Description

Context

The current implementation of the REST publisher sink supports sending HTTP request  to a defined URI, that is provided by a user [1]. 

Problem

The current solution has limited support for

• HTTP requests other than POST (e.g., PUT to update)
• endpoints with that required /${id1}/status/${id2}/ with properties from event, e.g. sensorId field
• auth option other than directly injecting it in the URI (if required)
• SSL option (if required)
• Additional headers

Solution

Add missing features to REST publisher.
