import '@webex/internal-plugin-mercury';
import WebexCore from '@webex/webex-core';
const webex = new WebexCore();
webex.internal.mercury.WHATEVER
For consumers who are not using the SDK via the browser it may be necessary to configure a proxy agent in order to connect with Mercury and open a Websocket in a proxy environment.
This can be done by configuring an agent as part of a DefaultMercuryOptions config object as shown below. The agent object will then be injected into the SDK and used in the Mercury plugin during WebSocket construction as an option property, allowing a connection to be established via the specified proxy url.
const webex = require(`webex`);
const HttpsProxyAgent = require('https-proxy-agent');
let httpsProxyAgent = new HttpsProxyAgent(url.parse(proxyUrl));
webex.init({
config: {
defaultMercuryOptions: {
agent: httpsProxyAgent
},
...
}
});
