Websocket (JSR 356) bundle for Dropwizard

Adding some Websocket-magic to Dropwizard.

This repository contains a Bundle to be used with Dropwizard. For more information about Dropwizard, please visit: dropwizard.io.

The goal of the bundle was to add support for the JSR 356 Websocket specification. For some reason, Dropwizard doesn't support this out of the box.

How does the bundle work?

The baseline for this version is Java 11, which is also the baseline for Dropwizard 4.

Add the maven dependency:

<dependency>
  <groupId>be.tomcools</groupId>
  <artifactId>dropwizard-websocket-jsr356-bundle</artifactId>
  <version>4.0.0</version>
</dependency>

This project used to contain an implementation for Dropwizard 2.x, based on Java 8. While we are deprecating that and no longer supporting it, it's still available.

<dependency>
  <groupId>be.tomcools</groupId>
  <artifactId>dropwizard-websocket-jee7-bundle</artifactId>
  <version>2.1.6</version>
</dependency>

Add the WebsocketBundle object to the Application.class and add the Endpoint classes you want to load:

public class IntegrationTestApplication extends Application<IntegrationTestConfiguration> {
    private WebsocketBundle websocket = new WebsocketBundle();

    @Override
    public void initialize(Bootstrap<IntegrationTestConfiguration> bootstrap) {
        super.initialize(bootstrap);
        bootstrap.addBundle(websocket);
    }

    @Override
    public void run(IntegrationTestConfiguration configuration, Environment environment) throws Exception {
        //Annotated endpoint
        websocket.addEndpoint(PingPongServerEndpoint.class);

        //programmatic endpoint
        ServerEndpointConfig serverEndpointConfig = ServerEndpointConfig.Builder.create(ProgrammaticServerEndpoint.class, "/programmatic").build();
        websocket.addEndpoint(serverEndpointConfig);
    }
}

Start your server. During startup, all registered Websocket-endpoints will be logged in the same way other resources are logged.

INFO  [2017-05-16 18:18:04,230] be.tomcools.dropwizard.websocket.handling.WebsocketContainer: Registered websocket endpoints: 

	GET		/programmatic (be.tomcools.dropwizard.websocket.integrationtest.programmaticjavaee.ProgrammaticServerEndpoint)
	GET		/pingpong (be.tomcools.dropwizard.websocket.integrationtest.annotatedjavaee.PingPongServerEndpoint)

Configuration

Websocket default configuration can be overriden using the WebsocketBundleConfiguration Interface on the Configuration class. When the interface is not used, the configuration will not be overridden.

public class IntegrationConfiguration extends Configuration implements WebsocketBundleConfiguration {

@Valid
@NotNull
@JsonProperty
private final WebsocketConfiguration websocketConfiguration = new WebsocketConfiguration();

@Override
public WebsocketConfiguration getWebsocketConfiguration() {
    return websocketConfiguration;
}

}

WebsocketConfiguration: public class WebsocketConfiguration {

@JsonProperty
private Integer maxTextMessageBufferSize;
@JsonProperty
private Long asyncSendTimeout;
@JsonProperty
private Long maxSessionIdleTimeout;
@JsonProperty
private Integer maxBinaryMessageBufferSize;

}
