Support HTTP proxy
From chadmill on June 18, 2010 22:39:19
Any HTTP-based protocol should have an API that permits inserting HTTP proxy information.

First attempt at support.

Would it be possible to mock up some proxy server to we can test this?

Hi Dirkjan, I have a new patch for this that is battle tested. I can also provide testing information. If you are willing to do an official 0.9.1 / 0.10.0 for this feature I'd love to contribute it.
Let me know, Joan (@wohali / freenode Wohali)

Here is the unified patch.
Testing approach:
-
Install Java and browsermob-proxy from http://bmp.lightbody.net/ .
-
On any UNIX, run browsermob-proxy and configure a proxy at port 9091 via:
/path/to/browsermob-proxy -po 9090 >~/proxy.log.$$ 2>&1 & curl -X POST -d "port=9091" http://localhost:9090/proxy >/dev/null 2>&1
-
Test script:
server = Server(proxy_settings={"port": "9091"}) # http and localhost are defaulted db = server.create('python-tests') ...
- Validate with ~/proxy.log.
that all expected requests went through the web proxy, not direct.
Please let me know ASAP if there are any problems you encounter, I am highly motivated to help you get a point release out with this patch ;)

Has there been any progress on this? I would like to specify a proxy so that I can use Fiddler to study my the traffic generated by my CouchDB/Python application. I think that this cannot be done without proxy support.
There has been no progress on this. Unfortunately, I'm also no longer actively maintaining couchdb-python. Consider using https://github.com/cloudant/python-cloudant instead (unless you're interested in taking over maintainership).
