Hi,
On the docs of websocket the last example doesn't work.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Create a file main.py with the last example on the bottom of the file
https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/tutorial/websockets/#create-a-websocket
from fastapi import Cookie, Depends, FastAPI, Header
from starlette.responses import HTMLResponse
from starlette.status import WS_1008_POLICY_VIOLATION
from starlette.websockets import WebSocket
app = FastAPI()
html = """
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Chat</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>WebSocket Chat</h1>
<form action="" onsubmit="sendMessage(event)">
<label>Item ID: <input type="text" id="itemId" autocomplete="off" value="foo"/></label>
<button onclick="connect(event)">Connect</button>
<br>
<label>Message: <input type="text" id="messageText" autocomplete="off"/></label>
<button>Send</button>
</form>
<ul id='messages'>
</ul>
<script>
var ws = null;
function connect(event) {
var input = document.getElementById("itemId")
ws = new WebSocket("ws://localhost:8000/items/" + input.value + "/ws");
ws.onmessage = function(event) {
var messages = document.getElementById('messages')
var message = document.createElement('li')
var content = document.createTextNode(event.data)
message.appendChild(content)
messages.appendChild(message)
};
}
function sendMessage(event) {
var input = document.getElementById("messageText")
ws.send(input.value)
input.value = ''
event.preventDefault()
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
"""
@app.get("/")
async def get():
return HTMLResponse(html)
async def get_cookie_or_client(
websocket: WebSocket, session: str = Cookie(None), x_client: str = Header(None)
):
if session is None and x_client is None:
await websocket.close(code=WS_1008_POLICY_VIOLATION)
return session or x_client
@app.websocket("/items/{item_id}/ws")
async def websocket_endpoint(
websocket: WebSocket,
item_id: int,
q: str = None,
cookie_or_client: str = Depends(get_cookie_or_client),
):
await websocket.accept()
while True:
data = await websocket.receive_text()
await websocket.send_text(
f"Session Cookie or X-Client Header value is: {cookie_or_client}"
)
if q is not None:
await websocket.send_text(f"Query parameter q is: {q}")
await websocket.send_text(f"Message text was: {data}, for item ID: {item_id}")
- Run the application with the cmd:
uvicorn main:app --log-level debug --reload
- Open the browser 127.0.0.01
- the first time i connect with ItemID foo , press the button connect
- send message hi with ItemID foo and press the button send.
it's look like the connect fail but the second ,but the send have return code 200
but nothing happen on the web side.

- See error

Expected behavior
expected to appear the send bold message on the web page.
Environment:
- OS: centos 7
- FastAPI Version [e.g. 0.3.0], get it with: fastapi==0.31.0
import fastapi
print(fastapi.__version__)
0.31.0
- Python version, get it with:
python --version
Python 3.7.3
