HTTP timeout (with proxy?) #623

Closed ghost closed 5 years ago

ghost commented 5 years ago

Hello,

I tried both the brew and python (3.7) version but both fail to load with a http timeout. I have to use a socks5 proxy to access reddit at all so I can't test rtv without it. Is the local web server implementation of rtv incompatible with proxies?

How are you using your proxy to connect?

I gave that a try, launching with these: HTTPS_PROXY="socks5://127.0.0.1:1086" rtv HTTPS_PROXY="socks5://localhost:1086" rtv but I get InvalidSchema for both, and I'm using a local socks5 proxy

Edit: nvm I didn't install the request[socks], let me try again

Working now, thanks for the help! Maybe put this in the documentation?
