Several endpoints not working expected behind proxy #41

Open HuangStanley050 opened 4 years ago

HuangStanley050 commented 4 years ago

Issues working on company machines with proxy setting

login endpoint would time out connecting to the mlab
external call to https://cognito-idp inside the lambda would fail too within company network or off.
fetching Contentful API would take extra long as well.

Tested on machines that doesn't have proxy setting configured and working fine

Connecting with mongoDB might not be a big issue, can always spin up a local MongoDB dev or docker locally. However, unsure why HTTP request fails within the lambda functions

Trying to set up a local docker running our Mongo db to resolve the issue. Optionally can also use existing data dump from mlab
