how to configure http proxy with user and passsword?

[zhongxiaoma]

Hi:
I'm trying to get this working as part of the Yocto build system on Ubuntu Server 16.04.1 with HTTP proxy.

from README file , i don't see any description how to configure proxy user and passwd, such as for genereal http_proxy which need indicate user and passwd:
export http_proxy='http://user:[e-mail]:8080/'

so, i follow the previous pattern, modify like this:
: ${PROXY:=user:[e-mail]}
: ${PORT:=8080}
: ${PROXY_TYPE:=http-connect}

after this configure, git command also failed,
git ls-remote https://github.com/msgpack/msgpack-c.git
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/msgpack/msgpack-c.git/': Failed to connect to github.com port 443: Connection refused

please give me some advice ,thanks alot

Hello,

At the moment you cannot set the username/password in the PROXY variable.

• The way to get around this is will be to set PROXY:=proxy.xxxx.com.

• Run the install script (chameleonsocks.sh --install)

• Get a shell in the container (docker exec -ti chameleonsocks bash)

• Add your login details to /etc/redsocks.conf

Example :
redsocks {
local_ip = 0.0.0.0;
local_port = 1080;
ip = proxy.xxx.com;
port = 8080;
type = http-connect;
login = "your_username";
password = "your_password";
}

• Restart chameleonsocks
  ./chameleonsocks.sh --stop
  ./chameleonsocks.sh --start

This should do it.
I will add PASSWORD authentication as soon as I have a bit a free time.
