libproxy(3lib) Interface Libraries libproxy(3lib) NAME libproxy - automatic proxy configuration management library DESCRIPTION libproxy provides interfaces to get the proxy that will be used to access network resources. It uses various plugins to get proxy configu- ration via different mechanisms (e.g. environment variables or desktop settings). The envvar plugin gets the proxy configuration from the http_proxy and no_proxy environment variables. The file plugin gets proxy configura- tion from /etc/proxy.conf and $HOME/.proxy.conf. The Gnome plugin gets the proxy configuration via Gsettings. The order in which each proxy mechanism will be checked is specified by the environment PX_CONFIG_ORDER. The default order is "USER,SES- SION,SYSTEM,envvar". USER, SESSION and SYSTEM are all categories of proxy configuration. envvar means the plugin which gets proxy setting from the environment variable "http_proxy". The Gnome plugin belongs to the SESSION category, so the Gnome settings will be checked before the environment variable. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES See environ(7) for descriptions of environment variables. http_proxy URL of HTTP proxy to use. no_proxy A comma delimited list of hosts (or domains) for which proxying is not to be used.
