-%% @doc Handler for HTTP WebSocket requests.
-%%
-%% WebSocket handlers must implement five callbacks: <em>init/3</em>,
-%% <em>websocket_init/3</em>, <em>websocket_handle/3</em>,
-%% <em>websocket_info/3</em> and <em>websocket_terminate/3</em>.
-%% These callbacks will only be called if the connection is upgraded
-%% to WebSocket in the HTTP handler's <em>init/3</em> callback.
-%% They are then called in that order, although <em>websocket_handle/3</em>
-%% will be called for each packet received, and <em>websocket_info</em>
-%% for each message received.
-%%
-%% <em>websocket_init/3</em> is meant for initialization. It receives
-%% information about the transport and protocol used, along with the handler
-%% options from the dispatch list. You can define a request-wide state here.
-%% If you are going to want to compact the request, you should probably do it
-%% here.
-%%
-%% <em>websocket_handle/3</em> receives the data from the socket. It can reply
-%% something, do nothing or close the connection.
-%%
-%% <em>websocket_info/3</em> receives messages sent to the process. It has
-%% the same reply format as <em>websocket_handle/3</em> described above. Note
-%% that unlike in a <em>gen_server</em>, when <em>websocket_info/3</em>
-%% replies something, it is always to the socket, not to the process that
-%% originated the message.
-%%
-%% <em>websocket_terminate/3</em> is meant for cleaning up. It also receives
-%% the request and the state previously defined, along with a reason for
-%% termination.
-%%
-%% All of <em>websocket_init/3</em>, <em>websocket_handle/3</em> and
-%% <em>websocket_info/3</em> can decide to hibernate the process by adding
-%% an extra element to the returned tuple, containing the atom
-%% <em>hibernate</em>. Doing so helps save memory and improve CPU usage.
