[jira] [Commented] (TINKERPOP-2158) Provide the means to specify a corporate proxy for gremlin console and Java SDK

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2158?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17012138#comment-17012138 ] 

Stephen Mallette commented on TINKERPOP-2158:
---------------------------------------------

I think about this one from time to time. I think that this feature is best implemented by users to meet the exact needs they may have. We have the framework necessary for allowing that already I think. Users would simply implement their own {{Channelizer}} implementation - i.e. extend {{Channelizer.WebSocketChannelizer}}. Then it would just be a matter of overriding {{configure(ChannelPipeline)}} to add the [Netty proxy handler|https://netty.io/4.1/api/io/netty/handler/proxy/package-summary.html] required by the environment. I'd think it to be something like:

{code}
@Override
public void configure(ChannelPipeline pipeline) {
    pipeline.addFirst(new Socks5ProxyHandler(new InetSocketAddress(socksProxyHost, socksProxyPort)));
    super.configure(pipeline);
}
{code}

Then once that custom {{Channelizer}} is ready, just configure the {{Cluster}} with it on construction using the {{channelizer(Class)}} builder method or in the case of the Gremlin Console, just compile the custom {{Channelizer}} to a jar, put it on the Gremlin Console path and then modify the configuration file to use that new channelizer, like:

{code}
hosts: [localhost]
port: 8182
serializer: { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GraphBinaryMessageSerializerV1, config: { serializeResultToString: true }}
connectionPool: { channelizer: com.mycompany.MyProxyChannelizer }
{code}
