12//! # A websocket trillium handler
13//!
14//! There are three primary ways to use this crate
15//!
16//! ## With an async function that receives a [`WebSocketConn`]
17//!
18//! This is the simplest way to use trillium websockets, but does not
19//! provide any of the affordances that implementing the
20//! [`WebSocketHandler`] trait does. It is best for very simple websockets
21//! or for usages that require moving the WebSocketConn elsewhere in an
22//! application. The WebSocketConn is fully owned at this point, and will
23//! disconnect when dropped, not when the async function passed to
24//! `websocket` completes.
25//!
26//! ```
27//! use futures_lite::stream::StreamExt;
28//! use trillium_websockets::{Message, WebSocketConn, websocket};
29//!
30//! let handler = websocket(|mut conn: WebSocketConn| async move {
31//! while let Some(Ok(Message::Text(input))) = conn.next().await {
32//! conn.send_string(format!("received your message: {}", &input))
33//! .await;
34//! }
35//! });
36//! # // tests at tests/tests.rs for example simplicity
37//! ```
38//!
39//!
40//! ## Implementing [`WebSocketHandler`]
41//!
42//! [`WebSocketHandler`] provides support for sending outbound messages as a
43//! stream, and simplifies common patterns like executing async code on
44//! received messages.
45//!
46//! ## Using [`JsonWebSocketHandler`]
47//!
48//! [`JsonWebSocketHandler`] provides a thin serialization and
49//! deserialization layer on top of [`WebSocketHandler`] for this common
50//! use case. See the [`JsonWebSocketHandler`] documentation for example
51//! usage. In order to use this trait, the `json` cargo feature must be
52//! enabled.
53//!
54//! ## Origin checking
55//!
56//! Browsers do not apply CORS to websocket handshakes, so a page on any site can open a socket to
57//! any server, and the browser attaches the visitor's cookies to that handshake. RFC 6455 §10.2
58//! assigns the origin check to the server for exactly this reason; skipping it is the
59//! cross-site websocket hijacking vulnerability.
60//!
61//! By default this handler accepts a handshake only if its `Origin` names the same host as the
62//! request's `Host` or `:authority`, or if there is no `Origin` at all, which means the client is
63//! not a browser. Rejected handshakes receive a `403 Forbidden` and log which origin was refused.
64//!
65//! ```
66//! # use trillium_websockets::{WebSocket, WebSocketConn};
67//! # let handler = |_: WebSocketConn| async {};
68//! WebSocket::new(handler); // same-origin (default)
69//! //
70//! # let handler = |_: WebSocketConn| async {};
71//! WebSocket::new(handler).allow_origins(["https://app.example.com"]);
72//! # let handler = |_: WebSocketConn| async {};
73//! WebSocket::new(handler).allow_origin_fn(|origin| origin == Some("https://app.example.com"));
74//! # let handler = |_: WebSocketConn| async {};
75//! WebSocket::new(handler).allow_any_origin(); // opt out
76//! ```
77//!
78//! An application that serves its pages from one host and its sockets from another — say pages on
79//! `app.example.com` and sockets on `api.example.com` — must name the page origin with
80//! [`allow_origins`][WebSocket::allow_origins].
81//!
82//! ## Message size
83//!
84//! Inbound messages are assembled in memory before they reach a handler, up to tungstenite's
85//! default of 64 MiB per message. Applications that exchange small messages should lower that
86//! with [`with_protocol_config`][WebSocket::with_protocol_config].
