Using default Elasticsearch Transport (urllib3) is problematic when using proxies

[resetreboot]

We are using the lib behind a proxy to connect to the elasticsearch. As the lib does not use the Requests transport, the program does not use the envvars HTTP_PROXY nor HTTPS_PROXY, and thus the connection fails.

Is there any way to set up django-logging so it creates the Elasticsearch with requests transport option enabled?

Thanks for the amazing work!

I will have to look into this. I haven't used the elasticsearch library that much, so I don't know much about it. If we can pass ENV vars to it, maybe the ones you've mentioned, then it shouln't be a problem to change django-loggin to make use of that.
You're welcome to contribute if you have an idea on how to fix this.
