The module cowboy_websocket implements Websocket as a Ranch protocol. It also defines a callback interface for handling Websocket connections.

Callbacks

-
-

Websocket handlers must implement the following callback -interface:

-
-
-
init(Req, State)
-    -> {cowboy_websocket, Req, State}
-     | {cowboy_websocket, Req, State, Opts}
-
-websocket_init(State)            -> CallResult  %% optional
-websocket_handle(InFrame, State) -> CallResult
-websocket_info(Info, State)      -> CallResult
-
-terminate(Reason, PartialReq, State) -> ok      %% optional
-
-Req        :: cowboy_req:req()
-PartialReq :: map()
-State      :: any()
-Opts       :: cowboy_websocket:opts()
-InFrame    :: {text | binary | ping | pong, binary()}
-OutFrame   :: cow_ws:frame()                    %% see types below
-Info       :: any()
-
-CallResult :: {ok, State}
-            | {ok, State, hibernate}
-            | {reply, OutFrame | [OutFrame], State}
-            | {reply, OutFrame | [OutFrame], State, hibernate}
-            | {stop, State}
-
-Reason     :: normal | stop | timeout
-            | remote | {remote, cow_ws:close_code(), binary()}
-            | {error, badencoding | badframe | closed | atom()}
-            | {crash, error | exit | throw, any()}
-

The init/2 callback is common to all handlers. To upgrade -the connection to Websocket, it must return cowboy_websocket -as the first element of the tuple.

-

Any operation requiring the HTTP request must be done in the -init/2 function, as the Req object will not be available -after it returns. Websocket sub-protocol selection should -therefore be done in this function.

-

The optional websocket_init/1 callback will be called once -the connection has been upgraded to Websocket. It can be used -to perform any required initialization of the handler.

-

Note that the init/2 function does not run in the same -process as the Websocket callbacks. Any Websocket-specific -initialization must be done in websocket_init/1.

-

The websocket_handle/2 callback will be called for every -frame received. The websocket_info/2 callback will be -called for every Erlang message received.

-

All three Websocket callbacks may send one or more frames -back to the client (by returning a reply tuple) or terminate -the connection (by sending a close frame or returning a stop -tuple).

-

The optional terminate/3 callback will ultimately be called -with the reason for the termination of the connection. This -callback is common to all handlers. Note that Websocket will -not provide the full Req object by default, to save memory.

-

Cowboy will terminate the process right after closing the -Websocket connection. This means that there is no need to -perform any cleanup in the terminate/3 callback.

-

The following terminate reasons are defined for Websocket -connections:

-
-
-normal -
-
-

- The connection was closed normally before establishing a Websocket - connection. This typically happens if an ok tuple is returned - from the init/2 callback. -

The following terminate reasons are defined for Websocket connections:

+
normal
+

The connection was closed normally before establishing a Websocket connection. This typically happens if an ok tuple is returned from the init/2 callback.

-
-remote -
-
-

- The remote endpoint closed the connection without giving any - further details. -

+

+

The remote endpoint closed the connection without giving any further details.

-
-{remote, Code, Payload} -
-
-

- The remote endpoint closed the connection with the given - Code and Payload as the reason. -

+
{remote, Code, Payload}
+

The remote endpoint closed the connection with the given Code and Payload as the reason.

-
-stop -
-
-

- The handler requested to close the connection, either by returning - a stop tuple or by sending a close frame. -

+
stop
+

The handler requested to close the connection, either by returning a stop tuple or by sending a close frame.

-
-timeout -
-
-

- The connection has been closed due to inactivity. The timeout - value can be configured from init/2. -

+
timeout
+

The connection has been closed due to inactivity. The timeout value can be configured from init/2.

-
-{crash, Class, Reason} -
-
-

- A crash occurred in the handler. Class and Reason can be - used to obtain more information about the crash. The function - erlang:get_stacktrace/0 can also be called to obtain the - stacktrace of the process when the crash occurred. -

+
{crash, Class, Reason}
+

A crash occurred in the handler. Class and Reason can be used to obtain more information about the crash. The function erlang:get_stacktrace/0 can also be called to obtain the stacktrace of the process when the crash occurred.

-
-{error, badencoding} -
-
-

- A text frame was sent by the client with invalid encoding. All - text frames must be valid UTF-8. -
