🤗 [Question]: is it possible to get the file descriptor from fiber websocket?

[saifhamdan]

Question Description

I have been using gofiber/websocket for a while now, and I've been reading about how you can increase WebSocket performance by creating an epoll to handle file descriptors. I've tried every possible way to obtain it from *websocket.Conn, but I couldn't find any solution. Has anyone tried this before?

Code Snippet (optional)

@saifhamdan When using *websocket.Conn, directly accessing the file descriptor is not straightforward because the WebSocket connection abstracts over the underlying TCP connection. Even when using the standard library intentionally doesn't provide a direct way to access the file descriptor from a net.Conn interface.

You could try asking the fasthttp/websocket folks to provide an example or function for doing this.
