Network.HTTP.Proxy

Description

Handling proxy server settings and their resolution.

Synopsis

Documentation

data Proxy Source

HTTP proxies (or not) are represented via Proxy, specifying if a proxy should be used for the request (see setProxy)

Constructors

NoProxy	Don't use a proxy.
Proxy String (Maybe Authority)	Use the proxy given. Should be of the form "http://host:port", "host", "host:port", or "http://host". Additionally, an optional `Authority` for authentication with the proxy.

noProxy :: Proxy Source

fetchProxy :: Bool -> IO Proxy Source

fetchProxy flg gets the local proxy settings and parse the string into a Proxy value. If you want to be informed of ill-formed proxy configuration strings, supply True for flg. Proxy settings are sourced from the HTTP_PROXY environment variable, and in the case of Windows platforms, by consulting IE/WinInet's proxy setting in the Registry.

parseProxy :: String -> Maybe Proxy Source

parseProxy str translates a proxy server string into a Proxy value; returns Nothing if not well-formed.
