Does proximo even works in Node.js?

[choonyme]

I've tried everything I can to forward my traffic to Proximo. The instruction says it's supposed to be "hassle free" by using the wrapper. I've used the wrapper in node.js, with my Profile pointing to bin/proximo node [myapp] and now all my connection fails and timed out. Is there problem with the wrapper? I'm only using it to connect to FTP server.

I too am having issues with this. Is anyone looking at this?

Same issue here, all requests to my app time out when using Proximo.

Same issue, no outgoing requests are working through proximo wrapper

I too have been unable to get proximo to work with node.js. I have forwarded this issue to Heroku support...hopefully they will respond here.

@apitts any joy?

Afraid not. They told me to manually reference the proxy and that is what I have done and it works. On 11 Jan 2016 10:27 pm, "Dominic Barker" notifications@github.com wrote:

Yes, but it didn't work for me exactly as is. Here is what I ended up using...context is a call to Mailchimp (baseURL is their baseURL). Obviously not so bad if you just have one API as I did...if you have to proxy many...well it'll be a bit painful.

  request.post(baseURL + '/lists/' + listId + '/members' , {
    'proxy': process.env.PROXIMO_URL + ':80',
    'auth': {
      'user': 'mailchimpTakesAnyString',
      'pass': process.env.YOUR_API_KEY
    },
    body: body,
    json: true
  }, function(error, response, body) {
    callback(error, response, body);
  });

Thanks! worked for me too.

Anyone figure this out? I'm trying to connect to postgres using proximo, seems to just hang.
