Proxy Support

Is there a way to force this to use a proxy server not a reverse proxy like a socks 5 proxy

It looks like this can be set using an environment variable. Do me a favor and try setting this environment variable. If it works for you, then I will add a feature that sets this environment variable from the INI file.

So do I put this in the python code or in the ini file?

For me to test this I would need to build the proxy first. The idea I had with this was potentially to be used instead of port knocking , and then I had the idea. If we could get both to work. If proxy fails use port knocking as backup.

You would set it as an environment variable

A quick test in Windows indicates that neither setting http_proxy nor https_proxy environment variables to the HTTP proxy I use has an effect on PVE-VDICclient. Proxy support would be a very welcome addition.

I found this not sure if it is useful for this or not. https://www.scrapingbee.com/blog/python-requests-proxy/
