WS_DETACH(3)		   libdill Library Functions		  WS_DETACH(3)

NAME
       ws_detach  -  terminates	 WebSocket protocol and	returns	the underlying
       socket

SYNOPSIS
	      #include <libdill.h>

	      int ws_detach(
		  int s,
		  int status,
		  const	void* buf,
		  size_t len,
		  int64_t deadline);

DESCRIPTION
       WARNING:	This is	experimental functionality and the API may  change  in
       the future.

       WebSocket  is  a	message-based protocol defined in RFC 6455.  It	can be
       used as a bidirectional communication channel for communication with  a
       web server.

       This function does the terminal WebSocket handshake and returns the un-
       derlying	 socket	to the user.  The socket is closed even	in the case of
       error.

       s: Handle of the	WebSocket socket.

       status: Status to send to the peer.  If set zero,  no  status  will  be
       sent.

       buf:  Message  to send to the peer.  If set to NULL, no message will be
       sent.  Note that	WebSocket protocol limits the sizeof the shutdown mes-
       sage to 125 bytes.

       len: Size of the	message	to send	to the peer, in	bytes.

       deadline: A point in time when the operation should time	out,  in  mil-
       liseconds.   Use	the now	function to get	your current point in time.  0
       means immediate timeout,	i.e., perform the operation if possible	or re-
       turn without blocking if	not.  -1 means no  deadline,  i.e.,  the  call
       will block forever if the operation cannot be performed.

       This  function  is  not	available  if  libdill is compiled with	--dis-
       able-sockets option.

RETURN VALUE
       In case of success the function returns underlying socket  handle.   In
       case of error it	returns	-1 and sets errno to one of the	values below.

ERRORS
        EBADF:	Invalid	handle.

        ECANCELED: Current coroutine was canceled.

        ECONNRESET: Broken connection.

        ENOTSUP: The handle is	not an WebSocket protocol handle.

        ETIMEDOUT: Deadline was reached.

EXAMPLE
	      struct ipaddr addr;
	      ipaddr_remote(&addr, "www.example.org", 80, 0, -1);
	      int s = tcp_connect(&addr, -1);
	      s	= ws_attach_client(s, "/", "www.example.org", WS_TEXT, -1);
	      ws_send(s, WS_TEXT, "Hello, world!", 13, -1);
	      int flags;
	      char buf[256];
	      ssize_t sz = ws_recv(s, &flags, buf, sizeof(buf),	-1);
	      assert(flags & WS_TEXT);
	      s	= ws_detach(s, -1);
	      tcp_close(s, -1);
