----------------------------------
Summary: Allow Nifi to connect to Datadog through a proxy
Key: NIFI-4712
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4712
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Extensions
Affects Versions: 1.4.0
Reporter: Robert Batts
Nifi should be able to report metrics to Datadog via direct connection through
a proxy. Currently, Nifi attempts a direct connection to Datadog (seen in the
org.apache.nifi.reporting.datadog.DDMetricRegistryBuilder class) when a API key
that is not "agent" is given. This connection should be allowed to go through a
proxy instead of just being forced to use the agent. This should be as easy as
a .withProxy()
(https://github.com/coursera/metrics-datadog/blob/master/metrics-datadog/src/main/java/org/coursera/metrics/datadog/transport/HttpTransport.java#L83)
and possibly adding a proxy host and proxy port attribute similar to what is
used in the AWS modules.
