WebSocket handshake with Ruby and EM::WebSocket::Server
- by Chad Johnson
I am trying to create a simple WebSocket connection in JavaScript against my Rails app. I get the following:
WebSocket connection to 'ws://localhost:4000/' failed: Error during WebSocket handshake: 'Sec-WebSocket-Accept' header is missing
What am I doing wrong? Here is my code:
JavaScript:
var socket = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:4000');
socket.onopen = function() {
var handshake =
"GET / HTTP/1.1\n" +
"Host: localhost\n" +
"Upgrade: websocket\n" +
"Connection: Upgrade\n" +
"Sec-WebSocket-Key: x3JJHMbDL1EzLkh9GBhXDw==\n" +
"Sec-WebSocket-Protocol: quote\n" +
"Sec-WebSocket-Version: 13\n" +
"Origin: http://localhost\n";
socket.send(handshake);
};
socket.onmessage = function(data) {
console.log(data);
};
Ruby:
require 'rubygems'
require 'em-websocket-server'
module QuoteService
class WebSocket < EventMachine::WebSocket::Server
def on_connect
handshake_response = "HTTP/1.1 101 Switching Protocols\n"
handshake_response << "Upgrade: websocket\n"
handshake_response << "Connection: Upgrade\n"
handshake_response << "Sec-WebSocket-Accept: HSmrc0sMlYUkAGmm5OPpG2HaGWk=\n"
handshake_response << "Sec-WebSocket-Protocol: quote\n"
send_message(handshake_response)
end
def on_receive(data)
puts 'RECEIVED: ' + data
end
end
end
EventMachine.run do
print 'Starting WebSocket server...'
EventMachine.start_server '0.0.0.0', 4000, QuoteService::WebSocket
puts 'running'
end
The handshake headers are per Wikipedia.
