Demo of running a backend behind either nginx or httpd with HTTP/2 support and server sent events. nginx does not support HTTP/2 when proxy-ing, although it supports HTTP/2 from the client to nginx.

Certificates

In order to regenerate certificate if it expires, run the following:

openssl genrsa -out ./certs/server.key 2048
openssl req -new -x509 -key ./certs/server.key -out ./certs/server.crt -days 365 -subj "/CN=localhost"

Running

There are a couple of run profiles in the .run directory which are recognized by IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate:

• demo - runs demo application with /demo (GET) and /demo/sse (server sent events) on localhost:8080
• nginx - starts nginx from docker-compose.yaml
• httpd - starts httpd from docker-compose.yaml
• demo-with-nginx - starts demo and nginx
• demo-with-httpd - starts demo and http
