Hello all, I have been facing an issue when I try to create a HTTP client which needs to connect through a HTTPS proxy using the HTTP CONNEC method. I know that it can be achieved setting my own http.Transport object. However the issue seems to be in the current implementation of /net/http/transport.go code.
In my environment, I am developing a HTTP client which ALWAYS use a HTTPS proxy using HTTP CONNECT method. This client is allowed to reach HTTP or HTTPS targets. Therefore, I noticed that when I try to reach a HTTPS target, the the transport layer works as expected and it uses the HTTP CONNECT method. However, when I try to reach a HTTP target, the transport does not use the CONNECT method. Looking at the transport.go code, I realized that the check to use the CONNECT method is based on the protocol of the target instead of being on the protocol of the proxy URL. Below is a link showing that: 1. HTTP check https://cs.opensource.google/go/go/+/refs/tags/go1.9.5:src/net/http/transport.go;l=1092 2. HTTPS check https://cs.opensource.google/go/go/+/refs/tags/go1.9.5:src/net/http/transport.go;l=1099 As can be seen on the links above, the condition is based on cm <https://cs.opensource.google/go/go/+/refs/tags/go1.9.5:src/net/http/transport.go;drc=7ab361531514764fdccb23283a2e7f1916b74b87;l=1570> .targetScheme <https://cs.opensource.google/go/go/+/refs/tags/go1.9.5:src/net/http/transport.go;drc=7ab361531514764fdccb23283a2e7f1916b74b87;l=1816> instead of cm <https://cs.opensource.google/go/go/+/refs/tags/go1.9.5:src/net/http/transport.go;drc=7ab361531514764fdccb23283a2e7f1916b74b87;l=1570> .proxyURL <https://cs.opensource.google/go/go/+/refs/tags/go1.9.5:src/net/http/transport.go;drc=7ab361531514764fdccb23283a2e7f1916b74b87;l=1815> .Scheme <https://cs.opensource.google/go/go/+/refs/tags/go1.9.5:src/net/url/url.go;drc=7ab361531514764fdccb23283a2e7f1916b74b87;l=363>.
