# WireMock.Net WebSocket Examples
This project demonstrates all the WebSocket capabilities of WireMock.Net.
## Prerequisites
- .NET 8.0 SDK
- Optional: `wscat` for manual testing (`npm install -g wscat`)
## Running the Examples
```bash
cd examples/WireMock.Net.WebSocketExamples
dotnet run
```
## Available Examples
### 1. Echo Server
Simple WebSocket echo server that returns all messages back to the client.
**Test with:**
```bash
wscat -c ws://localhost:9091/ws/echo
```
### 2. Custom Message Handler
Chat server with commands: `/help`, `/time`, `/echo`, `/upper`, `/reverse`, `/quit`
**Test with:**
```bash
wscat -c ws://localhost:9091/ws/chat
> /help
> /time
> /echo Hello World
> /upper test
> /reverse hello
```
### 3. Broadcast Server
Messages sent by any client are broadcast to all connected clients.
**Test with multiple terminals:**
```bash
# Terminal 1
wscat -c ws://localhost:9091/ws/broadcast
# Terminal 2
wscat -c ws://localhost:9091/ws/broadcast
# Terminal 3
wscat -c ws://localhost:9091/ws/broadcast
```
Type messages in any terminal and see them appear in all terminals.
### 4. Scenario/State Machine
Game server with state transitions: Lobby -> Playing -> GameOver
**Test with:**
```bash
wscat -c ws://localhost:9091/ws/game
> ready
> attack
> defend
> quit
```
### 5. WebSocket Proxy
Proxies WebSocket connections to echo.websocket.org
**Test with:**
```bash
wscat -c ws://localhost:9091/ws/proxy
```
### 6. Multiple Endpoints
Runs multiple WebSocket endpoints simultaneously:
- `/ws/echo` - Echo server
- `/ws/time` - Returns server time
- `/ws/json` - Returns JSON responses
- `/ws/protocol` - Protocol-specific endpoint
### 7. All Examples
Runs all endpoints at once with connection statistics.
## Features Demonstrated
-**Echo Server** - Simple message echo
-**Custom Handlers** - Complex message processing
-**Broadcast** - Multi-client communication
-**Scenarios** - State machine patterns
-**Proxy** - Forwarding to real WebSocket servers
-**Protocol Negotiation** - Sec-WebSocket-Protocol support
-**JSON Messaging** - Structured data exchange
-**Connection Management** - Track and manage connections
-**Configuration** - Custom WebSocket settings
## Testing with wscat
Install wscat globally:
```bash
npm install -g wscat
```
Basic usage:
```bash
# Connect to endpoint
wscat -c ws://localhost:9091/ws/echo
# Connect with protocol
wscat -c ws://localhost:9091/ws/protocol -s chat
# Connect with headers
wscat -c ws://localhost:9091/ws/echo -H "X-Custom-Header: value"
```
## Testing with C# Client
The examples include built-in C# WebSocket clients for automated testing.
Select options 1 or 2 and press any key to run the automated tests.
## Configuration
WebSocket settings can be configured:
```csharp
var server = WireMockServer.Start(new WireMockServerSettings
{
Port = 9091,
WebSocketSettings = new WebSocketSettings
{
MaxConnections = 100,
ReceiveBufferSize = 8192,
MaxMessageSize = 1048576,
KeepAliveInterval = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30),
CloseTimeout = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(10),
EnableCompression = true
}
});
```
## Monitoring
When running "All Examples" (option 7), press any key to view:
- Active connection count
- Connection IDs
- Request paths
- WebSocket states
## Notes
- All examples run on port 9091 by default
- Press CTRL+C to stop the server
- Multiple clients can connect simultaneously
- Connection states are tracked and can be queried
