The WebSocketTransformer provides the ability to upgrade a HttpRequest to a WebSocket connection. It supports both upgrading a single HttpRequest and upgrading a stream of HttpRequests.
To upgrade a single HttpRequest use the static upgrade method.
HttpServer server;
server.listen((request) {
if (...) {
WebSocketTransformer.upgrade(request).then((websocket) {
...
});
} else {
// Do normal HTTP request processing.
}
});
To transform a stream of HttpRequest events as it implements a stream transformer that transforms a stream of HttpRequest into a stream of WebSockets by upgrading each HttpRequest from the HTTP or HTTPS server, to the WebSocket protocol.
server.transform(new WebSocketTransformer()).listen((webSocket) => ...);
This transformer strives to implement WebSockets as specified by RFC6455.

Static Methods
-
isUpgradeRequest(
HttpRequest request) → bool -
Checks whether the request is a valid WebSocket upgrade request.
-
upgrade(
HttpRequest request, {dynamic protocolSelector(List<String> protocols)}) → Future<WebSocket> -
Upgrades a HttpRequest to a WebSocket connection. If the request is not a valid WebSocket upgrade request an HTTP response with status code 500 will be returned. Otherwise the returned future will complete with the WebSocket when the upgrade pocess is complete.…
