How to configure async apache http client 5 to use SOCKS proxy?

I'm trying to configure async http client to use SOCKS proxy. Here is the answer for sync http client. I don't know how to set ConnectionSocketFactory to async http client. Is it possible?

Solution

  • It turns out it's even easier than in sync http client:

    HttpAsyncClients.custom()
        .setIOReactorConfig(
            IOReactorConfig.custom()
                .setSocksProxyAddress(InetSocketAddress("mysockshost", 1234))
                .build()
        )
        .build()
