How to use a proxy to access ims-na1.adobelogin.com ?

[stoerr]

Hi!

I need to use the aio-lib-java-cloudmanager on a host where you would need a proxy to access the cloud manager api at ims-na1.adobelogin.com . How can I do this? Unfortunately, setting the system properties -Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy.stw.intra -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 doesn't seem to do anything there. Is there another way to set a proxy?

Thank you so much, and thanks for this nicely done library!

Best regards,
Hans-Peter

Platform and Version

aio-lib-cloudmanager version 1.0.0 running on OpenJDK 1.8.0_265-b01 on Linux

Sample Code that illustrates the problem

    AdobeClientCredentials credentials = new AdobeClientCredentials(orgId, technicalAccountId, clientIdApiKey, clientSecret, privateKey);
    IdentityManagementApi imApi = IdentityManagementApi.create();
    String token = imApi.authenticate(credentials);

should not work when running it if you set an invalid proxy, -Dhttp.proxyHost=nowhere.neverland -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 , or whatever way is appropriate to set a proxy. Conversely, if you set a proxy, it should be used. But perhaps there is another, right, way to set a proxy.

I actually got it to work, but rather as a horrible hack. The ApiClient classes provide hooks performAdditionalClientConfiguration where you can set the connectorProvider to something that supports a proxy. But you have subclass them to add a proxy configuration:

        protected void performAdditionalClientConfiguration(ClientConfig clientConfig) {
            super.performAdditionalClientConfiguration(clientConfig);
            if (StringUtils.isNotBlank(proxy)) {
                // only JettyConnectorProvider and ApacheConnectorProvider support proxy for jersey 2.29.1 .
                clientConfig.connectorProvider(new ApacheConnectorProvider());
                clientConfig.property(ClientProperties.PROXY_URI, proxy);
            }
        }

Even worse, proxy cannot be an instance variable here, since that's called from the constructor of ApiClient, where such an instance variable wouldn't be initialized in a subclass. And there are two pretty identical classes named ApiClient. And you have to modify the private variables apiClient in IdentityManagementApiImpl and CloudManagerApiImpl . Ouch!
So it'd be nice if that could be restructured, so that it's possible to do that in a clean way.

Thank you so much!

Proxying in v1.0 was problematic. This updated version should honor the standard OS and JVM proxy system/environment variables - it's should be handled by Feign under the hood.
