java - Monitoring HTTP requests and WebSockets in Netbeans -

i writing http , websocket client in java connect http server.

i wrote similar in js before , able use network tab of developer tools in firefox , chrome see http requests sent , websocket messages exchanged.

my question is: there tool or plugin netbeans see these same requests , messages?

if intent observe / log / inspect outgoing , incoming connections tool, need intercept traffic somehow.

wireshark can that. if transport on ssl wireshark may not help.

you use reverse proxy charles, intercept traffic , inspect there. https://www.charlesproxy.com/documentation/proxying/reverse-proxy/

also, here similar question : log network interactions of java application

hope helps. also, not entirely sure why need netbeans plugin? when application running, in own jvm, unless planning on packaging plugin tool, don't see how can use it.
