+# Gorilla WebSocket
+
+Gorilla WebSocket is a [Go](http://golang.org/) implementation of the
+[WebSocket](http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6455.txt) protocol.

+### Documentation
+
+* [API Reference](http://godoc.org/github.com/gorilla/websocket)
+* [Chat example](https://github.com/gorilla/websocket/tree/master/examples/chat)
+* [Command example](https://github.com/gorilla/websocket/tree/master/examples/command)
+* [Client and server example](https://github.com/gorilla/websocket/tree/master/examples/echo)
+* [File watch example](https://github.com/gorilla/websocket/tree/master/examples/filewatch)
+
+### Status
+
+The Gorilla WebSocket package provides a complete and tested implementation of
+the [WebSocket](http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6455.txt) protocol. The
+package API is stable.
+
+### Installation
+
+ go get github.com/gorilla/websocket
+
+### Protocol Compliance
+
+The Gorilla WebSocket package passes the server tests in the [Autobahn Test
+Suite](http://autobahn.ws/testsuite) using the application in the [examples/autobahn
+subdirectory](https://github.com/gorilla/websocket/tree/master/examples/autobahn).

+Notes:
+
+1. Large messages are fragmented in [Chrome's new WebSocket implementation](http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/hybi/current/msg10503.html).
+2. The application can get the type of a received data message by implementing
+ a [Codec marshal](http://godoc.org/golang.org/x/net/websocket#Codec.Marshal)
+ function.
+3. The go.net io.Reader and io.Writer operate across WebSocket frame boundaries.
+ Read returns when the input buffer is full or a frame boundary is
+ encountered. Each call to Write sends a single frame message. The Gorilla
+ io.Reader and io.WriteCloser operate on a single WebSocket message.
