Proxy support

[eddie-dunn]

Any plans to include support for running sconsify behind a proxy?

[fabiofalci]

Never thought about it. Please, can you suggest how to use/configure?

[eddie-dunn]

Usage example

$ sconsify -h | grep proxy
-proxy <proxy>             Specify a proxy in the form [user:passwd@]proxy.server:port
$ sconsify -proxy exampleproxy.com:5432

(In my case I don't need user/pw for the proxy, so I personally don't consider that feature very important.)

Ideally, sconsify should automatically pick up proxy settings from the environment, like many other applications. E.g., use the values of http_proxy and/or https_proxy if they are set. Then I suppose you would also need to add a -no-proxy flag, however.

I think you could use http_proxy environment variables.
