gorilla/websocket

Features

• Real-Time Communication Protocols - Establishing persistent connections between clients and servers to exchange data instantly without the overhead of repeated standard HTTP request cycles.
• Realtime Communication Protocols - Establishing persistent connections between clients and servers to exchange data instantly without the overhead of repeated standard HTTP request cycles.
• WebSocket Implementations - Handles the low-level complexities of the persistent bidirectional communication protocol to enable reliable data exchange between web clients and servers.
• Request Routers - Directs incoming web traffic to specific code handlers by matching request paths and methods to defined patterns.
• WebSockets - Creates persistent bidirectional communication channels to exchange data instantly without repeated request cycles.
• Middleware Composition Layers - Processes incoming web requests through reusable layers to handle common tasks before reaching application logic.
• Request Routing - Directs incoming requests to specific code handlers by matching paths and methods while extracting dynamic parameters.
• Request Middleware - Passing incoming traffic through reusable layers to handle common tasks like logging or authentication before reaching the final application logic.
• Concurrent Stream Handlers - Manages multiple active socket connections simultaneously using lightweight execution threads to maintain independent state for each client.
• Connection Management - Supports high-frequency message exchange by managing multiple active network sockets with lightweight threads.
• Connection Managers - Maintaining multiple active network sockets simultaneously using lightweight execution threads to support high-frequency message exchange for many connected users.
• Form Handling Utilities - Converting incoming form values into structured data objects to simplify the process of mapping user input to backend application logic.
• Communication and Real-time - A widely used and well-tested WebSocket implementation.
• Protocol Upgrade Negotiators - Transitions standard stateless web requests into persistent bidirectional streams by validating protocol headers and handshake requirements.
• CSRF Protection - Validates incoming requests using security tokens to ensure actions are performed by authorized users.
• Session Managers - Maintains user identity and preferences across multiple requests using cookies or server-side storage mechanisms.
• Remote Procedure Invocation Systems - Allows external systems to execute internal object methods over standard web protocols as if they were local.
• Protocol Upgrades - Upgrades standard stateless HTTP connections to persistent bidirectional streams via header negotiation.
• Session Management - Tracks user state across requests using cookies or server-side storage to maintain identity and preferences.
• Binary Data Processors - Encapsulates application data into discrete binary frames using memory buffers to optimize high-frequency network throughput.
• Stream Processing - Optimizes network data exchange by using internal memory buffers to minimize system calls.
• Stream Processors - Managing buffered input and output operations to efficiently handle continuous data flows while minimizing system calls during high-frequency network communication.
• Cookie Security - Protects client-side data by encoding and encrypting cookie values to prevent tampering.
• Remote Procedure Calls - Makes internal object methods available to external callers so remote systems can execute logic locally.
