Feature #2328
closedmod_proxy to support websockets
Description
This would be nice. It seems that this would work if mod_proxy would just pass the request payload along to the proxied service, but instead mod_proxy is only passing the headers (probably because its a GET and not a POST...)

As the fd-event system in lighttpd 1.x doesn't (didn't? not sure anymore^^) support a bi-directional connection (it operates in different states: first read everything, then write everything), I don't think it will be easy to make that happen.
But it is a goal to support a better http "proxy" mode than just forwarding real http requests in lighttpd 2.0 (not ready yet either).

Since lighttpd 1.4.46, lighttpd mod_cgi, mod_proxy, and mod_wstunnel support websockets. Support in additional dynamic modules mod_scgi and mod_fastcgi has been added in lighttpd 1.4.74.
