Overview

This is my personal attempt at implementating the client side of the WebSocket portion of the SignalR protocol. I use it for various virtual currency trading platforms that use SignalR.

It supports CloudFlare-protected sites by default.

Examples

Simple example:

package main

import (
	"log"

	"github.com/carterjones/signalr"
)

func main() {
	// Prepare a SignalR client.
	c := signalr.New(
		"fake-server.definitely-not-real",
		"1.5",
		"/signalr",
		`[{"name":"awesomehub"}]`,
		nil,
	)

	// Define message and error handlers.
	msgHandler := func(msg signalr.Message) { log.Println(msg) }
	panicIfErr := func(err error) {
		if err != nil {
			log.Panic(err)
		}
	}

	// Start the connection.
	err := c.Run(msgHandler, panicIfErr)
	panicIfErr(err)

	// Wait indefinitely.
	select {}
}

Overview

Package signalr provides the client side implementation of the WebSocket portion of the SignalR protocol.

First things first: this was almost entirely written using https://blog.3d-logic.com/2015/03/29/signalr-on-the-wire-an-informal-description-of-the-signalr-protocol/ as a reference guide. It is an excellent technical write-up. Many thanks to Pawel Kadluczka for writing that and sharing it with the public. If you want deep-dive technical details of how this all works, read that blog. I won't try to replicate it here.

At a high level, the WebSocket portion of SignalR goes through the following steps:

  • negotiate: use HTTP/HTTPS to get connection info for how to connect to the websocket endpoint
  • connect: attempt to connect to the websocket endpoint
  • start: make the WebSocket connection usable by SignalR connections

See the provided examples for how to use this library.

Example (Basic)

This example shows the most basic way to start a websocket connection. 

package main

import (
	"log"

	"github.com/carterjones/signalr"
)

func main() {
	// Prepare a SignalR client.
	c := signalr.New(
		"fake-server.definitely-not-real",
		"1.5",
		"/signalr",
		`[{"name":"awesomehub"}]`,
		nil,
	)

	// Define message and error handlers.
	msgHandler := func(msg signalr.Message) { log.Println(msg) }
	panicIfErr := func(err error) {
		if err != nil {
			log.Panic(err)
		}
	}

	// Start the connection.
	err := c.Run(msgHandler, panicIfErr)
	panicIfErr(err)

	// Wait indefinitely.
	select {}
}

Output:
Example (Complex)

This example shows how to manually perform each of the initialization steps. 

package main

import (
	"log"

	"github.com/carterjones/signalr"
)

func main() {
	// Prepare a SignalR client.
	c := signalr.New(
		"fake-server.definitely-not-real",
		"1.5",
		"/signalr",
		`[{"name":"awesomehub"}]`,
		map[string]string{"custom-key": "custom-value"},
	)

	// Perform any optional modifications to the client here. Read the docs for
	// all the available options that are exposed via public fields.

	// Define message and error handlers.
	msgHandler := func(msg signalr.Message) { log.Println(msg) }
	panicIfErr := func(err error) {
		if err != nil {
			log.Panic(err)
		}
	}

	// Manually perform the initialization routine.
	err := c.Negotiate()
	panicIfErr(err)
	conn, err := c.Connect()
	panicIfErr(err)
	err = c.Start(conn)
	panicIfErr(err)

	// Begin the message reading loop.
	go c.ReadMessages(msgHandler, panicIfErr)

	// Wait indefinitely.
	select {}
}

Functions

func TestCompleteHandler added in v0.1.4 

func TestCompleteHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request)

TestCompleteHandler combines the negotiate, connect, reconnect, and start handlers found in this package into one complete response handler.

func TestConnect added in v0.1.4 

func TestConnect(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request)

TestConnect provides a sample "/connect" handling function.

If an error occurs while upgrading the websocket, it will panic.

func TestNegotiate added in v0.1.4 

func TestNegotiate(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request)

TestNegotiate provides a sample "/negotiate" handling function.

If an error occurs while writing the response data, it will panic.

func TestReconnect added in v0.1.4 

func TestReconnect(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request)

TestReconnect provides a sample "/reconnect" handling function. It simply calls TestConnect.

func TestStart added in v0.1.4 

func TestStart(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request)

TestStart provides a sample "/start" handling function.

If an error occurs while writing the response data, it will panic.

Client represents a SignlR client. It manages connections so that the caller doesn't have to.

func New 

func New(host, protocol, endpoint, connectionData string, params map[string]string) *Client

func (*Client) Conn 

func (c *Client) Conn() WebsocketConn

Conn returns the underlying websocket connection.

func (*Client) Connect 

func (c *Client) Connect() (*websocket.Conn, error)

Connect implements the connect step of the SignalR connection sequence.

func (c *Client) Negotiate() error

Negotiate implements the negotiate step of the SignalR connection sequence.

func main() {
	// Prepare a SignalR client.
	c := signalr.New(

		"1.5",
		"/signalr",
		`[{"name":"awesomehub"}]`,
		nil,
	)

	// Define handlers.
	msgHandler := func(msg signalr.Message) { log.Println(msg) }
	panicIfErr := func(err error) {
		if err != nil {
			log.Panic(err)
		}
	}

	// Start the connection.

Send sends a message to the websocket connection.

func (*Client) SetConn 

func (c *Client) SetConn(conn WebsocketConn)

SetConn changes the underlying websocket connection to the specified connection. This is done using a mutex to wait until existing read operations have completed.

func (*Client) Start

const (
	// HTTPS is the literal string, "https".
	HTTPS Scheme = "https"

	// HTTP is the literal string, "http".
	HTTP Scheme = "http"

	// WSS is the literal string, "wss".
	WSS Scheme = "wss"

	// WS is the literal string, "ws".
	WS Scheme = "ws"
)

type WebsocketConn 

type WebsocketConn interface {
	// ReadMessage is modeled after the function defined at
	// https://godoc.org/github.com/gorilla/websocket#Conn.ReadMessage
	//
	// At a high level, it reads messages and returns:
	//  - the type of message read
	//  - the bytes that were read
	//  - any errors encountered during reading the message
	ReadMessage() (messageType int, p []byte, err error)

	// WriteJSON is modeled after the function defined at
	// https://godoc.org/github.com/gorilla/websocket#Conn.WriteJSON
	//
	// At a high level, it writes a structure to the underlying websocket and
	// returns any error that was encountered during the write operation.
	WriteJSON(v interface{}) error
}

WebsocketConn is a combination of MessageReader and JSONWriter. It is used to provide an interface to objects that can read from and write to a websocket connection.
