Hi,
I have a usecase where I have a reverse proxy that uses a customized
ProxyHandler - for some hosts, I need to proxy the requests onwards via a
proxy server - e.g. a bluecoat proxy.
So something like this:
Browser --> Undertow reverse proxy --> Bluecoat Proxy --> Web server
So, I need to use the undertow client with a (non-reverse) proxy server.
I am guessing that with a ClientRequest, for non-ssl requests I should just
be able to change the path from /mypath to
http://my.server.name/mypath
before sending it to the proxy server instead of to the destination host
directly.
But what would be the ideal way of handling this when I need SSL so I need
to wrap the requests inside a "CONNECT my.server.name:443 HTTP/1.1" block
before starting the SSL negotiation ? Any pointers ?
Would creating a specific ClientProvider be a sensible way ?
