Clean way to deploy a proxy client #72

Open zhenyu-zhou opened 7 years ago

zhenyu-zhou commented 7 years ago

Hello,

I need to implement a proxy (client side) with Wangle. The proxy server is already there, which is a simple HTTP proxy - the client can CONNECT to it, and send the message via the tunnel.

So I already have a pipeline ready, which is able to communicate with the destination directly. Does anyone have good ideas how to extend the original pipeline to support proxy? (ie. the direct destination is fixed to be the proxy while each connection can be configured in advance for the actual destination. I have no idea how to CONNECT to the server and distinguish different connections based on the actual destination.)

Thanks in advance!

Zhenyu

@zhenyu-zhou sorry for the late reply. Are you trying to use HTTP CONNECT from your client - in which case you would need to add support for parsing / reconnecting to a different upstream. You might be able to use the proxygen library for this.
