I have successfully created a simple unit test testing a get using the apache
http client without camel.
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
HttpMethod method = new GetMethod("http://www.google.co.uk";);
HostConfiguration config = client.getHostConfiguration();
config.setProxy(PROXY_HOST, PROXY_PORT);
try {
client.executeMethod(method);
if (method.getStatusCode() == HttpStatus.SC_OK) {
String response = method.getResponseBodyAsString();
System.out.println("Response = " + response);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
method.releaseConnection();
}
}
The above works nicely. However I'm struggling to put this back into my
configure method with camel.
public void configure() {
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
client.getHostConfiguration().setProxy("PROXY_HOST",
PROXY_PORT);
HttpEndpoint endpoint =
context.getEndpoint("http://www.google.co.uk",HttpEndpoint.class);
BasicAuthenticationHttpClientConfigurer config = new
BasicAuthenticationHttpClientConfigurer("","");
config.configureHttpClient(client);
endpoint.setHttpClientConfigurer(config);
from("direct:start")
.setHeader(HttpConstants.HTTP_METHOD,
constant(org.apache.camel.component.http.HttpMethods.GET))
.to("http://www.google.co.uk";).to("mock:results");
}
The problem I have is that the setHttpClientConfigurer takes a
HttpClientConfigurer which is an interface and the only implementation is
the BasicAuthenticationHttpClientConfigurer which has to have a username and
password which I don't require. I thought I could maybe hack around it above
but it doesn't work.
The question is should I create my own subclass of HttpClientConfigurer or
am I going about this completely the wrong way? Or maybe it is better for me
to write my own HttpProducer/Consumer or custom processor which would be a
bit of a shame.
Thanks
