I have a kafka producer written in Go using the confluent-kafka-go bindings.

I want my kafka producer to establish a connection to a kafka broker that is behind an HTTP proxy that supports HTTP CONNECT tunneling.

Does librdkafka support this? Does confluent-kafka-go support this? If yes, please point me to the relevant documentation or provide a code snippet illustrating how this is done.

If it is not supported, how hard would be it be to add support?

These clients only use Kafka TCP protocol; they don't perform content negotiation or establish a connection with an HTTP CONNECT method.

If you want to use HTTP protocol, you'll need to use an HTTP client
