Description
Hello,
Instead of the Go standard `net/http`, I am using [FastHTTP](https://github.com/valyala/fasthttp) as my webserver, in order to upgrade to websockets using [FastHTTP websocket](https://github.com/fasthttp/websocket). It currently looks something like this, which is called by the GET handler of my FastHTTP server:
```
func websocketUpgradeHandler(ctx *fasthttp.RequestCtx) {
logger.Infof("Received WS request on %s", string(ctx.Path()))
// Upgrade the connection to a websocket.
err := websockets.Upgrader.Upgrade(ctx, func(conn *websocket.Conn) {
// Create a new WS connection object and give it the new WS connection.
wsConnection := &websockets.WSConnection{Conn: conn}
// Start the inbound WS worker goroutine.
wsConnection.WSInboundWorker()
})
if err != nil {
logger.Errorf("Failed to upgrade WS connection: %s", err)
}
}
```
According to [#229 (https://github.com/coder/websocket/issues/229), this should be doable with using FastHttp's `fasthttp#RequestCtx.Hijack`. From what I can tell, this will return the request context's underlying `net.Conn` object.
I am not sure how to make use of this within this websocket library. One total guess is somehow using `websocket.Accept`, but I don't know how to provide the required `ResponseWriter` and `Request`.
Some guidance on this would be much appreciated!
