Hi:

For the phoebus implementations of 'xnds:'... and 'pbraw:...' it's a little less work to add a preference setting like 'use_https' instead of registering additional handlers for 'xndss:' and 'pbraws:'.
Would that work for you?
Then I can easily add that.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] phoebus DataBrowser - ArchiverAppliance data retrieval through SSL-only reverse-proxy

Hi all,

internally, all our archiver appliances are accessible via http-protocol and pbraw-URLs are mapped to 'http' protocol hardcoded in e.g. the phoebus/DataBrowser.
For many years, we provided external access for data-retrieval to these through a simple http reverse proxy.

My problem is, that now our official reverse-proxy server will only provide SSL-secured access via https-links - which is absolutely understandable, but breaks data access for now.

Is there already a way (or workaround or plan) to enable access via https-protocol?
Probably something like 'pbraws' as the protocol specifier?

The same problem exists for accessing old ChannelArchiver ArchiveDataServer and xnds-URLs, but I can see, that noone really wants to put effort into this anymore...

All the best and stay healthy,
Thomas
