http proxy support

[sub...@gmail.com]

I'm interested in proxying http requests with akka-http. Based on what I've read so far I need to enable the configuration and then it should work with Http().singleRequest

however it's not connecting through the proxy. I have the following config in application.conf

akka.http {

host-connection-pool {

  client {

    proxy {

      http {

        host = 127.0.0.1

        post = 8888

      }

    }

  }

}

}

and following code

val responseFuture: Future[HttpResponse] =
  Http().singleRequest(HttpRequest(uri = "http://akka.io"))

val response: HttpResponse = Await.result(responseFuture, Duration.Inf)

println(response.status.intValue())

SBT has

libraryDependencies += "com.typesafe.akka" %% "akka-http-core" % "2.4.11"
libraryDependencies += "com.typesafe.akka" %% "akka-http-experimental" % "2.4.11"

Hi,

this config was supported in Spray but wasn't yet ported over to akka-http.

May I ask where you got that info from?

Cheers

http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka-stream-and-http-experimental/2.0/scala/http/configuration.html

also in the 2.4.11 docs but can't find that link at the moment

prior to the client section, under host-connection-pool it says

1. # Please note that this section mirrors `akka.http.client` however is used only for pool-based APIs,
2. # such as `Http().superPool` or `Http().singleRequest`.

If that feature is not yet in Akka, is there any solution to get proxy support for use with Akka Streams? For example could I use a Netty or other http implementation and create a Source from that? Thanks!

Would be interested in opinion here as well, and clarification whether it works at least for `superPool` or `singleRequest`.
