Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-11890:
----------------------------------------
We can do that.
The org.apache.hadoop.hbase.rest.client classes were developed for REST unit
tests and have that as their main use case (that we know of), expectation being
use of the REST gateway is motivated by a client side environment where running
the Java client (including classes in org.apache.hadoop.hbase.rest.client)
isn't an option.
> HBase REST Client is hard coded to http protocol

> Key: HBASE-11890
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11890
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Client
> Affects Versions: 0.96.2
> Reporter: Eric Yang
>
> HBase REST Client executePathOnly only supports http. It would be nice if
> there is a option to enable REST API client to connect through SSL.
> org.apache.hadoop.hbase.rest.client.Cluster class does not indicate which
> protocol can be used, we can either set flag in Cluster class or introduce a
> parameter in Client class to toggle SSL.
