Steven Scott a51a35ae32 Improve header parsing code
Because the net/http server removes \r\n from multi-line header values,
there's no need to to check for \r or \n when skipping whitespace in
headers (see https://godoc.org/net/textproto#Reader.ReadMIMEHeader).
Given this fact, the whitespace test can be simplified to b == ' ' || b
== '\t'.  There's no need for the isSpaceOctet bit field in octetTypes.

The isTokenOctet bit field is the only bit field remaining after the
removal of isSpaceOctet.  Simplify the code by replacing the
isTokenOctet bit test in octetTypes with an array of booleans called
isTokenOctet.

Declare isTokenOctet as a composite literal instead of constructing it
at runtime.

Add documentation to core functions for parsing HTTP headers.

Gorilla WebSocket

Gorilla WebSocket is a Go implementation of the WebSocket protocol.

Build Status GoDoc

Documentation

Status

The Gorilla WebSocket package provides a complete and tested implementation of the WebSocket protocol. The package API is stable.

Installation

go get github.com/gorilla/websocket

Protocol Compliance

The Gorilla WebSocket package passes the server tests in the Autobahn Test Suite using the application in the examples/autobahn subdirectory.

Gorilla WebSocket compared with other packages

RFC 6455 Features
Passes Autobahn Test SuiteYesNo
Receive fragmented messageYesNo, see note 1
Send close messageYesNo
Send pings and receive pongsYesNo
Get the type of a received data messageYesYes, see note 2
Other Features
Compression ExtensionsExperimentalNo
Read message using io.ReaderYesNo, see note 3
Write message using io.WriteCloserYesNo, see note 3

Notes:

  1. Large messages are fragmented in Chrome's new WebSocket implementation.
  2. The application can get the type of a received data message by implementing a Codec marshal function.
  3. 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.
