             Summary: HTTPSource saving client ip and some http-headers into event
                 Key: FLUME-2764
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2764
             Project: Flume
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Sinks+Sources
            Reporter: dima levchenko


I plan to use flume as a receiver of events coming from javascript applications. For each event I would like to store an IP from which this event comes. Because flume can be behind some proxy, I also would like to be able to retrieve original IP from headers set by this proxy.

this behavior seems pretty common for http components, so I would like to suggest an improvement for HTTPSource to dump remote ip, and/or some headers into event headers.

thank you for comments :)
