Talking to the spdy server with java client

Question

I have started a spdy proxy server using jetty9.

jetty-spdy-proxy.xml:

<New id="sslContextFactory" class="org.eclipse.jetty.util.ssl.SslContextFactory">
  <Set name="KeyStorePath"><Property name="jetty.home" default="." />/etc/keystore</Set>
  <Set name="KeyStorePassword">OBF:1vny1zlo1x8e1vnw1vn61x8g1zlu1vn4</Set>
  <Set name="KeyManagerPassword">OBF:1u2u1wml1z7s1z7a1wnl1u2g</Set>
  <Set name="TrustStorePath"><Property name="jetty.home" default="." />/etc/keystore</Set>
  <Set name="TrustStorePassword">OBF:1vny1zlo1x8e1vnw1vn61x8g1zlu1vn4</Set>
</New>

<New id="tlsHttpConfig" class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.HttpConfiguration">
  <Arg><Ref refid="httpConfig"/></Arg>
  <Call name="addCustomizer">
    <Arg><New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.SecureRequestCustomizer"/></Arg>
  </Call>
</New>

<Call name="addConnector">
  <Arg>
    <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.ServerConnector">
      <Arg name="server"><Ref id="Server" /></Arg>
      <Arg name="factories">
        <Array type="org.eclipse.jetty.server.ConnectionFactory">
          <Item>
            <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.HttpConnectionFactory">
              <Arg name="config"><Ref id="httpConfig" /></Arg>
            </New>
          </Item>
        </Array>
      </Arg>
      <Set name="host"><Property name="jetty.host" /></Set>
      <Set name="port"><Property name="jetty.port" default="9090" /></Set>
      <Set name="idleTimeout">30000</Set>
    </New>
  </Arg>
</Call>

http/1.1 localhost http/1.1 127.0.0.1 9090

8080 8443

This server has started normally.

In my mind, this proxy server can translate spdy to http and proxy it to the target server.

I cannot test it now because I donnot know how to talk to the proxy server with java client(not in browser). I have googled my problem but found nothing, any suggestion here?

Answer 1

Working with raw SPDY is unlike anything you've likely done before.

But that being said, there are unit tests in Jetty 9 that use Jetty's SPDYClient to test its own support of SPDY. They might help you.
