Feature request: be able to specify localhost with port as endpoint using config

[robpridham-bbc]

As a developer, I would like to be able to direct the ATI library's network requests to e.g. https://localhost:9000/endpoint so that I can write instrumented end-to-end tests that use a mock HTTP server on the device and verify that the right calls are made.

In the documentation for Configuration, it appears that we can set subdomain, domain and path in order to achieve this.

However:

• It would be good to be able to omit subdomain, perhaps by specifiying an empty string as log or logSSL. Currently this seems to stop production of all requests, and it looks like the code in Builder will always add a period separator, so that's probably why. To send to localhost we would therefore have to use a workaround with a subdomain of 127 and a domain of 0.0.1.

• It would be good to be able to specify a port. This is not currently a documented option in config.

Thanks!

@robpridham-bbc Thanks for your feedback and sorry for the delay!
We will think about adding the capacity to manage a collect endpoint without any period.
Regarding the port, you can already add it in the domain configuration, this should work.
In your case, you should probably use this configuration:
log/logSSL: 127
domain: 0.0.1:9000
