[jira] [Commented] (FLINK-11692) Add Proxy for DataDog Metric Reporter

["Chesnay Schepler (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-11692?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16773109#comment-16773109 ] 

Chesnay Schepler commented on FLINK-11692:
------------------------------------------

I believe other http reporters don't require this as they have a configurable host.

From what I understand this should be straight-forward; add a configurable host that is inserted into the URLs (see DatadogHttpClient#SERIES_URL_FORMAT and DatadogHttpClient#VALIDATE_URL_FORMAT); and by default we use {{app.datadoghq.com}}.

I've given you contributor permission in case you want to start working on this.

> There's no clear way currently to route just metric traffic through a proxy. Although one can use java http proxy environment variables and an extensive blacklist, the solution is far from elegant or robust. It would be great to have a proxy option for the DataDog metric reporter, and other http metric reporters if the solution is easily extendable.

> Additional sample config lines:
> {code:java}
> metrics.reporter.dghttp.proxyHost: my.proxy.com
> metrics.reporter.dghttp.proxyPort: 8080{code}
>  
> I can take this ticket myself, unless there is already another robust solution to route just metric data through a proxy.
