Use another channel to send bearer tokens

Hello :)

That's seem odd to me because query params is kind of the only way to pass information with the websocet javascript API from browser.

Would you mind sharing the log of wstunnel client and server with the env variable RUST_LOG=trace set ? So I can take a look at what the server receive.

If you are right, I can try to pass the info in the Sec-WebSocket-Protocol header

Would you mind trying release v8.5.0 and let me know if it works better for you ? https://github.com/erebe/wstunnel/releases/tag/v8.5.0

I now pass tunnel info into Sec-WebSocket-Protocol header

feel free to re-open if needed

@erebe I have done a little bit more digging and I am pretty sure it was just me that did not configure the cloudfront distribution properly (it does not forward query parameters by default).

So I guess whether you send it through a header or a query param should not make a difference.

Apologies for the overrun 😄

Hey no worries, and thanks for letting me know :)

In the end, I think passing the tunnel info inside the weboscket header protocol is more future-proof, as it is part of the spec ^^

Enjoy :)
