How to handle websocket disconnect from client

[MichalPham]

When disconectiong from client side (httpx-ws, js) using their respective close methods, the startlette.websocket.receive_(text|bytes) fails with RuntimeError and not with WebSocketDisconnect. Its caused by this line because the message type is websocket.close and not websocket.disconnect. I have not found a way how to send websocket.disconnect looking at the implementation of starlette close method it also sends websocket.close.

So the question really is how do i correctly disconect from client side.

Hi,
I guess, I am facing the same issue. Are there any updates on this?

We seem to be affected by the same issue. There seems to be a little of a disconnect between message types used for connection termination, or am I confused?

I'm also receiving:

RuntimeError: Expected ASGI message "websocket.receive" or "websocket.disconnect", but got 'websocket.close'

Is there a version we can rollback to?

Actually this may be a problem with httpx-ws who is not following the ASGI spec.
