ESP Async WebServer

Asynchronous HTTP and WebSocket Server Library for ESP32. Supports: WebSocket, SSE, Authentication, Arduino Json 7, File Upload, Static File serving, URL Rewrite, URL Redirect, etc.

This fork is based on yubox-node-org/ESPAsyncWebServer and includes all the concurrency fixes.

Changes in this fork

• Removed SPIFFSEditor
• Deployed in PlatformIO registry and Arduino IDE library manager
• CI
• Some code cleanup
• SSE_MAX_QUEUED_MESSAGES to control the maximum number of messages that can be queued for a SSE client
• write() function public in AsyncEventSource.h
• Arduino Json 7 compatibility and backward compatible with 6 and 6 (changes in AsyncJson.h). The API to use Json has not changed. These are only internal changes.
• WS_MAX_QUEUED_MESSAGES: control the maximum number of messages that can be queued for a Websocket client
• Resurrected AsyncWebSocketMessageBuffer and makeBuffer() in order to make the fork API-compatible with the original library from me-no-dev regarding WebSocket.
• #5 (@vortigont): set real "Last-Modified" header based on file's LastWrite time
• #13 (@tueddy): Compile with Arduino 3 (ESP-IDF 5.1)
• #14 (@nilo85): Add support for Auth & GET requests in AsyncCallbackJsonWebHandler
• Depends on mathieucarbou/Async TCP @ ^3.1.2
• Arduino 3 / ESP-IDF 5.1 compatibility

Documentation

Usage and API stays the same as the original library. Please look at the original libraries for more examples and documentation.

AsyncWebSocketMessageBuffer and makeBuffer()

The fork from yubox-node-org introduces some breaking API changes compared to the original library, especially regarding the use of std::shared_ptr<std::vector<uint8_t>> for WebSocket.

This fork is compatible with the original library from me-no-dev regarding WebSocket, and wraps the optimizations done by yubox-node-org in the AsyncWebSocketMessageBuffer class. So you have the choice of which API to use. I strongly suggest to use the optimized API from yubox-node-org as it is much more efficient.

Here is an example for serializing a Json document in a websocket message buffer. This code is compatible with any forks, but not optimized:

void send(JsonDocument& doc) {
  const size_t len = measureJson(doc);

  // original API from me-no-dev
  AsyncWebSocketMessageBuffer* buffer = _ws->makeBuffer(len);
  assert(buffer); // up to you to keep or remove this
  serializeJson(doc, buffer->get(), len);
  _ws->textAll(buffer);
}

Here is an example for serializing a Json document in a more optimized way, and compatible with both forks:

void send(JsonDocument& doc) {
  const size_t len = measureJson(doc);

#if defined(ASYNCWEBSERVER_FORK_mathieucarbou)

  // this fork (originally from yubox-node-org), uses another API with shared pointer that better support concurrent use cases then the original project
  auto buffer = std::make_shared<std::vector<uint8_t>>(len);
  assert(buffer); // up to you to keep or remove this
  serializeJson(doc, buffer->data(), len);
  _ws->textAll(std::move(buffer));

#else

  // original API from me-no-dev
  AsyncWebSocketMessageBuffer* buffer = _ws->makeBuffer(len);
  assert(buffer); // up to you to keep or remove this
  serializeJson(doc, buffer->get(), len);
  _ws->textAll(buffer);

#endif
