There are some special routes defined for websockets,

  • `$connect`: When user connect to API Gateway thought websocket
  • `$disconnet`:
  • `$defualt`: default one, when there is no matching route

 

API Gateway WebSocket URL

WebSocket API provides two URLs: WebSocket URL and Connection URL.

WebSocket URL:

  • Clinent use to connect to API
  • Allows clients to send message and receive notifications

Connection URL:

  • Send back message to client
  • Lambda function use it to send message
  • Requires a connection id to send a message to particular client

Connection id will be stored in DynamoDB table, a lambda function will read from it.

 

Connection URL supports the following operations:

  • POST: to send a message to a client
  • GET: to get the latest connection status
  • DELETE: to disconnect a client from API

Here is an example of how to react to WebSocket events using Serverless Framework:

ConnectHandler:
    handler: src/websocket/connect.handler
    events:
      - websocket:
          route: $connect

  DisconnectHandler:
    handler: src/websocket/disconnect.handler
    events:
      - websocket:
          route: $disconnect
