Basically I want to run websockify for proxying for websockets, the python version is a far cry for windows. I need detailed specific help, link or anything explaining how to configure/use websockify with nodejs or java.

The node.js works fine in Windows. It has a subset of the same parameters as the python version. For example, to listen on localhost port 6080 and connect to vncserver port 5901 and serve the web files from the current directory, run it like this:
node other/js/websockify.js --web ./ localhost:6080 vncserver:5901

And then what URL do I use to connect? I assume it something like http://localhost:6080?wsirc.html?host=localhost&port=6080 but that doesn't appear to be connecting for me. I have the python websockify working (not at the same time, that would be a conflict), so I know I can connect via noVNC, just don't know how to use the node websockify. – Owen Ivory Dec 15 '17 at 18:48

Are you running your browser on the same machine? Also, make sure you load the HTML via a web server and not by opening a local file directly (e.g. file://) because local file pages are not allowed to make websocket connections. – kanaka Dec 18 '17 at 15:41

Thanks for trying kanaka, it seems that hosting the page got me a little farther, but I am still not understanding what is happening, and it isn't working. My project has the python version of noVNC/websockify working now, so while I am curious, I won't be spending more time on this. – Owen Ivory Dec 19 '17 at 00:40
