The JSON decoder returns io.EOF when a message is empty or all whitespace. Convert io.EOF return values from the JSON decoder to io.ErrUnexpectedEOF so that applications can distinguish between an error reading the JSON value and the connection closing. |

RFC 6455 Features | ||
Passes Autobahn Test Suite | Yes | No |
Receive fragmented message | Yes | No, see note 1 |
Send close message | Yes | No |
Send pings and receive pongs | Yes | No |
Get the type of a received data message | Yes | Yes, see note 2 |
Other Features | ||
Limit size of received message | Yes | No |
Read message using io.Reader | Yes | No, see note 3 |
Write message using io.WriteCloser | Yes | No, see note 3 |
Notes:
- Large messages are fragmented in Chrome's new WebSocket implementation.
- The application can get the type of a received data message by implementing a Codec marshal function.
- The go.net io.Reader and io.Writer operate across WebSocket frame boundaries. Read returns when the input buffer is full or a frame boundary is encountered. Each call to Write sends a single frame message. The Gorilla io.Reader and io.WriteCloser operate on a single WebSocket message.
