Add support for proxy and non proxy hosts about microprofile-rest-client

@Ravisankar-Challa could you provide some more information here?

I think for MP Rest Client 1.0, we'll implement this item similarly to issue #53 - where proxy configuration of proxy host/port/etc is done via vendor-specific properties. For many implementations, the proxyHost/proxyPort system properties will work (assuming that the underlying client implementation uses HttpUrlConnection). Otherwise clients could use vendor-specific properties via the RestClientBuilder.property(String, Object) API.

For future versions of the MP Rest Client, we should consider making this more standard - maybe a new method(s) on RestClientBuilder for proxy config.

@johnament
Thanks for clarifying that future versions provide a standard (vendor neutral) way of specifying proxy and non proxy hosts.

Kindly let me know how is this issue resloved , what is the method RestClientbuilder to set in the proxy host and the port . I still have the issue .

@rcgitaccounnt Thanks for the post. I'll try to get something written up for this for the 2.0 release.

In short, I think we will need new proxyHost(...) and proxyPort(...) methods on the RestClientBuilder and the similar MP Config properties.

The deadline for 2.0 is coming quickly though, so I cannot make any promises. The changes to the spec document and API are fairly simple, but testing an implementation with the TCK may be somewhat complex.

@andymc12 Thanks for your reply . hopefully awaiting in the release 2.0

After some more thought, I will plan to use a single proxyAddress(String host, int port) method. This makes it one less line of code for most users, and avoids scenarios where the port is specified but the hostname isn't, etc.

@andymc12 Thanks for your support

Was proxy authentication forgotten or isn't it a feature obviously required in companies that use proxies?
