How does someone implement an OpenID Relying party with Socko webserver?

Question

I am using socko webserver which is great for websockets and the like. I would like to let people authenticate against it using OpenID. I cannot see any examples of using a library such as openid4java with Socko. How does one do this?

Answer 1

Since no-one had any hints I wrote my own demo app socko-openid on github. It uses the openid4java library as documented on a wicket based demo by J Steven Perry. A write up of the code including how sessions and cookies are handled is written up as openid-authentication-with-socko-webserver.
