Using an HTTP Proxy for HTTP POST's, GET's, etc.

See more HTTP Examples

Demonstrates how to use an HTTP proxy for HTTP requests. Lua

local chilkat = require("chilkat")

-- This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
-- See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

local http = chilkat.Http.new()

-- To use an HTTP proxy, set the following properties

-- Use a domain name or IP address.
http.proxy_domain = "172.16.16.24"

-- The port at which your HTTP proxy is listening for HTTP requests.
http.proxy_port = 808

-- If your HTTP proxy requires authentication...
http.proxy_login = "myProxyLogin"
http.proxy_password = "myProxyPassword"

-- At this point, all Chilkat HTTP methods for sending POST's, GET's, or anything else
-- will use the HTTP proxy.  The remainder of your code is the same.
-- Using an HTTP proxy only requires the above properties to be set beforehand...
