Rust Full Websocket Example

This is a boilerplate Rust Websocket Server with:

• socket.io-like message format:

  {
    "event": "SOME_EVENT_NAME",
    "data"?: <ARBITRARY_DATA>
  }

• JSON serialization / deserialization to / from structs with serde and serde_json
  • See msg_in.rs for a list of all incoming events
• async / await event handlers with tokio-tungstenite
• argument parsing with clap
• logging with log and env_logger

To run:

cargo run

To test:

• Open a new tab in Chrome
• Copy-paste the code from test-server.js

To modify:

• Add your own incoming and outgoing messages to msg_in.rs and msg_out.rs respectively
• Add your own message handlers to src/handler
• Register message handlers in main.rs::handle_event
• Add args in args.rs

Misc:

• This was based off of autobahn-server.
• This code can be slightly modified to become a CLIENT instead of a SERVER. See autobahn-client.
