Documents how browser apps connect to Memgraph: Bolt over WebSocket works on the Bolt port only without SSL, so a page served over HTTPS should query Memgraph through a backend. Also clarifies the SSL page's WebSocket tab, which read as if no WebSocket supported SSL; the log WebSocket on 7444 does.

Checked on Memgraph 3.13.0 (c829e614) in Docker:

  • Bolt over ws:// on 7687 without SSL: handshake succeeds.
  • With --bolt-cert-file/--bolt-key-file set, ws:// and wss:// on 7687 both fail.
  • Log WebSocket on 7444 with SSL on: wss:// connects, ws:// fails.

Noticed, not fixed

Read by the release check, which fixes these in one PR per release. Fix an item if it's wrong; keep the heading and one line per item, starting with the page.

  • pages/database-management/ssl-encryption.mdx: Memgraph Lab tab says logs can't be viewed over SSL; Lab 2.1.2 release notes say this was fixed.
  • pages/database-management/ssl-encryption.mdx: mgconsole tab passes --use-ssl=true to the memgraph-mage image in a docker run command, where it's a server flag, not an mgconsole flag; "mgconsol" typo.
  • pages/database-management/ssl-encryption.mdx: PHP example is fenced as python.
  • pages/client-libraries/javascript.mdx: frontmatter title "JavaScript quick start" doesn't match the # heading "JavaScript client guide"; description starts with "Understand the dynamics".
