* Progress towards deleting Sockets.Abstractions
- Moved our custom DefaultConnectionContext to Sockets.Http and renamed it to HttpConnectionContext.
- Renamed ConnectionManager to HttpConnectionManager
- Use DefaultConnection in tests and benchmarks
- Delete ConnectionMetadata
- React to rename of EndPoint to ConnectionHandler
- Rename UseSockets to UseConnections
- Rename MapEndPoint to MapConnectionHandler
- Rename HttpSocketOptions to HttpConnectionOptions
* Add support for timing out poll requests
- Default poll request is 110 seconds (like in previous versions of SignalR)
- Use 200 with a 0 content length for timeouts.
- Added support for not timing out while debugging
* Merge transport and hub protocols
- This change merges the transport and hub protocols into a single protocol. The
idea being that sockets in a purely streaming layer that sends frames from the underlying
transport. This makes things like TCP possible and doesn't impose a framing layer at the lowest
level. This will make it possible to build servers like kestrel on top of the TCP layer.
- The Message was removed from the lowest layer of the stack and pushed into the hubs layer. Hub invocations
are framed with what was before the transport protocol. Connections also need to state upfront if they support
binary or not. This will determine how data will be serialized to the specific connection.
- Changed the SSE parser and writer to be strictly SSE without any of the transport protocol specific
information.
- To ensure we aren't using types in the wrong layers
- Moved protocol logic into SignalR
- Socket.Abstractions is now the root of the universe, Sockets.Common will likely be removed
or turned into Sockets.Common.Http.
- Move SSE parser to Sockets.Client and SSE writer into Sockets.Http
- Moved tests into the appropriate test projects
- Updated the spec
- The connection state object is manipulated by multiple parties in a non thread safe way. This change introduces a semaphore that should be used by anyone updating or reading the connection state.
- Handle cases where there's an active request for a connection id and another incoming request for the same connection id, sse and websockets 409 and long polling kicks out the previous connection (https://github.com/aspnet/SignalR/issues/27 and https://github.com/aspnet/SignalR/issues/4)
- Handle requests being processed for disposed connections. There was a race where the background thread could remove and clean up the connection while it was about to be processed.
- Synchronize between the background scanning thread and the request threads when updating the connection state.
- Added `DisposeAndRemoveAsync` to the connection manager that handles`DisposeAsync` throwing and properly removes connections from connection tracking.
- Added Start to ConnectionManager so that testing is easier (background timer doesn't kick in unless start is called).
- Added RequestId to connection state for easier debugging and correlation (can easily see which request is currently processing the logical connection).
- Added tests
- Remove Streaming* classes from Sockets. The main
API will be channels based and streaming transports
will use the PipelineChannel (formerly FramingChannel) to
access messages.
- Added WriteAsync and ReadAsync to Connection and hid
the IChannelConnection from public API.
- Also fixed the fact that unknown methods caused server side
exceptions.
- Changed the consumption pattern to WaitToReadAsync/TryRead to avoid
exceptions.
- React to API changes
* Need a separate set of primitives to handle messaging
* Using Channels (not Pipelines!) to provide the data flow for messaging
* All transports are now "message" based transports
* Added an adaptor to convert message-based transports to serve
streaming endpoints
