Websocket Source Connector ​

stream Scan table

The NeuronEX data processing module acquires data via the Websocket data source.

Create Stream ​

Log in to NeuronEX, click Data Processing -> Sources. In the Stream Management tab, click Create Stream.

In the pop-up Source / Create page, enter the following configuration:

  • Stream Name: Enter the stream name

  • Is Structured Stream: Unchecked

  • Stream Type: Select Websocket

  • Configuration Key: You can edit using the default configuration group, or click Add Configuration Group. In the pop-up dialog, configure as follows:

    • Name: Enter the configuration group name
    • Websocket Address: Enter the Websocket server address
    • Client Certificate: Enter the path to the crt file for Websocket client SSL verification
    • Client Private Key: Enter the path to the key file for Websocket client SSL verification
    • CA File: Enter the path to the ca certificate file for Websocket client SSL verification
    • Skip Certificate Verification: Whether to skip SSL verification

  • Stream Format: Supports json, binary, protobuf, delimited, custom

  • Shared: Check to confirm whether to share the source

As a Websocket Client ​

A Websocket data source can act as a Websocket client, initiating a Websocket connection to a remote Websocket server and receiving data over that connection as a message source.

When acting as a Websocket client, you need to specify the Websocket Address, for example: 127.0.0.1:8080; and fill in the Data Source configuration item on the create data source page as follows: /api/data;

At this point, the Websocket data source will act as a Websocket client, establishing a Websocket connection to 127.0.0.1:8080/api/data and receiving data over this connection as a message source.

As a Websocket Server ​

A Websocket data source can also act as a Websocket server. In this case, a remote Websocket client can actively initiate a Websocket connection to NeuronEX, and NeuronEX will receive messages over that Websocket connection as a message source.

When acting as a Websocket server, the Websocket Address can be left blank, and the Data Source configuration item can be configured as follows: /api/data;

At this point, NeuronEX will act as a Websocket server, using itself as the host, and waiting for Websocket connections to be established at the /api/data URL, receiving data over these connections as a message source.

The default Websocket port is 10081. To modify this port, you need to change it in the source section of the configuration file located at /opt/neuronex/software/ekuiper/etc:

yaml
source:
  ## Configurations for the global websocket server for websocket source
  # HTTP data service ip
  httpServerIp: 0.0.0.0
  # HTTP data service port
  httpServerPort: 10081
  # httpServerTls:
  #    certfile: /var/https-server.crt
  #    keyfile: /var/https-server.key

Users can specify the following properties:

  • httpServerIp: IP to bind the Websocket data server.
  • httpServerPort: Port to bind the Websocket data server.
  • httpServerTls: Configuration of the Websocket server's TLS.

The global server initializes when any rule requiring an Websocket source is activated. It terminates once all associated rules are closed.
