Protocol::WebSocket - WebSocket protocol
# Server side my $hs = Protocol::WebSocket::Handshake::Server->new; $hs->parse('some data from the client'); $hs->is_done; # tells us when handshake is done my $frame = $hs->build_frame; $frame->append('some data from the client'); while (defined(my $message = $frame->next)) { if ($frame->is_close) { # Send close frame back send( $hs->build_frame( type => 'close', version => $version )->to_bytes ); return; } # We got a message! }
Client/server WebSocket message and frame parser/constructor. This module does not provide a WebSocket server or client, but is made for using in http servers or clients to provide WebSocket support.
Protocol::WebSocket supports the following WebSocket protocol versions:
draft-ietf-hybi-17 (latest) draft-ietf-hybi-10 draft-ietf-hybi-00 (with HAProxy support) draft-hixie-75
By default the latest version is used. The WebSocket version is detected automatically on the server side. On the client side you have set a "version" attribute to an appropriate value.
Protocol::WebSocket itself does not contain any code and cannot be used directly. Instead the following modules should be used:
Protocol::WebSocket::Server
Server helper class.
Protocol::WebSocket::Client
Client helper class.
Protocol::WebSocket::Handshake::Server
Server handshake parser and constructor.
Protocol::WebSocket::Handshake::Client
Client handshake parser and constructor.
Protocol::WebSocket::Frame
WebSocket frame parser and constructor.
Protocol::WebSocket::Request
Low level WebSocket request parser and constructor.
Protocol::WebSocket::Response
Low level WebSocket response parser and constructor.
Protocol::WebSocket::URL
Low level WebSocket url parser and constructor.
For examples on how to use Protocol::WebSocket with various event loops see "examples/" directory in the distribution.
