Source code for websockets.handshake
"""
:mod:`websockets.handshake` provides helpers for the WebSocket handshake.
See `section 4 of RFC 6455`_.
.. _section 4 of RFC 6455: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6455#section-4
Some checks cannot be performed because they depend too much on the
context; instead, they're documented below.
To accept a connection, a server must:
- Read the request, check that the method is GET, and check the headers with
:func:`check_request`,
- Send a 101 response to the client with the headers created by
:func:`build_response` if the request is valid; otherwise, send an
appropriate HTTP error code.
To open a connection, a client must:
- Send a GET request to the server with the headers created by
:func:`build_request`,
- Read the response, check that the status code is 101, and check the headers
with :func:`check_response`.
