码头 Websocket 认证

Question

I play the Jetty Websocket use example here:

https://github.com/jetty-project/embedded-jetty-websocket-examples (i use native-jetty-websocket-example)

I just move from websocketpp (C++) to Java Jetty Websocket and i just wonder is there any way for me to authen the connection before the connection move to the onWebSocketConnect event ?

Back in websocketpp i'll authenticate the connection via url (eg: ws://xxx/?key=123) when i will accept the connection or not. I can drop the connection before it "upgrade", and the client will result in connect failed

In Java i don't known how to do that, when the event come to onWebSocketConnect then the connection is etablished

You can set up Security Constraints for that path and configure the Jetty authentication mechanisms, see details of how to do that here https://www.eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/jetty-9/index.html#configuring-security .

You could also use the JettyWebSocketCreator to do some checks on the HTTP Request just before the connection upgrades to WebSocket. Instead of this line https://github.com/jetty-project/embedded-jetty-websocket-examples/blob/564c40b56413905cadeb500ade40d53e578ea990/native-jetty-websocket-example/src/main/java/org/eclipse/jetty/demo/EventServer.java#L55

You can do something like:

wsContainer.addMapping("/events/*", (req, resp) ->
{
    if (!Objects.equals(req.getParameterMap().get("key"), "123"))
    {
        resp.sendError(...);
        return null;
    }

    return new EventSocket();
});
