I am not able to figure out a way to attach a WebSocketHandlerAdapter to a reactor netty server.
Requirements: I want to start a reactor netty server and attach http (REST) endpoints and websocket endpoints to the same server. I have gone through the documentation and some sample demo application mentioned in the documentation. They show how to attach a HttpHandlerAdapter to the the HttpServer using newHandler() function. But when it comes to websockets they switch back to using spring boot and annotation examples. I am not able to find how to attach websockets using functional endpoints.
Please point me in the right direction on how to implement this. 1. how do I attach the websocket adapter to the netty server? 2. Should I use HttpServer or TcpServer?
Note: 1. I am not using spring boot. 2. I am not using annotations. 3. Trying to achieve this only using functional webflux end points.
Sample code:
public HandlerMapping webSocketMapping()
{
Map<String, WebSocketHandler> map = new HashMap<>();
map.put("/echo", new EchoTestingWebSocketHandler());
SimpleUrlHandlerMapping mapping = new SimpleUrlHandlerMapping();
mapping.setUrlMap(map);
mapping.setOrder(-1);
return mapping;
}
public WebSocketHandlerAdapter wsAdapter()
{
HandshakeWebSocketService wsService = new HandshakeWebSocketService(new ReactorNettyRequestUpgradeStrategy());
return new WebSocketHandlerAdapter(wsService);
}
protected void startServer(String host, int port)
{
HttpServer server = HttpServer.create(host, port);
server.newHandler(wsAdapter()).block(); //how do I attach the websocket adapter to the netty server
}
