WS_REQUEST_KEY(3) libdill Library Functions WS_REQUEST_KEY(3) NAME ws_request_key - generates an unique value for Sec-WebSocket-Key field SYNOPSIS #include <libdill.h> int ws_request_key( char* request_key); 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 is a helper function that can be used when doing a custom HTTP hand- shake for the WebSocket protocol (see WS_NOHTTP flag). It generates an unique RFC-compliant key to be filled into Sec-WebSocket-Key of the HTTP request. The generated key is null-terminated. request_key: Buffer to hold the generated request key. It must be at least WS_KEY_SIZE bytes long. This function is not available if libdill is compiled with --disable-sock- ets option. RETURN VALUE In case of success the function returns 0. In case of error it returns -1 and sets errno to one of the values below. ERRORS * EINVAL: Invalid argument. EXAMPLE char request_key[WS_KEY_SIZE]; ws_request_key(request_key); http_sendfield(s, "Sec-WebSocket-Key", request_key, -1); SEE ALSO mrecv(3) mrecvl(3) msend(3) msendl(3) ws_attach_client(3) ws_at- tach_client_mem(3) ws_attach_server(3) ws_attach_server_mem(3) ws_detach(3) ws_done(3) ws_recv(3) ws_recvl(3) ws_response_key(3) ws_send(3) ws_sendl(3) ws_status(3) libdill WS_REQUEST_KEY(3)
