Types

type Advanced

type Advanced = class

Advanced exposes a 1:1 low-level instance of the class, undocumented, for those who know what they are doing.

type Any

type Any interface {
	gd.IsClass
	AsWebSocketPeer() Instance
}

type Expanded

type Expanded [1]gdclass.WebSocketPeer

func (Expanded) Close

func (self Expanded) Close(code int, reason string)

Closes this WebSocket connection. [param code] is the status code for the closure (see RFC 6455 section 7.4 for a list of valid status codes). [param reason] is the human readable reason for closing the connection (can be any UTF-8 string that's smaller than 123 bytes). If [param code] is negative, the connection will be closed immediately without notifying the remote peer. [b]Note:[/b] To achieve a clean close, you will need to keep polling until [constant STATE_CLOSED] is reached. [b]Note:[/b] The Web export might not support all status codes. Please refer to browser-specific documentation for more details.

func (Expanded) ConnectToUrl

func (self Expanded) ConnectToUrl(url string, tls_client_options TLSOptions.Instance) error

Connects to the given URL. TLS certificates will be verified against the hostname when connecting using the [code]wss://[/code] protocol. You can pass the optional [param tls_client_options] parameter to customize the trusted certification authorities, or disable the common name verification. See [method TLSOptions.client] and [method TLSOptions.client_unsafe]. [b]Note:[/b] This method is non-blocking, and will return [constant OK] before the connection is established as long as the provided parameters are valid and the peer is not in an invalid state (e.g. already connected). Regularly call [method poll] (e.g. during [Node] process) and check the result of [method get_ready_state] to know whether the connection succeeds or fails. [b]Note:[/b] To avoid mixed content warnings or errors in Web, you may have to use a [param url] that starts with [code]wss://[/code] (secure) instead of [code]ws://[/code]. When doing so, make sure to use the fully qualified domain name that matches the one defined in the server's TLS certificate. Do not connect directly via the IP address for [code]wss://[/code] connections, as it won't match with the TLS certificate.

func (Expanded) Send

func (self Expanded) Send(message []byte, write_mode WriteMode) error

Sends the given [param message] using the desired [param write_mode]. When sending a [String], prefer using [method send_text].

type Extension

type Extension[T gdclass.Interface] struct{ gdclass.Extension[T, Instance] }

Extension can be embedded in a new struct to create an extension of this class. T should be the type that is embedding this Extension

func (*Extension[T]) AsObject

func (self *Extension[T]) AsObject() [1]gd.Object

func (*Extension[T]) AsPacketPeer

func (self *Extension[T]) AsPacketPeer() PacketPeer.Instance

func (*Extension[T]) AsRefCounted

func (self *Extension[T]) AsRefCounted() [1]gd.RefCounted

func (*Extension[T]) AsWebSocketPeer

func (self *Extension[T]) AsWebSocketPeer() Instance

type ID

type ID Object.ID

ID is a typed object ID (reference) to an instance of this class, use it to store references to objects with unknown lifetimes, as an ID will not panic on use if the underlying object has been destroyed.

func (ID) Instance

func (id ID) Instance() (Instance, bool)

type Instance

type Instance [1]gdclass.WebSocketPeer

This class represents WebSocket connection, and can be used as a WebSocket client (RFC 6455-compliant) or as a remote peer of a WebSocket server. You can send WebSocket binary frames using [method PacketPeer.put_packet], and WebSocket text frames using [method send] (prefer text frames when interacting with text-based API). You can check the frame type of the last packet via [method was_string_packet]. To start a WebSocket client, first call [method connect_to_url], then regularly call [method poll] (e.g. during [Node] process). You can query the socket state via [method get_ready_state], get the number of pending packets using [method PacketPeer.get_available_packet_count], and retrieve them via [method PacketPeer.get_packet]. [codeblocks] [gdscript] extends Node

var socket = WebSocketPeer.new()

func _ready():

socket.connect_to_url("wss://example.com")

func _process(delta):

socket.poll()
var state = socket.get_ready_state()
if state == WebSocketPeer.STATE_OPEN:
    while socket.get_available_packet_count():
        print("Packet: ", socket.get_packet())
elif state == WebSocketPeer.STATE_CLOSING:
    # Keep polling to achieve proper close.
    pass
elif state == WebSocketPeer.STATE_CLOSED:
    var code = socket.get_close_code()
    var reason = socket.get_close_reason()
    print("WebSocket closed with code: %d, reason %s. Clean: %s" % [code, reason, code != -1])
    set_process(false) # Stop processing.

[/gdscript] [/codeblocks] To use the peer as part of a WebSocket server refer to [method accept_stream] and the online tutorial.

var Nil Instance

Nil is a nil/null instance of the class. Equivalent to the zero value.

func New

func (Instance) AcceptStream

func (self Instance) AcceptStream(stream StreamPeer.Instance) error

Accepts a peer connection performing the HTTP handshake as a WebSocket server.

[param reason] is the human readable reason for closing the connection (can be any UTF-8 string that's smaller than 123 bytes). If [param code] is negative, the connection will be closed immediately without notifying the remote peer. [b]Note:[/b] To achieve a clean close, you will need to keep polling until [constant STATE_CLOSED] is reached. [b]Note:[/b] The Web export might not support all status codes. Please refer to browser-specific documentation for more details.

[b]Note:[/b] This method is non-blocking, and will return [constant OK] before the connection is established as long as the provided parameters are valid and the peer is not in an invalid state (e.g. already connected). Regularly call [method poll] (e.g. during [Node] process) and check the result of [method get_ready_state] to know whether the connection succeeds or fails. [b]Note:[/b] To avoid mixed content warnings or errors in Web, you may have to use a [param url] that starts with [code]wss://[/code] (secure) instead of [code]ws://[/code]. When doing so, make sure to use the fully qualified domain name that matches the one defined in the server's TLS certificate. Do not connect directly via the IP address for [code]wss://[/code] connections, as it won't match with the TLS certificate.
