How to use behind a network proxy¶

See Requests official documentation

Passing as CLI option¶

the proxy configuration is scoped to the QDT execution.
it supports only one URL for both HTTP and HTTPS

qdt --proxy-http "http://user:password@proxyserver.intra:8765"

Using environment variables¶

Generic `HTTP_PROXY` and `HTTPS_PROXY`¶

it allows a specific URL by protocol (scheme)

Custom `QDT_PROXY_HTTP`¶

it avoids potential conflict with “classic” proxy settings
it allows to use a specific network proxy for QDT (can be useful for some well controlled systems)

Example on Windows PowerShell¶

Only for the QDT command scope:

$env:QDT_PROXY_HTTP='http://user:password@proxyserver.intra:8765'; qdt -vvv

At the shell session scope:

> $env:QDT_PROXY_HTTP='http://user:password@proxyserver.intra:8765'
> qdt -vvv
