Set the PROXY_HOST environment variable to an accessible DNS name (or IP Address) of the proxy server.
Usage Tip
Configure via environment variables in a shell script, for example:
export PROXY_PORT=80
export PROXY_HOST=$(curl --silent http://checkip.amazonaws.com)
export PROXY_USERNAME=proxy-user
# Next, generate a password or change as needed.
export PROXY_PASSWORD=$(uuidgen | head -c 8 | sed "y/ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz/")
# The password **will** be printed to the console in development, otherwise it'll be replaced with '*******'.
# Start the proxy server
easy-proxyDevelopment
npm start -- --username test --password test123You can define config via environment variables and/or CLI args:
PROXY_USERNAME=test PROXY_PASSWORD=test123 npm start# Set values for current shell session
export PROXY_USERNAME=test
export PROXY_PASSWORD=test123
npm start -- --port 5050Client-side Testing
Start a proxy and grab the printed proxy URI. We'll need to use it to configure client access.
To test quickly with curl:
Set your PROXY_URI environment variable, then run:
# Example PROXY_URI:
#PROXY_URI=http://test:test123@localhost:5050
curl --include \
--head \
--show-error \
--proxytunnel \
--proxy "$PROXY_URI" http://www.bing.com/
