Bug ID: 69524
Summary: Please add websocket support
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.4.62
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: mod_cgi
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
Could you please add support for websockets to mod_cgi.
I use CGI extensively to do all sorts of authentication, and then
reverse-proxy to backend servers (the CGI doing the connect and fetch
from the back end, no mod_proxy). One of the services is JupyterHub,
that uses websockets: cannot do with CGI. My current workaound is to
special-case the websocket URLs in the Apache configs, and handle them
separately with mod_proxy_http and upgrade=websocket (luckily by then
the authentication is done).
I see that lighttpd does support websockets for CGI. Maybe a better
workaround would be to run a lighttpd service, and let it handle all
reverse-proxying to JupyterHub, since its CGI can handle websockets.
Thanks, Paul
