Re: Websockets with shared resource and multiple browser tabs

Hi all,

I created a ticket (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-6761) and
a PR (https://github.com/apache/wicket/pull/417) for this.

Best,

Thomas

Websockets with shared resource and multiple browser tabs

2020-03-20 Thread Thomas Heigl
Hi all,

I'm currently implementing native websockets for my application. I'm using
`WebSocketResource` because I don't need access to the page and do not want
my page to lock on websocket messages.

Everything works, but I encountered one issue: It is not possible to
support websocket connections for multiple tabs in the same browser because
the key used for looking up the websocket connection is the name of the
shared resource. Since this is the same for all open browser tabs, existing
connections get overwritten when the user opens a new tab.

I experimented with appending a unique token to the resource name as a
query parameter, but then the websocket broadcaster cannot find the shared
resource.

It is possible to somehow add a shared resource that supports query
parameters? Or is there some other way to use a separate websocket
connection per browser tab?

Thanks,

Thomas
