I am making a chat program.
I am using an Nginx server and NodeJS.
I have setup a websocket via ssl and that works fine.
I have decided to use cookies for authentication.
There are two functions which are crucial:
mconnection.prototype.make_server_https=function(){
console.log('Make server https');
var cthis=this;
var server_https=modules.https.createServer({
key: this.ssl_key,
cert:this.ssl_cert,
ca:this.ssl_ca
},(request,response)=>{
console.log('### CreateServer ###');
console.log('CreateServer, Request:');
console.log(request);
console.log('CreateServer, Response:');
console.log(response);
console.log('######');
and
mconnection.prototype.make_server_websocket=function(){
var server_websocket=new modules.ws.Server({server:this.server_https});
var cookie = require("cookie");
var cthis=this;
//whenever a new client connects with the server.
server_websocket.on('connection', function(client_socket, request){
console.log('### On Connection ###');
console.log('OnConnection, Client Socket:');
console.log(client_socket);
console.log('OnConnection, Request:');
console.log(request);
console.log('######');
If I do state the port number in the client url,
function make_server_https gets run and inside there i can access the cookie and set it via the response object.
but in the original url,
function make_server_websocket gets run, and there i have access to the client_socket on the server. But there it seems i dont have access to the cookies.
I need to client_websocket to start the connection with this given client. And I need to tie it somehow with the cookies login information.
But i never have both at the same time so i dont get how i could connect them to make the login happen.
I am probably misunderstanding something, any help in the right direction would really be appreciated.
