventMachine
|
|||
|
|
- [WebSocket-EventMachine-Server](https://github.com/imanel/websocket-eventmachine-server) - server based on EventMachine (drop-in replacement for EM-WebSocket)
|
|||
|
|
- [Selenium-WebDriver](https://rubygems.org/gems/selenium-webdriver) - tool for writing automated tests of websites
|
|||
|
|
- [Rubame](https://github.com/saward/Rubame) - websocket game server
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Native extension
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
WebSocket gem is written in pure Ruby, without any dependencies or native extensions and still is one of the fastest implementations of WebSocket API. However, if you want to increase it's speed even further, I created additional gem with dedicated native extensions for both C and Java. Those extensions provide 20-30% increase in speed(more accurate comparison can be found in autobahn test results)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In order to use native extension just install [websocket-native](http://github.com/imanel/websocket-ruby-native) gem or add it to Gemfile - WebSocket will automatically detect and load it.
