🔧 Technical Specifications

Request Builder API (5 methods)

Request.Create()
    .WithWebSocket()                          // Match WebSocket upgrade
    .WithWebSocketPath(path)                  // Convenience: path + upgrade
    .WithWebSocketSubprotocol(subprotocol)    // Match subprotocol
    .WithWebSocketVersion(version)            // Match version (default "13")
    .WithWebSocketOrigin(origin)              // Match origin (CORS)

Response Builder API (4 methods + properties)

Response.Create()
    .WithWebSocket(ws => ws                   // Builder action pattern
        .WithMessage(text, delayMs)           // Add text message
        .WithJsonMessage(obj, delayMs)        // Add JSON message
        .WithBinaryMessage(bytes, delayMs)    // Add binary message
        .WithTransformer(type)                // Enable templating
        .WithClose(code, message)             // Set close frame

        .WithAutoClose(delayMs)               // Auto-close after delay
    )
    .WithWebSocket(preBuiltResponse)          // Direct response assignment
    .WithWebSocketSubprotocol(subprotocol)    // Quick subprotocol set
    .WithWebSocketCallback(asyncCallback)     // Dynamic callback

response.WebSocketResponse                    // Access response object

🎨 Design Patterns

1. Fluent Builder Pattern

Response.Create()
    .WithWebSocket(ws => ws
        .WithMessage("A")
        .WithJsonMessage(obj)
        .WithTransformer()
        .Build()
    )

2. Convenience Methods

// Explicit (flexible)
Request.Create().WithPath("/ws").WithWebSocket()

// Convenience (quick)
Request.Create().WithWebSocketPath("/ws")

3. Callback Support

Response.Create()
    .WithWebSocketCallback(async req =>
        new[] { new WebSocketMessage { /* ... */ } }
    )

4. Partial Class Extensions

• Request builder in separate file
• Response builder in separate file
• Clean separation of concerns

🚀 Usage Examples

Simple Echo

server.Given(Request.Create().WithWebSocketPath("/echo"))
    .RespondWith(Response.Create()
        .WithWebSocket(ws => ws.WithMessage("Echo ready"))
    );

Chat with Subprotocol

server.Given(Request.Create()
    .WithWebSocketPath("/chat")
    .WithWebSocketSubprotocol("chat-v1"))
    .RespondWith(Response.Create()
        .WithWebSocketSubprotocol("chat-v1")
        .WithWebSocket(ws => ws
            .WithJsonMessage(new { status = "ready" })
        )
    );

Dynamic with Callback

server.Given(Request.Create().WithWebSocketPath("/data"))
    .RespondWith(Response.Create()
        .WithWebSocketCallback(async request =>
            new[] { new WebSocketMessage { 
                BodyAsString = "Echo: " + request.Body 
            }}
        )
    );

Streaming with Delays

server.Given(Request.Create().WithWebSocketPath("/stream"))
    .RespondWith(Response.Create()
        .WithWebSocket(ws => ws
            .WithMessage("Start", 0)
            .WithMessage("Processing", 1000)
            .WithMessage("Done", 2000)
            .WithClose(1000)
        )
    );

🎯 Next Phase: Server Integration

To complete the WebSocket implementation, the following components need to be added:

Files to Create/Modify

1. WireMockMiddleware.cs - Add WebSocket upgrade handler
2. MappingMatcher.cs - Add WebSocket routing
3. WireMockServer.cs - Add WebSocket connection management
4. WebSocketConnectionManager.cs - New file for connection lifecycle
5. Admin API endpoints - Expose WebSocket mappings

Implementation Priority

1. Medium - WebSocket upgrade detection in middleware
2. Medium - Connection routing and matching
3. High - Message delivery and queuing
4. Low - Admin API and logging
5. Low - Performance optimization
