Description

We should allow the user to specify a proxy to be used with the Rudder cURL calls

(Currently, we want to disable proxies for curl calls because they often are in the way and block Rudder, but this should be at the discretion of the user.)

Bumping this due to popular demand :p

Hello François, can you please tell me if adding a text box in the administration tab that would provision a system variable (like &RUDDER_SYSTEM_GLOBAL_PROXY&) that we could use to specify an optional proxy to give to curl during inventories would be a good idea to solve this ?

Idea would be that:
  • (Default) Variable is empty (not non-existent!): We give curl --proxy '&RUDDER_SYSTEM_GLOBAL_PROXY&' => --proxy '' => Nothing changes compared to what we have currently.
  • Variable contains proxy.example.com => --proxy '&RUDDER_SYSTEM_GLOBAL_PROXY&' => --proxy 'proxy.example.com' => Proxy is supported :D
