Parse Handshake

Handshake is first thing before client and server establish connection. Handshake negotiate thress things:

• protocol version - right now only version 1
• data codec type - right now only support protobuf, value is 1
• client platform - value is 9 as OpenAPI

So handshake is always fixed contents.

How TCP do handshaking

Client need send two bytes handshake to server.

Data structure

 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|  ver  | codec |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|platfo.|reserve|
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

Fields Explain:

field	length in bit	description
ver	4	protocol version: only value 1
codec	4	data codec: only value 1 for protobuf
platform	4	client platform: 0b1001 - OpenAPI
reserve	4	reserved

Example

• ver - 0b0001
• codec - 0b0001
• platform - 0b1001
• reserve - 0b0000

Two bytes contents:

0b00010001,
0b00001001

How WebSocket do handshaking
