SockJS-Channels

SockJS-Channels is a server-side implementation of the SockJS protocol for the Django Channels and was inspired by the SockJS-aiohttp project. SockJS-Channels interface is implemented as a ASGI routing, it runs inside a ASGI application rather than ASGI server. Its possible to create any number of different sockjs routings, ie /sockjs/* or /chat-sockjs/*. You can provide different session implementation and management for each sockjs routing.

Requirements

  • Python 3.6+
  • Django 3.2+
  • Channels 3.0.0+

Installation

$ pip install sockjs-channels

ASGI Routing

Here’s an example of asgi.py might looks like:

import os

from channels.routing import ProtocolTypeRouter, URLRouter
from django.core.asgi import get_asgi_application
from django.urls import re_path

from sockjs import make_routing

os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'chat.settings')

# Initialize Django ASGI application early to ensure the AppRegistry
# is populated before importing code that may import ORM models.
django_asgi_app = get_asgi_application()

from chat.views import chat_msg_handler

routing = make_routing(chat_msg_handler, name='chat')

# Add django's url routing
routing.http.append(re_path(r'', django_asgi_app))

application = ProtocolTypeRouter({
    'http': URLRouter([
        *routing.http
    ]),
    'websocket': URLRouter([
        *routing.websocket
    ])
})

Supported Transports
