How to send a message through web socket to a connected user?

问题

I want to send a message through a web socket to a specific user. So far I can open a web socket and read message from client like that:

@ServerEndpoint(value = "/wsep")
public class WebSocketEndpoint {

    private static final Logger LOGGER = LoggerFactory.getLogger(WebSocketEndpoint.class);

    private Session session;

    @OnOpen
    public void onOpen(Session session) {
        this.session = session;
        try {
            session.getBasicRemote().sendText("You are connected. Your ID is " + session.getId());
        } catch (Exception e) {
            LOGGER.error("Error on open web socket", e);
        }
    }

    @OnMessage
    public void onClientMessage(String message, Session session) {      
        LOGGER.info("Message from {} is: {}", session.getId(), message);
    }

    @OnClose
    public void onClose(Session session) {
        this.session = null;
        LOGGER.info("{} disconnected", session.getId());
    }
}

I have an independent service which creates message in destination to a user. My Message class is a simple POJO:

public class Message {
    private String fromUserName;
    private String toUserName;
    private String content;
    ...
}

When a new message is created in my MessageService, I want to inform the receiver if he is connected. I think I have to add a method WebSocketEndpoint.onServerMessage:

public void onServerMessage(Session session, Message message) {
    session.getBasicRemote().sendText(message.getContent());
}

But I don't know how to do something like that which works.

There will be one instance of the ServerEndpoint for all your users. So, it should store all client sessions. As Vu.N suggested, one way you can do it is using a map:

Map<String, Session> sessions = new ConcurrentHashMap<>();

public void onOpen(Session session) {
    String username = [...]
    sessions.put(username, session);
}

Then, it will be easy to send the message to the user:

public void onServerMessage(Session session, Message message) {
    sessions.get(message.getToUserName())
            .getBasicRemote() // see also getAsyncRemote()
            .sendText(message.getContent());
}

Now the hardest part is to get the username?

In my past works, I've done it in 3 ways:

1. The client connects to a URL that has some "key". This "key" would be used to find the right username. The WebSocket server endpoint would be like this:

   @ServerEndpoint(value="/wsep/{key}") // the URL will have an extra "key"
   public class WebSocketEndpoint {
   [...]
   @OnOpen
   public void onOpen(Session session, @PathParam("key") String key) {
       String username = getUserNameWithKey(key);
       sessions.add(username, session);
   }
   

2. The client sends some information in the first message. You just ignore the @OnOpen part:

   @OnOpen
   public void onOpen(Session session) {
       LOGGER.info("Session open. ID: {}", session.getId());
   }
   
   @OnMessage
   public void onMessage(Session session, String message) {
       String username = getUserNameFromMessage(message);
       sessions.add(username, session);
   }
   

3. Some user info can be obtained from a cookie, JWT, or something. You'll need a ServerEndpointConfig.Configurator to get that information from the request. For example:

   public class CookieServerConfigurator extends ServerEndpointConfig.Configurator {
   
       @Override
       public void modifyHandshake(ServerEndpointConfig sec, HandshakeRequest request, HandshakeResponse response) {
           Map<String,List<String>> headers = request.getHeaders();
           sec.getUserProperties().put("cookie", headers.get("cookie"));
       }
   }
   

   Then, the server endpoint will point to that configurator:

   @ServerEndpoint(value = "/example2/", configurator = CookieServerConfigurator.class)
   public class WebSocketEndpoint {
   

   and you can get the information like this:

   @OnOpen
   public void onOpen(Session session, EndpointConfig endpointConfig) {
       String username = getUsername((List<String>)endpointConfig.getUserProperties().get("cookie"));
   

You can see some working examples here: https://github.com/matruskan/websocket-example

For more complex systems, you can also have a "tagging system", instead of using a Map. Then, each session can receive messages sent to any of its tags, and a message sent to a tag can be directed to many sessions.
