Re: [keycloak-user] WebSockets

There is also another example https://github.com/secondsun/wildfly-secured-websocket , where client is javascript application . It's based on web.xml security and the client and server are both in same web application. Unfortunately I don't know if it can work if client and server are in different applications, as it seems that there is no way for add additional HTTP headers on client in javascript websockets API (at least according to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4361173/http-headers-in-websockets-cli... ). So adding "Authorization: Bearer" looks like a challenge here.
