Question

SOLVED (following answer)

I am using Starscream library to create a safe websocket wss in the test server we have a self-signed certificate and I find it impossible to make the connection.

var socket = WebSocket(url: NSURL(scheme: "wss", host: "selfsignedserver.com", path: "/")!)

Answer 1

I solved the problem by allowing self-signed certificates Starscream modifying the library. To this must be added the arcivo WebSocket.swift the following code:

if url.scheme == "wss" || url.scheme == "https" {
        inputStream!.setProperty(NSStreamSocketSecurityLevelNegotiatedSSL, forKey: NSStreamSocketSecurityLevelKey)
        outputStream!.setProperty(NSStreamSocketSecurityLevelNegotiatedSSL, forKey: NSStreamSocketSecurityLevelKey)

        /* My code */
        var settings = Dictionary<NSObject, NSObject>()
        settings[kCFStreamSSLValidatesCertificateChain] = NSNumber(bool:false)
        settings[kCFStreamSSLPeerName] = kCFNull

        CFReadStreamSetProperty(self.inputStream, kCFStreamPropertySSLSettings, settings)
        CFWriteStreamSetProperty(self.outputStream, kCFStreamPropertySSLSettings, settings)
        /* End my code*/

    }
