I am trying to align my Dart server’s websocket functionality with PhantomJS version 1.9.7, which seems to utilize an outdated websocket standard instead of RFC6455. The Dart documentation for WebSocketTransformer indicates that it aims to comply with RFC6455 for upgrading HttpRequests. However, when executing my Dart websocket code, which is designed to handle these upgrades, I encounter a failure when PhantomJS sends over its request headers. The Dart implementation responds with an invalid upgrade request error. Given that the upgrade method in the WebSocketTransformer takes one mandatory parameter, the HttpRequest, and allows for an optional protocol selector, is there a method to modify my Dart backend so that it can successfully process PhantomJS websocket requests until an update is made to PhantomJS?
hey, maybe you could try proxyin the request through a small custom node server that modifies the headers to be compatible with RFC6455. This way, the node server could act as a bridge between PhantomJS and Dart’s compliant WebSocket server. Just a thought tho!
