Connect to engine using HTTP headers #10

This will enable support for:

JWT (or any other schema our users might have for) authentication
Separating engine sessions

FredrikFolkesson commented 6 years ago

I guess we want JWT support and not https?

peol commented 6 years ago

HTTPS (i.e. WSS) is already supported AFAIK.

FredrikFolkesson commented 6 years ago

@peol But not supported in engine yet?

peol commented 6 years ago

Engine doesn't need to support it, but you might have to go through a reverse proxy (like we have in assisted prescription and urbanization) to access your engine. It's using secure websocket between corectl and the proxy, but a regular websocket internally (from proxy to engine).
