    public interface ServerContainer
    extends WebSocketContainer
    The ServerContainer is the specialized view of the WebSocketContainer available in server-side deployments. There is one ServerContainer instance per websocket application. The ServerContainer holds the methods to be able to register server endpoints.

    For websocket enabled web containers, developers may obtain a reference to the ServerContainer instance by retrieving it as an attribute named jakarta.websocket.server.ServerContainer on the ServletContext. This way, the registration methods held on this interface may be called to register server endpoints from a ServletContextListener during the deployment of the WAR file containing the endpoint. Server endpoints may also be registered after the web application has started.

    WebSocket implementations that run outside the web container may have other means by which to provide a ServerContainer instance to the developer at application deployment time.

    Once the application deployment phase is complete, and the websocket application has begun accepting incoming connections, the registration methods may no longer be called.

      • addEndpoint

        void addEndpoint​(java.lang.Class<?> endpointClass)
                  throws DeploymentException
        Deploys the given annotated endpoint into this ServerContainer.
        Parameters:
        endpointClass - the class of the annotated endpoint
        Throws:
        DeploymentException - if the annotated endpoint was badly formed.
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the containing websocket application has already been deployed.
      • addEndpoint

        void addEndpoint​(ServerEndpointConfig serverConfig)
                  throws DeploymentException
        Deploys the given endpoint described by the provided configuration into this ServerContainer.
        Parameters:
        serverConfig - the configuration instance representing the logical endpoint that will be registered.
        Throws:
        DeploymentException - if the endpoint was badly formed.
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the containing websocket application has already been deployed.
      • upgradeHttpToWebSocket

        void upgradeHttpToWebSocket​(java.lang.Object httpServletRequest,
                                    java.lang.Object httpServletResponse,
                                    ServerEndpointConfig sec,
                                    java.util.Map<java.lang.String,​java.lang.String> pathParameters)
                             throws java.io.IOException,
                                    DeploymentException
        Upgrade the HTTP connection represented by the HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse to the WebSocket protocol and establish a WebSocket connection as per the provided ServerEndpointConfig.

        This method is primarily intended to be used by frameworks that implement the front-controller pattern. It does not deploy the provided endpoint.

        If the WebSocket implementation is not deployed as part of a Jakarta Servlet container, this method will throw an UnsupportedOperationException.

        Parameters:
        httpServletRequest - The HttpServletRequest to be processed as a WebSocket handshake as per section 4.0 of RFC 6455.
        httpServletResponse - The HttpServletResponse to be used when processing the httpServletRequest as a WebSocket handshake as per section 4.0 of RFC 6455.
        sec - The server endpoint configuration to use to configure the WebSocket endpoint
        pathParameters - Provides a mapping of path parameter names and values, if any, to be used for the WebSocket connection established by the call to this method. If no such mapping is defined, an empty Map must be passed.
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the provided request does not meet the requirements of the WebSocket handshake
        java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - if the WebSocket implementation is not deployed as part of a Jakarta Servlet container
        java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs during the establishment of a WebSocket connection
        DeploymentException - if a configuration error prevents the establishment of a WebSocket connection
        Since:
        WebSocket 2.1
