Chapter 368. Jetty Websocket Component


Available as of Camel version 2.10

The websocket component provides websocket endpoints for communicating with clients using websocket. The component uses Eclipse Jetty Server which implements the IETF specification (drafts and RFC 6455). It supports the protocols ws:// and wss://. To use wss:// protocol, the SSLContextParameters must be defined.

Version currently supported

Camel 2.18 uses Jetty 9

368.1. URI format

websocket://hostname[:port][/resourceUri][?options]

You can append query options to the URI in the following format, ?option=value&option=value&…​

368.2. Websocket Options

The Jetty Websocket component supports 14 options, which are listed below.

The resources can be loaded from classpath, if you prefix with classpath:, otherwise the resources is loaded from file system or from JAR files. For example to load from root classpath use classpath:., or classpath:WEB-INF/static If not configured (eg null) then no static resource is in use.

bridgeErrorHandler (consumer)

Allows for bridging the consumer to the Camel routing Error Handler, which mean any exceptions occurred while the consumer is trying to pickup incoming messages, or the likes, will now be processed as a message and handled by the routing Error Handler.

Boolean

368.4. Message Headers

The websocket component uses 2 headers to indicate to either send messages back to a single/current client, or to all clients.

WebsocketConstants.SEND_TO_ALLSends the message to all clients which are currently connected. You can use the sendToAll option on the endpoint instead of using this header.

WebsocketConstants.CONNECTION_KEY

Sends the message to the client with the given connection key.

WebsocketConstants.REMOTE_ADDRESS

Remote address of the websocket session.

368.5. Usage

In this example we let Camel exposes a websocket server which clients can communicate with. The websocket server uses the default host and port, which would be 0.0.0.0:9292.
The example will send back an echo of the input. To send back a message, we need to send the transformed message to the same endpoint "websocket://echo". This is needed
because by default the messaging is InOnly.

This example is part of an unit test, which you can find here. As a client we use the AHC library which offers support for web socket as well.

Here is another example where webapp resources location have been defined to allow the Jetty Application Server to not only register the WebSocket servlet but also to expose web resources for the browser. Resources should be defined under the webapp directory.

from("activemq:topic:newsTopic")
   .routeId("fromJMStoWebSocket")
   .to("websocket://localhost:8443/newsTopic?sendToAll=true&staticResources=classpath:webapp");

368.6. Setting up SSL for WebSocket Component

368.6.1. Using the JSSE Configuration Utility

As of Camel 2.10, the WebSocket component supports SSL/TLS configuration through the Camel JSSE Configuration Utility. This utility greatly decreases the amount of component specific code you need to write and is configurable at the endpoint and component levels. The following examples demonstrate how to use the utility with the Cometd component.

Programmatic configuration of the component

KeyStoreParameters ksp = new KeyStoreParameters();
ksp.setResource("/users/home/server/keystore.jks");
ksp.setPassword("keystorePassword");

KeyManagersParameters kmp = new KeyManagersParameters();
kmp.setKeyStore(ksp);
kmp.setKeyPassword("keyPassword");

TrustManagersParameters tmp = new TrustManagersParameters();
tmp.setKeyStore(ksp);

SSLContextParameters scp = new SSLContextParameters();
scp.setKeyManagers(kmp);
scp.setTrustManagers(tmp);

CometdComponent commetdComponent = getContext().getComponent("cometds", CometdComponent.class);
commetdComponent.setSslContextParameters(scp);

Spring DSL based configuration of endpoint

...
  <camel:sslContextParameters
      id="sslContextParameters">
    <camel:keyManagers
        keyPassword="keyPassword">
      <camel:keyStore
          resource="/users/home/server/keystore.jks"
          password="keystorePassword"/>
    </camel:keyManagers>
    <camel:trustManagers>
      <camel:keyStore
          resource="/users/home/server/keystore.jks"
          password="keystorePassword"/>
    </camel:trustManagers>
  </camel:sslContextParameters>...
...
  <to uri="websocket://127.0.0.1:8443/test?sslContextParameters=#sslContextParameters"/>...

Java DSL based configuration of endpoint

...
    protected RouteBuilder createRouteBuilder() throws Exception {
        return new RouteBuilder() {
            public void configure() {

                String uri = "websocket://127.0.0.1:8443/test?sslContextParameters=#sslContextParameters";

                from(uri)
                     .log(">>> Message received from WebSocket Client : ${body}")
                     .to("mock:client")
                     .loop(10)
                         .setBody().constant(">> Welcome on board!")
                         .to(uri);
