This is excellent. I've been looking to better understand what is going on with WebSockets and Nginx. This is certainly one of the best explanations available on you tube, most simply say copy this code and paste it into locations.
Thank you so much, You don't know how I spent the last 7 days in nightmare with that problem, Finally I found you, You deserve more than a subscribe and a like. P.S: Do you have a Patreon or something like that you must get at least some appreciation.
Can you do this with an another Node process, over a different port....Or it needs to be 8080? Is it possible for example to have another location block, where you would proxy pass websocet connection , over maybee 4000?
Hi, I am facing issue in same scenario. Could you please guide me in this. I have react application which connects to tomcat server using nodejs server. On server all the API logic is implemented and now I want to implement websocket which will first connect to node server then tomacat server. I just know the there should be a tunneling logic needs to be implemented but I don't know how to do that. Could you please help me in this.
To be honest I have never tried it in production, however it looks like Nginx has "http2" flag that should make things "just work". The server configuration block should look like "listen 443 ssl http2 default_server;" to have both SSL and HTTP2. Disclaimer: haven't tried it and don't know if it will work :)
can anyone help me i making a microservice to handle 50k concurrent request on node js and socket io i want to divide the load on multiple connection and those connection should not close or die when user leave all 50k connection should me maintaind
Hmm, not quite sure how this is supposed to work though. If the user leaves and closes their side of the connection, the connection will be closed. Overall, I would recommend looking at something that has auto-scaling, for example AWS API Gateway + Lambdas, if the load is spiky and you need elasticity. For experimental purposes I found this article insightful: unetworkingab.medium.com/millions-of-active-websockets-with-node-js-7dc575746a01
nginx is executed as user "nginx" it also has very limited permissions. When you run > systemctl start nginx, the script switches from "root" to "nginx" user if that makes sense.
Thanks for your awesome videos I have a graphql nodejs server which have just one endpoint. So how can I set up both http and websocket on one location. Because graphql only have one endpoint
how about import { WebSocketLink } from "apollo-link-ws"; import { HttpLink } from "apollo-link-http"; import { split } from "apollo-link"; import { getMainDefinition } from "apollo-utilities"; const httpLink = new HttpLink({ uri: "hasura-infiite-loader.herokuapp.com/v1alpha1/graphql" // use https for secure endpoint }); // Create a WebSocket link: const wsLink = new WebSocketLink({ uri: "ws://hasura-infiite-loader.herokuapp.com/v1alpha1/graphql", // use wss for a secure endpoint options: { reconnect: true } }); // using the ability to split links, you can send data to each link // depending on what kind of operation is being sent const link = split( // split based on operation type ({ query }) => { const { kind, operation } = getMainDefinition(query); return kind === "OperationDefinition" && operation === "subscription"; }, wsLink, httpLink );
I think you just helped me out tremendously. I use application manager for jump starting my node application which support showed me. However it doesn't work with websockets on my socket.io app that I have. I have many php applications running and don't want to disturb them so doing ngnix would need to be not disturbing my apache applications. I did your video earlier and killed all my php applications so I have ngnix installed but it's disabled. How can I do this same process just on apache to get websockets work. I have been looking for months and this is the closet video I could find even touching basis on my most biggest hurdle in development yet. It has halted all my nodejs applications because webrtc is the only reason I want to use node and because I can't get sockets configured on my centos 7 machine I have stopped for over 6 months now. Please advise you or anyone.
@@jack82822005 we don't :) we choose which HTTP version will proxy use. 1.1 is currently the most reasonable choice. The other option would be 2.0, but HTTP2 is a whole different story. Don't worry, HTTP 1.1 was released in 1997, so everything supports it.
Bros above time. Seeing in 2024 Oct. Same error. Local runs, vps fails. If chat gpt was a mortal It would be dead by now. Chat gpt crap, bro is sigma 🎉
I _ L O V E _ U _ S O _ M U CH _ ! i struggled since 2 Days with my Ubunto 18.04 Server and Polling. Now i have a great WebSocket-Connection and my game runs sooooo smooth now
This series need to be spread around , great work
I've spent 2 days trying to find a solution to my error, even chatgpt failed to help.
Thank you so much you video help me a lot 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you! I searched all over for this solution.
Broooo you're the king, i literally spent an evening trying to host my ws server, and i finally found your video, thank god, you saved me, ilusm bro ❤
Really great video. Love showing the dev tools and different network options (web sockets, XML ajax requests)
Hi! what if you want websocket to listen in a different socket but keep website on socket 8080?
Thank you for showing how to configure it. This saves me hours of work. :-)
Gread short snippets. Easy to digest. Love it.

failed: WebSocket is closed before the connection is established.
I love this video series! Please make more things like this! :D

I have set mqtt connections to the same path as my website but with different ports, how would I go about solving that?
What if have ssl and i want to do using wss
you said you'd post the config file? Is it on another video?
on port 80 io was run but I have CORS issue when ssl is activated? can you help me please!
How diffrent is configuration if we are working with https/2?
To be honest I have never tried it in production, however it looks like Nginx has "http2" flag that should make things "just work". The server configuration block should look like "listen 443 ssl http2 default_server;" to have both SSL and HTTP2. Disclaimer: haven't tried it and don't know if it will work :)
Thanks for getting back to me.
it works🎉 thank you so much❤❤❤

I saw that you used port 80, if I'm using ssl do I need to set 443 right ?
Jhony Souza right, but setting up SSL is a bit more complex than that. There’s another video about it in a playlist.
@@JuriyBura Thanks very much !
It worked!! thanks bro
Thanks! Simple solution and very well explained
You saved my life!
Life saving video. Thank you very much :)
How come its okay to run all nginx related tasks as root but switch to a different user when working with pm2/node.js
nginx is executed as user "nginx" it also has very limited permissions. When you run > systemctl start nginx, the script switches from "root" to "nginx" user if that makes sense.
Спасибо, очень выручили!
Thanks, really useful video!
How to do all this with ssl is what confuses me.

Can you Create a Video about deploying the socket.io app in the server using node and react from scratch
bro plz tell us for https
and wss
Thank you so so much!
Good Job man. thanks.
How could I know if the version of http is 1.1?
thanks!!! >
What do you mean by that? How do you make sure that the browser is indeed using HTTP1.1?
I mean at 4:33, you set "proxy_http_version" as 1.1 , but how do we get that number?
@@jack82822005 we don't :) we choose which HTTP version will proxy use. 1.1 is currently the most reasonable choice. The other option would be 2.0, but HTTP2 is a whole different story. Don't worry, HTTP 1.1 was released in 1997, so everything supports it.
Oh OK I see!!
so we use HTTP 1.1 in most case, right?
Will you create another video to talk about HTTP 2? XD
Thanks so much
Genius!
Muchas gracias me ayudaste a configurar mi servidor php para usar con websocket y asi hacer un chat real-time
