Configured URLs cannot use https

[garethbowen]

When configuring the app to use a custom RapidPro deployment, the code automatically prefixes http but we need to use https. We should be able to specify which protocol to use.

Happy to take a PR if you want to submit one.

Facing this same challenge, any workaround this issue? The app is failing to sync with the server as the POST message is prefixing http:// and port number 8000 to any IP address I enter, but our server is not recognizing both as it's using https:// and 443.

Again, happy to take a PR for this.

does this mean no one has submitted a PR for this issue before? Would have thought it to be an urgent issue. :)

I believe this is the code in question and would gladly send a PR but would'nt want to practice on a live project.
// if our endpoint is an ip, add :8000 to it if (endpoint.startsWith("ip")) { endpoint = "http://" + ip; if (!ip.contains(":")) { endpoint += ":8000"; } } String endpoint = RapidPro.get().getServerURL(context);
