Error infracost register behind proxy

[olahouze]

Hello

Context

I'm in a company that filters the internet flow behind a web proxy

When I want to make the following order

infracost register

I have an error

Error: Error sending API request: Post "https://dashboard.api.infracost.io/apiKeys?source=cli-register": dial tcp 3.139.172.42:443: i/o timeout

Request

Can you add a functionality to allow to configure the module with a web proxy ?

Sincerely

Hi @olahouze. Have you set a https_proxy environment variable in your terminal to point to your company's HTTPS proxy server? I think this should work

To unblock you just now though, you can sign up directly at https://dashboard.infracost.io/ and retrieve an API key from your "Org Settings".

Hi @alikhajeh1 I set up all required env variables to use proxy but getting the error below

main└─ $ infracost breakdown --path .

Hello

I don't have the rights on my company's computer to modify the environment variables. Here is the reason of my request: to be able to pass the proxy parameters directly in the command line of the tool (for that I have the rights)

Good news but same problem : after put API KEY, communication KO because no proxy parameter

@SerhiiSokolov this looks like it's still hitting the proxy. Do you have the exact commands you ran to set the proxy variables?

@olahouze out of interest does it work if you add the env var inline and run the infracost cli manually, e.g:

https_proxy=https://<PROXY> infracost breakdown ...

Another option we might have is to include it in the Infracost config file once we add support for that to VS Code.

@olahouze we just released a new version of the Infracost VS Code Extension (v0.2.11) that supports using a config file. The config file also supports env variables being defined, so I was wondering if you could possibly test that?
