Imgix Proxy with Signed Key failing

[BenjaminGibbs]

I appear to be running in to a problem, where I trying to use a proxy with a signed key.

If I create a URL via the tool in the web portal it works fine, if I do it via the api it gives an error about the signed key being wrong.

The library works fine for me if have a web folder setup, but I have a scenario where I needed to use the proxy, does anyone have any ideas what I am doing wrong? - I can't see any tests in the library for testing the proxy combination with a signed key.

My Test Code:

Dim l As New List(Of String)
l.Add("DOMAIN")
Dim urlBuilder = New UrlBuilder(l.ToArray, True)
urlBuilder.SignKey = "KEY"
Console.WriteLine(urlBuilder.BuildUrl("URL"))

This should be working, according to this test: https://github.com/raynjamin/Imgix-CSharp/blob/master/Imgix-CSharp-Tests/ImgixBlueprintTests.cs#L65

Can you send through the output URLs you get from the web tool and this library?

This is the output I get from signing using a proxy setup;

@BenjaminGibbs sorry for the miscommunication, could you send through the URL you're passing to the library to get https://osc-proxy.imgix.net/https:%2F%2Fs-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com%2Foriginals%2F36%2F70%2Fb6%2F3670b61e7e8e43d68626c0d0347b73b9.jpg?s=ebc1d9aa6cd2df5c71b9f8bf19293008 as output?

[paulstraw]

The error is being caused by the unencoded : in the https://. If that's encoded properly, it works as expected: https://osc-proxy.imgix.net/https%3A%2F%2Fs-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com%2Foriginals%2F36%2F70%2Fb6%2F3670b61e7e8e43d68626c0d0347b73b9.jpg?s=ebc1d9aa6cd2df5c71b9f8bf19293008

[BenjaminGibbs]

So this is my code:

Dim l As New List(Of String)
l.Add("osc-proxy.imgix.net")
Dim urlBuilder = New UrlBuilder(l.ToArray, True)
urlBuilder.SignKey = "xxx"
Console.WriteLine(urlBuilder.BuildUrl("https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/36/70/b6/3670b61e7e8e43d68626c0d0347b73b9.jpg"))

However great spot with the URL being wrong, the error appears to be with visual studio. I was using the console.writeline as per above, when I clicked on the URL in the output window VS transformed it from

https://osc-proxy.imgix.net/https%3A%2F%2Fs-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com%2Foriginals%2F36%2F70%2Fb6%2F3670b61e7e8e43d68626c0d0347b73b9.jpg?s=ebc1d9aa6cd2df5c71b9f8bf19293008

to

https://osc-proxy.imgix.net/https:%2F%2Fs-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com%2Foriginals%2F36%2F70%2Fb6%2F3670b61e7e8e43d68626c0d0347b73b9.jpg?s=ebc1d9aa6cd2df5c71b9f8bf19293008

If I copied and paste it directly it works fine, thanks for your help - sorry for taking up your time.

Oh, awesome! Glad it's actually working. It's funny how our most useful tools can sometimes be our worst enemies, too!
