I have been trying all day and night for couple of days trying to make websocket to work using proxy in Java. I tried different library like
https://github.com/TooTallNate/Java-WebSocket
https://github.com/AsyncHttpClient/async-http-client
But sadly these library doesn't support proxy with credentials. If you guys have known any other library that supports proxy then I would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Try nv-websocket-client library. It supports authentication at a proxy server. Note that, however, the current implementation supports Basic Authentication only.
// 1. Create a WebSocketFactory instance.
WebSocketFactory factory = new WebSocketFactory();
// 2. Set up information about a proxy server.
// Credentials can be set here.
ProxySettings settings = factory.getProxySettings();
settings.setServer("http://proxy.example.com");
settings.setCredentials("id", "password");
// 3. Connect to a WebSocket endpoint via the proxy.
WebSocket ws = factory.createSocket("ws://websocket.example.com");
// 4. Add a listener to receive WebSocket events.
ws.addListener(new WebSocketAdapter() {
@Override
public void onTextMessage(WebSocket ws, String message) {
// Received a text message.
......
}
});
// 5. Perform a WebSocket opening handshake.
ws.connect();
// 6. Send frames.
// 6-1. Text
ws.sendText("Hello.");
// 6-2. Binary
byte[] binary = ......;
ws.sendBinary(binary);
// 6-3. Ping
ws.sendPing("Are you there?");
// 6-4. Pong (unsolicited pong; RFC 6455, 5.5.3. Pong)
ws.sendPong("I'm OK.");
// 6-5. Fragmented Frames
ws.sendText("How ", false)
.sendContinuation("are ")
.sendContinuation("you?", true);
// 6-6. Periodical Ping
ws.setPingInterval(60 * 1000);
// 6-7. Periodical Pong (unsolicited pong; RFC 6455, 5.5.3. Pong)
ws.setPongInterval(60 * 1000);
// 6-8. Close (if you want to send one manually).
ws.sendClose(WebSocketCloseCode.NORMAL, "Bye.");
// 7. Disconnect
ws.disconnect();

The size of nv-websocket-client-1.3.jar
is 62,854 bytes and it does not require any external dependencies.
You can try Tyrus (reference implementation of WebSocket API in Java EE); client side does not require any Java EE server to be running and if you are using Java 7, the client could be minimized to ~500kb.
Client behing proxy and Dependencies should provide enough info to try.
