I have a websocket client. In reality, it is far more complex than the basic code shown below. I now need to scale this client code to open connections to multiple servers. Ultimately, the tasks that need to be performed when a message is received from the servers is identical. What would be the best approach to handle this? As I said above the actual code performed when receiving the message is far more complex than shown in the example.
package main
import (
"flag"
"log"
"net/url"
"os"
"os/signal"
"time"
"github.com/gorilla/websocket"
)
var addr = flag.String("addr", "localhost:1234", "http service address")
func main() {
flag.Parse()
log.SetFlags(0)
interrupt := make(chan os.Signal, 1)
signal.Notify(interrupt, os.Interrupt)
// u := url.URL{Scheme: "ws", Host: *addr, Path: "/echo"}
u := url.URL{Scheme: "ws", Host: *addr, Path: "/"}
log.Printf("connecting to %s", u.String())
c, _, err := websocket.DefaultDialer.Dial(u.String(), nil)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal("dial:", err)
}
defer c.Close()
done := make(chan struct{})
go func() {
defer close(done)
for {
_, message, err := c.ReadMessage()
if err != nil {
log.Println("read:", err)
return
}
log.Printf("recv: %s", message)
}
}()
ticker := time.NewTicker(time.Second)
defer ticker.Stop()
for {
select {
case <-done:
return
case t := <-ticker.C:
err := c.WriteMessage(websocket.TextMessage, []byte(t.String()))
if err != nil {
log.Println("write:", err)
return
}
case <-interrupt:
log.Println("interrupt")
// Cleanly close the connection by sending a close message and then
// waiting (with timeout) for the server to close the connection.
err := c.WriteMessage(websocket.CloseMessage, websocket.FormatCloseMessage(websocket.CloseNormalClosure, ""))
if err != nil {
log.Println("write close:", err)
return
}
select {
case <-done:
case <-time.After(time.Second):
}
return
}
}
}
