Motivation:
HTTP is a plaintext protocol which means that someone may be able
to eavesdrop the data. To prevent this, HTTPS should be used whenever
possible. However, maintaining using https:// in all URLs may be
difficult. The nohttp tool can help here. The tool scans all the files
in a repository and reports where http:// is used.
Modifications:
- Added nohttp (via checkstyle) into the build process.
- Suppressed findings for the websites
that don't support HTTPS or that are not reachable
Result:
- Prevent using HTTP in the future.
- Encourage users to use HTTPS when they follow the links they found in
the code.
Motivation:
LGTM reports multiple issues. They need to be triaged,
and real ones should be fixed.
Modifications:
- Fixed multiple issues reported by LGTM, such as redundant conditions,
resource leaks, typos, possible integer overflows.
- Suppressed false-positives.
- Added a few testcases.
Result:
Fixed several possible issues, get rid of false alarms in the LGTM report.
Motivation:
MQTT Specification version 5 was released over a year ago,
netty-codec-mqtt should be changed to support it.
Modifications:
Added more message and header types in `io.netty.handler.codec.mqtt`
package in `netty-coded-mqtt` subproject,
changed `MqttEncoder` and `MqttDecoder` to handle them properly,
added attribute `NETTY_CODEC_MQTT_VERSION` to track protocol version
Result:
`netty-codec-mqtt` supports both MQTT5 and MQTT3 now.
Motivation:
Avoid keeping unused dependencies around.
Modification:
Remove all references to javassist dependency, since it does not appear to be used by anything.
Result:
One less dependency to worry about.
Motivation:
This request only has headers frame, it should set endOfStream flag, or
it will never get a response.
Modifications:
Set endOfStream=true in header frame.
Result:
Http2FrameClient can get a response now.
Motivation:
Current implementation `StompSubframeEncoder` can encode `StompFrame` into several separate chunks or encode separately `StompHeadersSubframe` and `StompContentSubframe`. But some client libraries (e.g. stomp.js) do not support aggregation.
Modification:
Add StompWebSocketFrameEncoder for integration between origin stomp suframe encoder and `ContinuationWebSocketFrame` to support chunks on transport level.
Result:
Fixes#10261
Motivation:
[DNS-over-TLS (DoT)](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7858.html) encrypts DNS queries and sends it over TLS connection to make sure queries are secure in transit.
[TCP DNS](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7766) sends DNS queries over TCP connection (unencrypted).
Modification:
Add DNS-over-TLS (DoT) Client Example which uses TLSv1.2 and TLSv1.3.
Add TCP DNS Client Example
Result:
DNS-over-TLS (DoT) Client Example
TCP DNS Client Example
Motivation:
Add support for HAProxyMessageEncoder.
This should help java based HAProxy server implementations propagate proxy information.
Modification:
Add public constructors for `HAProxyMessage`, `HAProxyTLV`, `HAProxySSLTLV`.
Add additional argument checks for `HAProxyMessage` and modify exceptions thrown when creating via public constructors directly.
Introduce a `@Sharable` `HAProxyMessageEncoder` which encodes a `HAProxyMessage` into a byte array.
Add an example `HAProxyServer` and `HAProxyClient` to `io.netty.example`
Result:
Fixes#10164
Motivation:
Often people want to use `stomp-codec` with WebSocket transport or other but cannot figure out how can do this staff on Netty.
Modification:
Create example for demonstrating integration between STOMP and WebSocket.
Inspired by https://github.com/jmesnil/stomp-websocket
Result:
Fixes#9383
**Motivation:**
When I was previously working on a project using Netty's HTTP/2 support, I used the newer frames approach but I struggled to find any good examples or documentation online. I did, however, see a few people ask the same (or similar) questions as me on StackOverflow and a couple of older Netty Github issues.
Reading issue [9733](https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/9733) therefore prompted me to pull together a few bits of code into this HTTP/2 frame client example.
**Modification:**
Populated the previously-empty `example/src/main/java/io/netty/example/http2/helloworld/frame/client/` folder with a HTTP/2 frame client example.
**Result:**
Gives a clear example of how the newer HTTP/2 support can be used for Netty clients.
Motivation:
java.io.File.listFiles() may return null and cause a unexpected NPE.
Modification:
Extract a local variable from the return value of File.listFiles() and do a null check.
Result:
Fix the potential NPE.
Motivation:
Since "Http2ClientInitializer" creates a new SSLContext Handler without specifying Host, Netty does not add SNI Extension in TLS Client Hello request and the request fails if the server uses SNI to establish TLS Connection.
Modification:
Specified Host while creating a new SSLContext Handler in "Http2ClientInitializer".
Result:
Netty adds SNI Extension of the Host Specified in new SSLContext Handler and sends it with TLS Client Hello request.
Fixes#9815.
Motivation:
After fix#9377 some websocket examples work incorrect
Modification:
Replace `Unpooled.EMPTY_BUFFER` to `ctx.alloc().buffer(0)` for responses with possible content
Result:
Examples work
Motivation:
In many places Netty uses Unpooled.buffer(0) while should use EMPTY_BUFFER. We can't change this due to back compatibility in the constructors but can use Unpooled.EMPTY_BUFFER in some cases to ensure we not allocate at all. In others we can directly use the allocator either from the Channel / ChannelHandlerContext or the request / response.
Modification:
- Use Unpooled.EMPTY_BUFFER where possible
- Use allocator where possible
Result:
Fixes#9345 for websockets and http package
Motivation:
Recently I'm going to build MQTT broker and client based on Netty. I had MQTT encoder and decoder founded, while no basic examples. So I'm going to share my simple heartBeat MQTT broker and client as an example.
Modification:
New MQTT heartBeat example under io.netty.example/mqtt/heartBeat/.
Result:
Client would send CONNECT and PINGREQ(heartBeat message).
- CONNECT: once channel active
- PINGREQ: once IdleStateEvent triggered, which is 20 seconds in this example
Client would discard all messages it received.
MQTT broker could handle CONNECT, PINGREQ and DISCONNECT messages.
- CONNECT: send CONNACK back
- PINGREQ: send PINGRESP back
- DISCONNECT: close the channel
Broker would close the channel if 2 heartBeat lost, which set to 45 seconds in this example.
