How to resolve org.elasticsearch.common.compress.Compressor interface and netty dependency trouble?

Hi kimchy, hi all,

I'm trying to set up a kind of a transport plugin that uses netty, for I'd
like to play with websockets for publish/subscribe.

Because the netty dependency is shaded, I duplicated the maven dependency
for netty.

But this does not work. In org.elasticsearch.transport.netty, the
org.elasticsearch.common.compress.Compressor interface is used:

Compressor compressor = CompressorFactory.compressor(buffer);

with "buffer" being an org.jboss.netty.buffer.ChannelBuffer. Because of the
shading in ES, the ChannelBuffer becomes
org.elasticsearch.common.netty.buffer.ChannelBuffer. As a result, the code
is n longer compilable, because CompressorFactory.compressor() does not
accept my duplicated original netty class.

Is it possible to resolve this?

Am I forced to remove compressing in plugin code? Should I open an issue?
Maybe it is an unwanted issue of the new compress lzf feature.

I would be glad if it is somehow possible to get rid of the nasty
dependency shading at all, it would make life of plugin authors much easier.

Best regards,

Jörg
