Help: Use this proxy
|
||
|
|
---
|
||
|
|
Use the specified proxy.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The proxy string can be specified with a protocol:// prefix. No protocol
|
||
|
|
specified or http:// will be treated as HTTP proxy. Use socks4://, socks4a://,
|
||
|
|
socks5:// or socks5h:// to request a specific SOCKS version to be used.
|
||
|
|
(The protocol support was added in curl 7.21.7)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
HTTPS proxy support via https:// protocol prefix was added in 7.52.0 for
|
||
|
|
OpenSSL, GnuTLS and NSS.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Unrecognized and unsupported proxy protocols cause an error since 7.52.0.
|
||
|
|
Prior versions may ignore the protocol and use http:// instead.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the port number is not specified in the proxy string, it is assumed to be
|
||
|
|
1080.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This option overrides existing environment variables that set the proxy to
|
||
|
|
use. If there's an environment variable setting a proxy, you can set proxy to
|
||
|
|
\&"" to override it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All operations that are performed over an HTTP proxy will transparently be
|
||
|
|
converted to HTTP. It means that certain protocol specific operations might
|
||
|
|
not be available. This is not the case if you can tunnel through the proxy, as
|
||
|
|
one with the --proxytunnel option.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
User and password that might be provided in the proxy string are URL decoded
|
||
|
|
by curl. This allows you to pass in special characters such as @ by using %40
|
||
|
|
or pass in a colon with %3a.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The proxy host can be specified the exact same way as the proxy environment
|
||
|
|
variables, including the protocol prefix (http://) and the embedded user +
|
||
|
|
password.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
