I wrote a simple WebSocket client. I used the code I found on SO, here: How can I send and receive WebSocket messages on the server side?.
I'm using Python 2.7 and my server is echo.websocket.org on 80 TCP port. Basically, I think that I have a problem with receiving messages. (Or maybe the sending is wrong too?)
At least I am sure that the handshake is all ok, since I receive a good handshake response:

And my code:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import socket
def encode_text_msg_websocket(data):
bytesFormatted = []
bytesFormatted.append(129)
bytesRaw = data.encode()
bytesLength = len(bytesRaw)
if bytesLength <= 125:
bytesFormatted.append(bytesLength)
elif 126 <= bytesLength <= 65535:
bytesFormatted.append(126)
bytesFormatted.append((bytesLength >> 8) & 255)
bytesFormatted.append(bytesLength & 255)
else:
bytesFormatted.append(127)
bytesFormatted.append((bytesLength >> 56) & 255)
bytesFormatted.append((bytesLength >> 48) & 255)
bytesFormatted.append((bytesLength >> 40) & 255)
bytesFormatted.append((bytesLength >> 32) & 255)
bytesFormatted.append((bytesLength >> 24) & 255)
bytesFormatted.append((bytesLength >> 16) & 255)
bytesFormatted.append((bytesLength >> 8) & 255)
bytesFormatted.append(bytesLength & 255)
bytesFormatted = bytes(bytesFormatted)
bytesFormatted = bytesFormatted + bytesRaw
return bytesFormatted

while i < len(byteArray):

sock.send(handshake)
print sock.recv(1024)
# send test msg
msg = encode_text_msg_websocket('hello world!')

What is wrong here? It gets complicated after the handshake.
The dencode_text_msg_websocket method returns an empty string but it should return the same string I send to the server, which is hello world!.
I DO NOT WANT to use libraries (I know how to use them). The question is about achieving the same thing WITHOUT libraries, using only sockets.
I only want to send a message to echo.websocket.org server and receive a response, that's all. I do not want to modify the headers, just build the headers like they're used by this server. I checked how they should look like using Wireshark, and tried to build the same packets with Python.
For tests below, I used my browser:
Not masked data, from server to client:
Masked data, from client to server:
解决方案
You should mask the client frames. (And the server frames is not masked at all.)
a client MUST mask all frames that it
sends to the server (see Section 5.3 for further details). (Note
that masking is done whether or not the WebSocket Protocol is running
over TLS.) The server MUST close the connection upon receiving a
frame that is not masked. In this case, a server MAY send a Close
frame with a status code of 1002 (protocol error) as defined in
Section 7.4.1. A server MUST NOT mask any frames that it sends to
the client. A client MUST close a connection if it detects a masked
frame。
